  Speaker 2: Did a thirty two year old mother lounge and frolic
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: on a Puerto Rican beach while her little baby died
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: in a playpen. As a matter of fact, I don't
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: like listening to it, but as I've told so many juries,
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: I can't even count them anymore. You can't turn away
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: from the evidence. You're on this jury. You're in the
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: box and you have to look at it and you
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: have to listen to it, whether you hate it or not.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: I have listened over and over to a neighbor's ring
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: doorbell cam. You can't see anything, but I can hear.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: I can hear reportedly baby Jalen screaming. Now, this is
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: on about day three of no food, no water, no mommy,
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: no daddy, no nothing. Now I'm going to find out
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: from a veteran investigative reporter, is it true that this
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: little baby girl, just sixteen months old, was found in
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: a playpen like a pack and play, with excrement, her
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: own faces, her own poop smeared on her lips, in
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: her mouth dried as a little thing was trying to
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: find something to eat?

  Speaker 2: you have to listen very carefully. But I hear baby
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Jayleen screaming for mommy. Did mommy actually go this? Ohio?
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Mom to lounge and frolic? And I say frolic because
• 3:02

• 3:11
  Speaker 2: beautiful young woman. My boy, can looks be deceiving? Is

• 3:29
  Speaker 2: year old daughter? Joining me in all star panel to
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: makes sense of what we know? But right now, but
• 3:36

• 3:42
  Speaker 2: joining US anchor and multimedia reporter at wo Io Siah,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: thank you for being with us. Let me understand something.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: I'm about to play a nine to one one call.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Now is this nine one one call? I want you
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: to listen to it, Sea and tell me it is
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: what happens when mommy finally drags home.
• 4:05

  Speaker 2: for ten days? Okay, Sea, New Yorker joining US w
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: O I O t V. See again, thank you for
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: being with us. When was the night on one call?
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Mate?
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: It was made the day she came back on June sixteenth,
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: And again, prosecutors told us that that nine one one
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: called came after she returned and after she had redressed
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: the baby. So the baby Jalen had.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Already stop stop stop stop? Uh oh See New Yorker,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: did you.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Just say after she refter dressed the baby, after.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: She redressed the baby, And that was new information that
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: came out in court? And I felt I watched people
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: in court their mouths just they were covering their mouths.
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: I mean, we were just shocked. That was shocking information.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: Okay, before I play the rest of the nine one
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: one call, uh Sean New Yorker joining US w O IOTV.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Derek Smith, did you know the allegation that your client
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: came home?
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: Now?
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Wait, sees the baby, then redresses the baby and nice
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: fresh clothes, I guess, and then screams into the phone.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: You did or did you learn that.
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: It did not happen?
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: That did not happen?
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: Okay, all right, guys, Derek Smith wins a lot of cases.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Okay, did you just see him? Look, look, look right
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: at me and go that didn't happen. That did not happen.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: You know what, if I'm ever charged with a felony,
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: I'm calling Derek Smith. He looked right at the camera
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: and said that did not happen. Okay, let's listen to
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: more of that nine one one called Brace Yourself.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Derek Smith? Why why? Why? Why? Because you left her
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: alone for ten days? That's why? Why? Why?
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: Uh?
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Derek?
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Again, why is your client screaming into nine on one climbing?
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Why? Why? Why? When she left the baby alone for
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: ten days? What did she think was gonna happen?
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: I asked myself that question. Still today, we still don't
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: have a clear answer. She couldn't articulate why she did it,
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: what she was thinking when she just up and left
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: her with a couple bottles of formula and some baby
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: cookies and crackers in her pack.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: And play when she up and left.
• 7:37
  Speaker 6: There's more to that nine one one call to that
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: wasn't necessarily played at the sentencing. She did perform CPR
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: on Jayleen after that when Jayleen, you know, according to
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: my clients, squeezed.
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: Her finger and she was saying that she still was
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: not gone.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: It's okay, hold on right there, Let's not put perfume
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: on the pig.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: And you say gone, I know what that means, because
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: for the longest time and even now, it's hard for
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: me to say these words. Keith is dead. That was
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: my fiance, Keith. I would say gone, he's gone. So
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: let's just force ourselves to say the truth. Derek Smith
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: is a high profile lawyer who represents Crystal Candelario. When
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: you say your client came in and squeezed her baby's
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: finger and that she wasn't gone, you mean your client
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: says she wasn't dead.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Is that right?
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: That's correct?
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: To doctor Eric Easton, doctor Eric Easton joining US Board
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Certified Forensic Pathologist and consultant on Facebook. Eric August Easton,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: doctor Ason, thank you for being with us. How long
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: can a human live without anything to drink?
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: Probably no more than a couple of days is what
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: we usually say.
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: I've had.
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: I'm aware of cases that I had in Georgia where
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: an infant was left for a couple of days and
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: the belief was that she could have survived no more
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: than like three or four days.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: At best, certainly not ten days.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: No, if the baby had a bottle of formula, or
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: let's just say two bottles of formula and the pack
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: and play and the baby had that, how long could
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: the baby live a.
• 9:36
  Speaker 7: Couple more days?
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: Of course, but it's tough to say. You know, each
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: individual is different, so it's very tough to say exactly
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: how long this baby would have lived. So many factors
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: to consider, but it would have prolonged the survival time
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: for sure.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace, the so called killer Ohio mom,
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Crystal Candelario lounges on a Puerto Rican beach after leaving
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: her baby daughter.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Just a few months old, for ten days.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: And oh, dear Lord in Heaven, you know how many
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: people across this country would pay lots of money to
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: have a beautiful baby like that? Okay, what more do
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: we know? Listen to Dave Matt Crime Online.
• 10:28
  Speaker 8: Crystal Candelaria is off on a ten day whirlwind of
• 10:32
  Speaker 8: adventure in romance. Ring doorbell video from a neighbor shows
• 10:35
  Speaker 8: Candelaria hauling her suitcase to a car as she heads
• 10:38
  Speaker 8: out of town, and she's posting pictures from the beginning
• 10:41
  Speaker 8: of her trip about her best life adventure back at
• 10:44
  Speaker 8: home in Cleveland, Ohio in the late night early morning hours.
• 10:48
  Speaker 8: That same ring doorbell camera that catches Candelaria loading her
• 10:51
  Speaker 8: suitcase into a car before leaving now is picking up
• 10:55
  Speaker 8: the faint sounds of a crying baby.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: Oh, I've played it for you. I'm not going to
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: play it again. Joining me right now.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Doctor Heidie Green, clinical psychologist and trauma specialist, author of
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: The Path to Self Love and World Domination. I don't
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: know if I want to go that far. You can
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: find her at doctor Heidigreen dot com. Doctor Heidie, thank
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: you for.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Being with us. What does that mean?
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: A world wind trip of adventure and romance? Earlier this morning,
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: I could hardly think straight because I know my daughter
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: has a math, a chemistry and what is the other one?
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Ap literature test and she worked her fingers to the
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: bone for days. She's been studying till eleven thirty and
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: twelve at night, and my son has the same rigorous
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: testing schedule that was earlier this morning. I could hardly
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: think straight because I was worried, not whether they'll pass,
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: but I was worried about them, and there was nothing
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: I could do to help them get through a seemingly
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: very very difficult cult trial. How do you leave for
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: ten days of adventure and romance and get on a
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: plane and fly to Puerto Rico and leave the baby
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: in a pack and play with a bottle? How does
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: that happen? Adventure and romance my rear end.
• 12:17
  Speaker 9: It's unfathomable, truly, And when we're looking at it from
• 12:23
  Speaker 9: a mental health perspective, there can be questions such as,
• 12:27
  Speaker 9: was there were there cognitive issues? Did she not understand
• 12:31
  Speaker 9: that her child would die?
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: But wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, hold on, Nider, Heidi,
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: I'm certainly not a shrink. You are the high profile
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: clinical psychologist, not me. But if you know how to
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: wind your way through a major metropolitan airport and get
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: through TSA and pull out your driver's license and put
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: your face up and do this and that and find
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: the gate and get on when they call you and drink, drink,
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: and then frolic and I know Derek Smitha hates that world.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: His client was frolicking on the beach doing jigs and dances.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: There are other photos of her arms up in the
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: air like she's doing, you.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Know, a yoga stretch. Stop a mommy. She just not
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: mentally ill.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: If you can wind your way through an airport like
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: the one in Ohio, you been.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: To that airport?
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: Uh uh No, she is not suffering any mental deficiency.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: She's not.
• 13:32
  Speaker 9: It doesn't appear that she is suffering from any kind
• 13:36
  Speaker 9: of cognitive deficiency. So one could surmise that she had
• 13:42
  Speaker 9: at least average intelligence, and she would at the very
• 13:45
  Speaker 9: least understand that leaving a baby for ten days is
• 13:50
  Speaker 9: very likely to result in that child's death. Now, does
• 13:54
  Speaker 9: she have a mental illness is a different question. But
• 13:58
  Speaker 9: even people who have depression, anxiety, even more serious mental
• 14:06
  Speaker 9: health disorders still can have an understanding of what would
• 14:11
  Speaker 9: happen to a baby being left for that long. So
• 14:15
  Speaker 9: for me, it's difficult to imagine how there's going to
• 14:19
  Speaker 9: be a defense that says that her mental illness had
• 14:22
  Speaker 9: something to do with this, because having a mental health
• 14:27
  Speaker 9: condition doesn't render you incapable of understanding what would happen
• 14:35
  Speaker 9: to a child after ten days alone.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: You just heard a high profile clinical psychologist, doctor Heidie Green,
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: state that, hey, did she not understand baby dies after
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: you leave it the line for ten days?
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: Halla, Why do you think he threw.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: A bottle of formula in there and some crackers because
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: she knew the baby with eight She's got one seven
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: year old child and this is a sixteen month old baby.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Of course, she knows the baby's gonna get hungry. She
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: knows what happens when a baby doesn't eat or drink.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: See a New Yorker joining me anchor multimedia reporter WOIOTV.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: They're in Ohio, Sia, thank you for being with us.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: This mom knows exactly what she's doing. Look at all
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: these selfies. Okay, she's not leaving much to the imagination,
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: but I'm not the church lady, so I don't care.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: But look at her taking selfies.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Okay, there you go with a full on Kardashian pout
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: with the mouth.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: And there's another one. Oh yeah, there it is. Yeah.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: See those nails, see that lipsticks, see that hair, the makeup.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: This woman is in no way mentally or emotionally deficient.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Uh huh, Siah, what can you tell me about this woman?
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: What I could tell you is that, you know, during
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: all of this, the came out, they showed these photos.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: You know, like you mentioned, we saw tickets, we saw receipts.
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: She was able to get on a plane, she was
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: able to travel. You know, she came back. She was
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: caught on many you know, surveillance videos, and so people
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: there in the courtroom felt a sense they weren't buying it.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: No one was buying that. And you know, this is
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: not to say that she doesn't suffer from some kind
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: of mental illness, but as far as leaving her sixteen
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: month old child alone in that playpen for that long
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: of a period, no one was buying that.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'm with you on that, Derek Smith.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Before I go to bury Golden from US Marshalls Service,
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: Derek Smith, does your client have some sort of a
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: mental deficiency like that I don't know about. Was she
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: having a psychotic break when she was dancing on the
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: Puerto Rican beach while her baby starved?
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: To night faces?
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: Oh, that's what we were searching for. The State.
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: Did their exam evaluated her for the sanity at the
• 17:03
  Speaker 6: time of the act and for just overall her sanity,
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: and then our own expert evaluated her. They did have
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: a provisional diagnosis of borderline personality disorder along with anxiety
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: and depressiment.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Hold on, I got to write that down. Borderline?
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: What borderline personality disorder?
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Can you name.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: One person, one person you graduated with from law school
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: that you're not convinced has some sort of a personality
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: disorder and depression?
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that sets in.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: About week three first year when you find out that's
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: what you got to do the next three years and
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: then have to represent clients.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: You know, did it?
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: I mean that would throw me over the edge. Personality disorder?
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: What personality disorder? Let me cross examining you just a minute.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: What personality disorder?
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Do this woman have? Just a disorder?
• 17:53
  Speaker 6: Well, she was hospitalized in February four what she thought
• 17:58
  Speaker 6: was complex migraines because her old bio he was left
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: side of her body was just numb and she was
• 18:03
  Speaker 6: in bed for days.
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: Her parents took her.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: She seemed to have gotten over that on the beach.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: In Case says, nothing was numb on that beach, all right.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: So what's the personality disorder? Histrionic? Maybe extreme narcissist. Wait, Derek,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: I know your trial record.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, You're not going to win on a narcissistic
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: personality disorder because jurors will hate somebody. You know, Narcissus,
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: the Greek player in mythology who fell in love with
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: his own reflection and ultimately wanted to get closer and
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: closer to his own reflection, fell into the water and
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: I think died. That's the genesis of the narcissistic personality Moniker.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: So somebody thinking of just himself, that's not convincing me.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: Is there anything else you can throw at me? Come on,
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: hit me. I'm ready.
• 18:59
  Speaker 6: So she was taking effects her and depicote, and she was.
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: What is that they're off brand?
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: What that was to treat what they thought was episodes
• 19:13
  Speaker 6: of epilepsy and seizures. Didn't have that, yep. And then
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: the effects her was that was treated to help her migraines.
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: It was supposed to help her pain. But those are
• 19:23
  Speaker 6: all They're both antidepressants, yeah, and they work with the
• 19:28
  Speaker 6: neurotransmitters in the brain. And she's not only taking them.
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: There was a medical record that she was abusing them.
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: She ran out when she shouldn't have, but they refilled it.
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: And then a few weeks before this happened, she ran
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: out and stopped all medications. Another red flag. You can't
• 19:46
  Speaker 6: do that, ask you know, can ask the psychiatrist here
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: on the panel.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: I contain you this much, Derek Smith. She is feeling
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: no pain in these selfies or on the beach. So
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: you're and again this is why he wins cases. He
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: looked right at me and said, her disorder is she
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: thinks about herself all the time, narcissistic, and she has
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: headaches and she was takingsolet epilepsy medication which she really
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: was an epileptic and a flexor what was that.
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: For, Derek?
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: They treated that all headaches for.
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: Right, Okay, So that is not a personality disorder, Doctor
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: Heidie Green just in the gyuest, No, does that equal
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: a personality disorder? Migrain meds and epilepsy meds.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: No, Okay.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: Joining you right now is Barry Golden, former Senior inspector
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: US Marshall Service, owner of Golden Consulting and Investigations.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: Mary Golden.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: This woman was in Puerto Rico, isn't it true? I
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: mean you've gone all over the world apprehending violent fellas.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: Isn't it True's true?
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: When you leave, for instance, the Ohio airport, and you
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: travel out of the country to another country, you have
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: to be able to show your passport, your ID, probably
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: still your COVID shot proof, all sorts of red tape.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: You have to go through to get into Puerto Rico,
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: even though it's one of our territories. Isn't that true?
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: That is true? Nancy, thank you for having me.
• 21:25
  Speaker 10: And those are the things that I thought of when
• 21:28
  Speaker 10: I looked at this case. And the first person and foremost,
• 21:31
  Speaker 10: she thought about the welfare of this child by preparing
• 21:36
  Speaker 10: some bottles of milk or formula, because she thought right
• 21:39
  Speaker 10: then and there before she left for the airport, she
• 21:41
  Speaker 10: packed her luggage, put these bottles into the plate pen,
• 21:44
  Speaker 10: and then thought, well, she needed something to drink.
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: She's going to need something.
• 21:49
  Speaker 10: And then she completely forgot about it, packed her luggage,
• 21:52
  Speaker 10: got in a taxi or drove herself to the airport,
• 21:55
  Speaker 10: and then went through the airport, like you said, like
• 21:58
  Speaker 10: normal people. She did the things that normal people of
• 22:01
  Speaker 10: a normal mental capacity do go through TSA hop on
• 22:05
  Speaker 10: an airplane. She didn't go through TSA with the bazook
• 22:08
  Speaker 10: or handguns or something like that. Crazy. She went as
• 22:11
  Speaker 10: a normal person through the checkpoint, got on a plane,
• 22:14
  Speaker 10: didn't cause any problems on an airplane, landed in Puerto Rico,
• 22:19
  Speaker 10: and did all the things that people do on vacation,
• 22:21
  Speaker 10: go to the beach. She cared for herself. She did
• 22:25
  Speaker 10: not take a shower for ten days. Okay, she ate
• 22:29
  Speaker 10: for ten days. She did all these things that normal
• 22:32
  Speaker 10: people do. And then she comes back and she freaks
• 22:36
  Speaker 10: out that her baby is dead when she gets home.
• 22:39
  Speaker 10: It took her ten days until she finds out and
• 22:42
  Speaker 10: sees her baby lying there in filth to realize this,
• 22:46
  Speaker 10: and then she goes haywire.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: Guys, I want you to hear Anna Faraglia, the prosecutor
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: in this case.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: Listen to what she said.
• 22:56
  Speaker 11: Crystal Candelaria loved the stainable. On six ' four, twenty
• 23:02
  Speaker 11: twenty three, she leaves because there is a receipt that's
• 23:07
  Speaker 11: found in her car that she is in Taylor, Michigan.
• 23:12
  Speaker 11: Unbeknownst to miss Candelario, her neighbors had ring doorbell, and
• 23:17
  Speaker 11: the Cleveland Police Department Homicide Unit has gone.
• 23:22
  Speaker 7: Through six hundred and forty eight.
• 23:27
  Speaker 11: Hours and videos of the ring doorbell which you're going
• 23:32
  Speaker 11: to see in this presentation.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: The state goes through nearly seven hundred hours of ring
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: doorbell video until they hear the baby Jayleen screaming for food,
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: for water, for mommy, anything and more from Anna Farauglia.
• 23:51
  Speaker 7: Listen with regards to Miss Candelaria.
• 23:55
  Speaker 11: She returns to Caiaga County on six ' six at
• 23:59
  Speaker 11: seven forty one am. So at this particular point we
• 24:04
  Speaker 11: have reason to believe that this child was left alone
• 24:07
  Speaker 11: for two days now, and she returns on sixty six,
• 24:12
  Speaker 11: twenty twenty three. Additional cameras show her again at eleven
• 24:25
  Speaker 11: fifty one on sixty six, and on five point twenty
• 24:30
  Speaker 11: four of sixty six, she is taking a suitcase and
• 24:36
  Speaker 11: now leaving Cuyahoga.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: County see New Yorker, joining US anchor multimedia reporter WIOTV.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: In Cleveland, SIA.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: Could you describe the condition Jayleen was in when authorities
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: found her.
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: It was it was heartbreaking. They found the baby severely dehydrated, starved,
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: thirteen pounds, fingernails, oral cavity, caked in feces, her own feces,
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: and I mean it was awful. It was awful, and
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: you know, we knew pieces of that. But to see
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: photos and to hear those cries, it was devastating to
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: hear that. In the courtroom, I witnessed many of the
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: law enforcement that were there wiping away tears and just
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: mountaining open.
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: This little girl's cries echoed through the streets of her.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Neighborhood in the dead of the night.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: This baby girl whimpered, she screamed, she howled, she cried,
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: but no one came to her rescue. Why her mother,
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: Crystal Candelario, was away on a ten day summer vacation
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: and left her alone in a pack and play with a.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Few bottles of milk. That's ill.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: That's all the sixteen month old baby girl screaming, including
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: around one am, two days after mommy leaves her. But
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: where is mommy? Hundreds and hundreds of miles away in
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: Puerto Rico with a male friend. After a few days
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: at the beach, then another stop to Detroit, where she
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: finds her baby caked in feces.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: Her own feces.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: Were Apparently the baby tried to eat her own feces
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: to live. To doctor Eric Eston, renowned forensic pathologist, Doctor Eston,
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: death by starvation or dehydration is a slow and painful death.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: Describe.
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: Yes, so your body runs out of fluids and the
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: body runs out of electrolytes, and it takes a long
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: time for that to occur. And yeah, it's a slow
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: and painful way to go. Very unfortunate doctor.
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: According to documents we've managed to obtain, this little sixteen
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: month old girl, Jayleen, was emaciated, with sunken eyes, dry lips,
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: and faces in her mouth and fingernails. She weighed seven
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: pounds less than she did at her last doctor's visit.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: Seven pounds less. What does that mean.
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: I mean she lost a lot of weight due to
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: lack of nourishment. You know, she was left with just
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: that bottle of formula, but when that ran out, she
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: had then get energy from whatever muscle mass or batty
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: tissue was left. And then when that was all depleted,
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: death is going to occur because there's nothing left to
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: pro long.
• 28:08
  Speaker 12: Life crime stories with Nancy Grace.
• 28:22
  Speaker 11: So when we look at these are items from her phone,
• 28:26
  Speaker 11: her actions indicate to us that she is in Puerto Rico.
• 28:31
  Speaker 7: Having a good time with.
• 28:33
  Speaker 11: Friends, and that there is not a care in the
• 28:39
  Speaker 11: world about the sixteen month old that was left.
• 28:43
  Speaker 7: Alone in the pack and play.
• 28:46
  Speaker 11: These pictures show somebody who is showing some discretion and
• 28:52
  Speaker 11: judgment because she's having a good time. Meanwhile, this child
• 28:56
  Speaker 11: is in a pack and play.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: See New Yorkers joining us w O IOTV. What is
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: a prosecutor talking about Anna for Auglia?
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: What is she talking about? Items from mommy's phone.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: She's talking about all of the social media posts. She's
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: talking about all the photos that she posted while she
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: was away in Puerto Rico, in Detroit, the receipts, the
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: phone calls she made. She was, you know, laying out
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: all of the evidence. What were the pictures and photos
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: she was on the beach, She was you know, with
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: different friends. She was smiling, she was taking selfies, she
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: was having a you know, it looked like she was
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: having a lovely time.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, Derek Smith, you got assigned.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: You you took this case.
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: How do you and I'm going to withhold judgment. I'm
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: curious how do you fight a case?
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: Your defense is going to be some sort of mental
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: impairment or as you said, personally disorder where a jury
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: is going to say, hey, do I believe you are
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: my lion eyes when I'm looking at all these selfies
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: and the good times she's having in Puerto Rico.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Hey, you ever been through you ever been on the
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: international flight?
• 30:13
  Speaker 9: I have.
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: I took one recently and nearly got arrested in Aruba
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: with Nalie Holloway's mother.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: It's taking them all this time.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: They still having arrested Gorn Vandersloop for murder, but they
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: wanted to arrest me and Natalie's mother. That said, I
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: had to go through a lot of cr ap crap
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: to get to Aruba, through customs, through this, through that.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: How do you fight a case full of phone evidence
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: when and you're claiming personality disorder?
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: You don't.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: What do you mean by that? You don't You can't.
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: You can't fight obvious facts.
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: I mean you go in there and try to make
• 30:56
  Speaker 6: up stories that are totally off somewhere. No one's going
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: to believe. You're gonna lose your credibility right from the start.
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: You cannot dispute intersputable facts. It just can't happen.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what, You're right, Derek, And I think
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: that's why you win so many cases, because you take
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: what you've got and then you work with that and
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: you spin it into the best scenario that you can
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: so working with these facts, I hear doctor Heidi Green
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: jumping in, go ahead, doctor Green.
• 31:31
  Speaker 9: Yes, I just wanted to mention that people with personality
• 31:35
  Speaker 9: disorders are everywhere.
• 31:38
  Speaker 7: They aren't murdering people.
• 31:40
  Speaker 9: It's a fairly common mental health condition, as is anxiety,
• 31:45
  Speaker 9: as is depression. And even if this mother had let's say,
• 31:50
  Speaker 9: all of the mental health conditions that have been thrown
• 31:54
  Speaker 9: out here, drug abuse, depression, narcissistic personality, borderline personality disorder,
• 32:01
  Speaker 9: none of these things make a person a murderer. And
• 32:06
  Speaker 9: what's important to remember is that she had ten days here.
• 32:11
  Speaker 7: All she needed was one second, one second.
• 32:15
  Speaker 9: Of clarity that said, oh my gosh, I need to
• 32:19
  Speaker 9: tell someone.
• 32:19
  Speaker 7: I need to tell someone i'm with. I need to
• 32:21
  Speaker 7: call nine one one.
• 32:22
  Speaker 9: I need to call my doctor, I need to call
• 32:24
  Speaker 9: a family member. She wasn't psychotic, at least her attorney
• 32:30
  Speaker 9: hasn't said that. She didn't suffer from a cognitive impairment.
• 32:34
  Speaker 9: At least her attorney hasn't said that, And so it's
• 32:37
  Speaker 9: difficult to believe that, even if she had multiple mental
• 32:41
  Speaker 9: health conditions, that over the course of ten days, she
• 32:44
  Speaker 9: didn't have a single second of clarity that would result
• 32:49
  Speaker 9: in her telling someone that her baby needed help.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: Guys, take a listen to prosecutor Anna for Auglia.
• 32:56
  Speaker 11: Now we turned our attention to June sixteenth, at seven
• 33:00
  Speaker 11: point thirty six am. She is back in Cayahaga County.
• 33:05
  Speaker 11: Her car reappears in front of her house. She goes
• 33:17
  Speaker 11: in and she finds her daughter dead. She takes the
• 33:21
  Speaker 11: time to redress her.
• 33:25
  Speaker 7: And then she calls nine to.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: One one Barry Golden.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: Derek Smith contests that he is Kendeloreo's lawyer. He said
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: the redressing did not occur, and there's a reason he's
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: picking that particular fact to dispute his claim is that
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: defense claim is that his client had multiple personality disorders
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: as she was possibly abusing prescription drugs that put her
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: in an altered mental state. He is contesting. He's going
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: along with the photo evidence that he cannot refute. He's
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: going along with the text evidence that he cannot refute.
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: But he is challenging that one fact by the prosecutor
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: for a very critical reason because if his client took
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: the time in a moment of lucidity and sanity to
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: redress the child, Barry and she clearly knew the implications
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: of what she had done and tried to cover it up.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Agreed, disagree? And why why would.
• 34:26
  Speaker 10: The prosecutor bring those facts into a court of law
• 34:30
  Speaker 10: to a judge if they weren't true. The investigators went
• 34:36
  Speaker 10: to that crime scene, and that would have been easy
• 34:38
  Speaker 10: to determine whether those clothes have been on that child
• 34:42
  Speaker 10: for ten days with feces and all this stuff all
• 34:45
  Speaker 10: over the clothes, or if the clothes were clean. That's
• 34:49
  Speaker 10: clear and concise evidence right there that either she changed
• 34:53
  Speaker 10: the child or they were feces. If this child had
• 34:56
  Speaker 10: feces in her mouth, on her body everywhere, they would
• 34:59
  Speaker 10: have been on the as well. And if these clothes
• 35:02
  Speaker 10: were clean, then she obviously changed the baby. I don't
• 35:05
  Speaker 10: know why the prosecutor would present these facts in a
• 35:09
  Speaker 10: court room to the judge if they weren't facts that
• 35:12
  Speaker 10: came from the investigators.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: Guys, I want you to hear Candelorio on BODYCM what
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: she says to police when they arrived.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: Listen last night.
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: She was screaming.
• 35:26
  Speaker 7: And I see one moment when I was staying take
• 35:30
  Speaker 7: a shower knee and she was she was screaming.
• 35:35
  Speaker 9: I don't know how.
• 35:36
  Speaker 7: Believe she getting pain?
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: Okay about what time was that last night?
• 35:42
  Speaker 13: Maybe I would say it, yeah, okay, So she was screaming,
• 35:46
  Speaker 13: you know, for page in this morning when I would up,
• 35:53
  Speaker 13: you know, I said, I took her into one.
• 35:59
  Speaker 11: When I see her.
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: Seeing New Yorker joining US anchor multimedia reporter WIOTV there
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: in this jurisdiction, Sia. Now I know hearing that statement
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: that his client gave to police was like a knife
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: to the heart because you can no longer claim, hey,
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: she's not lucid, she's crazy. She's on these mats, she's
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: not supposed to be on them. She's out of her mind,
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: personality disorder, migraines. Here she is flying out, lying and
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: very lucid and coherent, and I would like to say,
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: very articulate as she lies to her teeth about being
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: there the night before.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: What is this statement? What does it mean? Sea New Yorker?
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: The video doesn't lie. There were videos, there were phone calls,
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: there were records, the photos. You know, she's sitting there
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: telling the investigators this story, sorry, and it's not matching up.
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: And they know it. They know it's not matching up.
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: It didn't make any sense.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Two, doctor Eric Eson, renowned pathologist and consultant. Doctor Eson.
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: We have been talking about the mom and how she
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: lied and her romantic getaway with an unnamed male boyfriend.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: But I want to bring us back to reality.
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: I know this is a part of your job that
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: you don't like, and I know, Derek Smith, that you
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: don't want to hear this, But these are the facts.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: How would Jayleen have been found? What state would she
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: have been in? You heard emaciated, this little baby's eyes
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: sunken in, feces under her nails, in her mouth, dried
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: where apparently she was trying to eat anything she could find.
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: Describe the saying, h well, we heard a lot about it,
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: you know, feces in the in the bascinette, or it
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: was the pack and play I think it was. You know,
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: this question about the clothing and whether she was redressed,
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: A lot of that is going to be found in
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: the autops of report. So it's going to describe whatever
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: clothing the child was wearing when death occurred, And there's
• 38:23
  Speaker 4: going to be clues in the autops of your report
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: about when the death actually occurred. So if the death occurred,
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: you know, several days before being found, then you're probably
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: going to start seeing signs of decomposition on the body,
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: skin discoloration, and what we call skin slippage, where the
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: skin will start to peel off itself.
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: As please don't trip over that so lightly skin as
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: you say, and this is certainly a euphemism skin slippage
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: that sounds like nada, your your your skirt slipped, But
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: this is when you're skin comes apart your you're decaying
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: and your.
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: Skin peels off itself, Yes, slips right right and see.
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: And it's rare to see signs of decomposition in an
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: infant or a child because most of these deaths occur
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: and the child will be found within minutes or hours later.
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: So you have infants found in an unsafe sleep environment,
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: you know, when the death occurs, you know, minutes or
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: hours later they're found. But it's rare to have a
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: child or an infant be found decomposing.
• 39:33
  Speaker 7: It's pretty rare.
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: And that's what you're going to see when the body
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: starts decomposing.
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: Derek Smith is a very well known defense attorney who
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: took on Crystal Candelario's case. Derek, I just got to
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: ask you something you got in court and you gave
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: it your all.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: You did everything you could for her.
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: Not this case, because I know you can't comment on
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: this case, but how do you deal with defending other
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: cases with such disturbing facts? Because I know, as a
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: prosecutor sometimes going over the court house, I'd have to
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: just pull off the road and just sit there like
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: what what happened?
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: How?
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: How could somebody do this? But in your situation, you
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: have to keep going.
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it wasn't easy.
• 40:30
  Speaker 6: Fortunately a colleague of mind, Patrick Milligan and I, I
• 40:33
  Speaker 6: mean we're able to kind of we both have children,
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: his little older than mind, but we were able to,
• 40:38
  Speaker 6: you know, kind of help each other out when we
• 40:40
  Speaker 6: were struggling with these pictures and some of these facts.
• 40:42
  Speaker 6: And it's good to have, you know, other attorneys to
• 40:45
  Speaker 6: help you kind of through these things because we're human too,
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: and it's it's very difficult to see and even now
• 40:53
  Speaker 6: going over it again, I mean a lot of sleepless
• 40:55
  Speaker 6: nights trying to figure out what the hell she was thinking?
• 41:00
  Speaker 5: What would was that somebody to do something?
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: If I got to give it to you, I got
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: to give it to you. Derek Smith.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: While I completely disagree with you, and I certainly do
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: not want your job. You got in there and you fought,
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: you fought, and you got her the best deal she
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: could have gotten. That judge, I got to say, really
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: gave her hell at sentencing, and you stood right beside
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: her throughout see New Yorker.
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: This is a very tough case for me as a mom.
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: When I think about my twins at that age, they're
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: really premature, so they were really small. But when I
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: hear that ring cam from the neighbor of the baby
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: just screaming for something to eat or drink, or mommy
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: or somebody, and she died in that pack and play,
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: day after day after day, losing seven pounds in ten days.
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: Tell me in that courtroom, how did the judge respond?
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: It was gut wrenching, And the judge even said in
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: his sentencing he said, the baby waited. Baby Jit then
• 42:14
  Speaker 3: waited for as long as she could. You know, ten
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: days you were going. But you know, after the medical
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: examiner and everybody laid out, she waited for as long
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: as she could. You know, she stood at a long
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: and agonizing death, but she waited for somebody to come
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: help her. And there was no help. Her mother was
• 42:37
  Speaker 3: nowhere to be.
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: Found, and I wish I could just take this baby
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: and raise her myself. But now this baby is in
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: heaven and mommy is behind bars.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: Goodbye friend,
