Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: We got a question for American Mamas. Dear Mamas, can
- 0:02Speaker 1: the way a woman reacts after a death reveal that
- 0:05Speaker 1: she committed the murder? Well, let's ask our American Mamas.
- 0:10Speaker 2: Mama, Mama, Mama. Mama told me not to come. She
- 0:18Speaker 2: said that ain't the way to have fun, no.
- 0:22Speaker 1: And joining us now are American Mamas Terry Netterville and
- 0:25Speaker 1: Kimberly Burleson. Is this in reference to that case up
- 0:28Speaker 1: in Massachusetts, the mother who's, well, I guess she, by
- 0:34Speaker 1: saying she was innocent by reasons of insanity, she's admitted
- 0:38Speaker 1: that she killed the kids. But is that basically... her
- 0:42Speaker 1: behavior after, uh, the murder is, is that what this
- 0:45Speaker 1: is about? That her behavior suggests that she was guilty.
- 0:47Speaker 1: Is that what you're getting at?
- 0:48Speaker 3: Well, she actually said she was guilty. So that's a
- 0:50Speaker 3: whole different thing. Guilty.
- 0:51Speaker 2: Well, we're talking about, uh, the girl in Texas from
- 0:55Speaker 2: the nineties already forgot, forgot her name.
- 0:57Speaker 3: Darlie wrote.
- 0:59Speaker 2: She's on death row. Yeah. So her two sons were murdered.
- 1:02Speaker 2: She was cut up really bad. She said an intruder
- 1:05Speaker 2: came in and did it. But a few days after
- 1:07Speaker 2: they died and they buried the boys, they did a
- 1:09Speaker 2: birthday party at their gravesite, uh, where they did silly
- 1:12Speaker 2: string and they were singing happy birthday. Well, in court,
- 1:16Speaker 2: they showed that video and people convicted her based on
- 1:20Speaker 2: her behavior. So I always think, what if you're being
- 1:23Speaker 2: judged on your, if you didn't do something, but people
- 1:26Speaker 2: are thinking, well, you should do this. If you lost somebody,
- 1:29Speaker 2: you wouldn't, you hear it all the time.
- 1:31Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:31Speaker 2: You know, people say she wouldn't act that way if she, you.
- 1:33Speaker 3: Know, did you know that somebody actually brought that silly
- 1:36Speaker 3: string to her, to that party? She did not bring
- 1:38Speaker 3: that herself.
- 1:39Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:40Speaker 3: Somebody else brought that and gave it to her. And
- 1:43Speaker 3: she was trying to probably outwardly to, I'm going to
- 1:47Speaker 3: celebrate my boys. And maybe this will show other people
- 1:49Speaker 3: that you go on and still celebrate that. Maybe that
- 1:51Speaker 3: was what was in her head. Well, that video and
- 1:55Speaker 3: that person who gave her the silly string, that was her,
- 1:58Speaker 3: the end of her. And so now she's been on
- 2:00Speaker 3: death row. But there's some people that you watch and
- 2:03Speaker 3: you think, she's innocent. There's sometimes you watch.
- 2:07Speaker 2: But again, you're doing the same thing. Like you're looking
- 2:09Speaker 2: at her and you're just judging based on.
- 2:11Speaker 3: That's right.
- 2:11Speaker 2: You know, that she's innocent when we don't know.
- 2:14Speaker 3: Right. But think about this. When you go to, well, any,
- 2:17Speaker 3: if you were like me in the, especially the 90s,
- 2:20Speaker 3: early 2000s and watch the ID channel.
- 2:23Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:23Speaker 3: And they would do these prison shows. Well, in prison,
- 2:26Speaker 3: everybody's innocent. Everybody says, I didn't do it. Right. you know,
- 2:30Speaker 3: they've got me in here and I'm innocent. Well, when
- 2:34Speaker 3: the DNA, when they were able to test DNA, you
- 2:37Speaker 3: discovered that a lot of those people in there were
- 2:41Speaker 3: actually innocent of the crime. And if they go back
- 2:44Speaker 3: and they watch the news clips of them, you can
- 2:46Speaker 3: see and sense my gosh, I would have thought they
- 2:50Speaker 3: were innocent by the way that they're responding. They were
- 2:52Speaker 3: so clueless about everything, but yet they got convicted and
- 2:56Speaker 3: they were given, if not the death sentence, many.
- 3:01Speaker 1: Decades in jail. Yeah, there have been a lot of
- 3:03Speaker 1: people that have been cleared on DNA evidence.
- 3:04Speaker 3: That's right.
- 3:05Speaker 1: And there have been others that have been convicted on
- 3:07Speaker 1: DNA evidence where it solved a crime that hadn't been solved.
- 3:10Speaker 2: It was like how many people are convicted based on
- 3:13Speaker 2: others judging how they're responding to certain things. There's a big,
- 3:16Speaker 2: well-known case. I won't say her name just because she's
- 3:19Speaker 2: still here, but in Shreveport. And she was one of
- 3:22Speaker 2: my mom and dad's closest friends. And her husband shot
- 3:25Speaker 2: himself in their bed. But the next day, she had
- 3:28Speaker 2: her friends come over to help paint over, to clean it.
- 3:30Speaker 2: Because one thing people don't realize is that a crime scene,
- 3:33Speaker 2: you're responsible to clean up.
- 3:34Speaker 3: Right.
- 3:34Speaker 2: They don't bring in a crew for you. You have
- 3:36Speaker 2: to clean it up. So her friends came in to
- 3:38Speaker 2: help her. Well, in the newspapers, they said, you know,
- 3:41Speaker 2: woman has a paint party.
- 3:43Speaker 3: Paint party, yeah.
- 3:44Speaker 2: You know, after her... So because of her behavior, they
- 3:48Speaker 2: put her in prison. That woman stayed in prison for
- 3:50Speaker 2: 10 years while her son grows up to become an
- 3:53Speaker 2: attorney and then get her off.
- 3:55Speaker 3: Wow. She was in there longer than 10 years.
- 3:57Speaker 2: I thought it was 10 years.
- 3:58Speaker 3: No, it was longer than that.
- 3:58Speaker 2: But she was in there way too long, an innocent person,
- 4:02Speaker 2: because she was judged.
- 4:03Speaker 3: On how she acted after... But also, Kimberly, the husband
- 4:07Speaker 3: that killed himself, he was from an affluent family here
- 4:11Speaker 3: in Shreveport. And so they hired... These terrible, terrible attorneys
- 4:16Speaker 3: who knew right from wrong, but they were going where
- 4:18Speaker 3: the money was. And so, I mean, she wouldn't mind
- 4:21Speaker 3: you saying she was homecoming queen of Woodlawn in 66. Yeah,
- 4:24Speaker 3: she was everything.
- 4:24Speaker 2: Like an amazing.
- 4:25Speaker 3: And then her son grew up and was able to
- 4:27Speaker 3: become an attorney and get her off.
- 4:28Speaker 2: Wow.
- 4:29Speaker 3: And they discovered that the... The expert who talked about
- 4:35Speaker 3: the paint and about the blood on the walls was
- 4:38Speaker 3: like completely just a farce of a person, of an expert.
- 4:42Speaker 3: And you realize how many people, because they don't have
- 4:44Speaker 3: the money that the other people have, because money talks.
- 4:48Speaker 3: And that's why you will see like Garrett Ghost and
- 4:51Speaker 3: all of these big high-powered attorneys who are for Diddy
- 4:55Speaker 3: or who have taken on these celebrities, you know, as
- 4:57Speaker 3: their clients. That's how they're able to get them off
- 4:59Speaker 3: of crimes they know that they committed because money is
- 5:02Speaker 3: in there. But, yeah, I think that in that case
- 5:07Speaker 3: of Susie, there's a story about, there's actually a movie
- 5:11Speaker 3: about her. It's not Hallmark, but it's that other Lifetime.
- 5:14Speaker 3: There's a Lifetime movie about her. And I think that
- 5:18Speaker 3: she could have become bitter about, But she's better. She's
- 5:21Speaker 3: a happy person.
- 5:22Speaker 2: She's amazing.
- 5:23Speaker 1: But just people do grieve in different ways.
- 5:26Speaker 3: Yeah, they do.
- 5:27Speaker 4: And they deal with it in different ways. And what
- 5:30Speaker 4: may be normal for one person may not be normal
- 5:32Speaker 4: for another. And that still doesn't necessarily mean it's evidence
- 5:36Speaker 4: of the crime itself.
- 5:37Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Or exoneration of it.
- 5:39Speaker 3: Can you imagine being innocent knowing that you did nothing
- 5:42Speaker 3: and you're going to jail to death row?
- 5:44Speaker 4: Yeah.
