- 2:20Speaker 1: High profile lawyer Claude text mgeiver just found guilty of
- 2:25Speaker 1: felony murder and other charges. And it ends a story
- 2:29Speaker 1: that all begins with the fatal shooting of his wife,
- 2:32Speaker 1: a beautiful and highly successful wife, Diane. Now this charge
- 2:39Speaker 1: carries a mandatory life sentence. The jury acquitted text mgiver
- 2:46Speaker 1: on intentional or malice murder, which would have meant the killing,
- 2:49Speaker 1: of course, was premeditated. But the high profile lawyer guilty
- 2:53Speaker 1: of four lesser charges. Including aggravated assault, possession of a firearm,
- 2:58Speaker 1: witness influence, and sing. And because a death occurred during
- 3:03Speaker 1: the commission of that felony aggravated assault, that means a
- 3:07Speaker 1: felony murder charge. Joining me right now, Crime Stories investigative
- 3:11Speaker 1: reporter and Emmy Award winning journalist Art Harris, who has
- 3:16Speaker 1: been at the courthouse. First of all, let me get
- 3:19Speaker 1: something straight. Art first and foremost, is it true my
- 3:23Speaker 1: former protege, Clint Rucker, who tried the case for the state,
- 3:27Speaker 1: stole my muddy water? Is it true? Art? Nancy? I
- 3:32Speaker 1: saw you use that, and he held up a mason jar,
- 3:36Speaker 1: shook it up with muddy creek, Orter and told the jury.
- 3:40Speaker 1: By the time it settles and I finished my argument,
- 3:44Speaker 1: it will be as clear as the truth that he's
- 3:47Speaker 1: guilty of murder. And when he seeing Mr Rutger right now,
- 3:51Speaker 1: but apparently it worked, tell me the whole thing. Art,
- 3:56Speaker 1: start at the beginning, and Nancy, he of he made
- 4:00Speaker 1: a case for a man who was obsessed with with money,
- 4:06Speaker 1: and that greed took a back seat. Grief took a
- 4:11Speaker 1: back seat to greed. And and here was a guy
- 4:14Speaker 1: who shot his wife in the back coming off of
- 4:19Speaker 1: of a downtown exit at night. Um, it was, and
- 4:23Speaker 1: you know he did not take the exit. So the
- 4:25Speaker 1: question was how was he going to overcome the reasonable
- 4:29Speaker 1: doubt that this was a murder? That Text had his gun,
- 4:34Speaker 1: he requested it to have it in his lap because
- 4:37Speaker 1: they were going through a bad part of town and
- 4:41Speaker 1: suddenly it goes off, and that's when they raced to
- 4:44Speaker 1: the emergency room at Emory Hospital. And uh, he's ushered
- 4:47Speaker 1: in And a series of missteps by Text mcgever, whether
- 4:53Speaker 1: there were a planned or or or stupid, conspire to
- 4:59Speaker 1: make him look guilty, tells numerous lies about what happened.
- 5:05Speaker 1: Art Harris, arn't Harris, listen. I know you well enough
- 5:08Speaker 1: to know what you mean by that the facts conspired
- 5:13Speaker 1: to make mc iver look guilty. Okay, that sounds to
- 5:18Speaker 1: me like what you're saying is he's not really guilty,
- 5:22Speaker 1: but appearances, Uh, perception became reality and he was found guilty.
- 5:28Speaker 1: Also with me with me in addition to Aunt Harris
- 5:31Speaker 1: is probably an investigator. Vince Hill, guys were bringing you
- 5:33Speaker 1: the very latest from the courthouse. Text mc iver has
- 5:37Speaker 1: been found guilty in the murder of his wife, Diane Vincent.
- 5:41Speaker 1: What do you say to aunt Harris's phraseology that the
- 5:46Speaker 1: facts conspired to make McIver look guilty. And I gotta
- 5:51Speaker 1: tell you something, Vincent, I wasn't completely convinced myself, believe
- 5:55Speaker 1: it or not. Because the wife when she got in
- 5:57Speaker 1: the hospital and was set asked, did your husband do
- 6:00Speaker 1: this on purpose? On purpose? She said no, it was
- 6:03Speaker 1: an accident. So tell me, Vincent Hill, how is this
- 6:06Speaker 1: guy found guilty? Well, Nancy, I wasn't convinced, just like you,
- 6:11Speaker 1: and I think what it came down to is the
- 6:13Speaker 1: jury couldn't convict on this malice murder, which would have
- 6:16Speaker 1: had to prove intent. And the prosecution went on to say,
- 6:19Speaker 1: what's about money impossible affairs? But with felony murder you
- 6:23Speaker 1: don't need the intent. That element is thrown out. You
- 6:26Speaker 1: just have to prove that someone died during the commission
- 6:29Speaker 1: of a felony. And since Text was charged with the
- 6:32Speaker 1: aggravated assault, what's the felony here in Georgia the felony
- 6:36Speaker 1: aggravated assault led to her death. Therefore, they convicted on
- 6:40Speaker 1: the felony murder without the intent. Okay, f y I
- 6:45Speaker 1: Ashley Willcot Atlanta Junal Judge and founder of child crime
- 6:49Speaker 1: watch dot com f y I. Aggravated assault when you
- 6:54Speaker 1: shoot somebody with a firearm, that is a felony, and
- 6:58Speaker 1: every jurisdiction in our country that's right. But it requires intent.
- 7:04Speaker 1: So this is a fascinating case. I think that it
- 7:06Speaker 1: sets it up for some appeal grounds, or at least
- 7:09Speaker 1: arguments on appeal, because the jury says, okay, no intent
- 7:14Speaker 1: for murder, So we're not going to convict on murder,
- 7:16Speaker 1: but we are going to convict on felony murder, which
- 7:19Speaker 1: does not require the intent. But we're also going to
- 7:22Speaker 1: convict on the aggravated assault, which is the felony underlying
- 7:25Speaker 1: the murder. So some as intent, some doesn't. If you
- 7:29Speaker 1: want to argue that for appeal purposes, I think it
- 7:31Speaker 1: was the right verdict. But I'm just saying, you know
- 7:34Speaker 1: a lot of people argue on appeal Actley that the
- 7:37Speaker 1: aggravated assault and the this maybe two inside baseball, the
- 7:40Speaker 1: agasalt and the death merge. And you cannot use agasalt
- 7:46Speaker 1: as an underlying felony. It has to be an independent
- 7:50Speaker 1: felony like a rape or a burglary. That's the felony
- 7:55Speaker 1: that underlies felony. Murder. You gotta have a felony to
- 8:00Speaker 1: have a filter with me. Dr Judith Joseph, new York psychiatrist.
- 8:06Speaker 1: You can find her at www dot Judith Joseph m
- 8:11Speaker 1: d dot com and author of a brand new book
- 8:14Speaker 1: coming out in August. I met Dr Judith at Odd
- 8:18Speaker 1: Dr oz in New York and was totally knocked out
- 8:21Speaker 1: by her. Dr Judith. I think one of the things
- 8:25Speaker 1: that lent to the guilty verdict is the way he
- 8:29Speaker 1: acted text mcaver after the death. He had a huge
- 8:33Speaker 1: consignment cell within a couple of months, got rid of
- 8:36Speaker 1: everything belonging to his wife, raised a bunch of money,
- 8:40Speaker 1: asked people to change their stories, and very important what
- 8:44Speaker 1: happened after the incident Diane mcaver's longtime friend and mentor,
- 8:51Speaker 1: Bill Corey, who I assumed started Corey Limousine, a huge
- 8:57Speaker 1: enterprise where she had risen through the ranks, appear it
- 9:00Speaker 1: at a news conference after the verdict with prosecutors. Her
- 9:05Speaker 1: long time mentor and friend stood with the prosecutors on
- 9:09Speaker 1: the courthouse steps after the verdict and said quote they
- 9:13Speaker 1: stood up for Diane. Now, Dr Judith Joseph, when friends
- 9:18Speaker 1: and family side with the prosecution. That tells me that
- 9:22Speaker 1: they agree with the prosecution. They this guy wasn't coming
- 9:26Speaker 1: out sobbing into his fist because text mcover was guilty,
- 9:30Speaker 1: was found guilty. You know what I mean, Judith, you
- 9:34Speaker 1: know Nancy. I think what's telling is you heard it
- 9:37Speaker 1: from the wives the mouth. You heard her say no,
- 9:39Speaker 1: he did it by mistake. And I think what people
- 9:43Speaker 1: don't realize is that one in three US women are
- 9:46Speaker 1: victims of abuse. They're victims of verbal abuse, emotional abuse, harassment,
- 9:51Speaker 1: physical abuse, one and three. Who knows what this poor
- 9:54Speaker 1: woman went through. And again I did not treat them,
- 9:56Speaker 1: I did not know them. But on her death she
- 10:00Speaker 1: was still defending her husband. That that to me is
- 10:03Speaker 1: the most shocking part of what you said. You know,
- 10:06Speaker 1: the sociopaths, that's a range. There's a wide range of sociopathy.
- 10:11Speaker 1: You have, you know, the terrible boyfriend, the one who
- 10:13Speaker 1: stalk and then you have this psychopaths, the calculating serial murders.
- 10:18Speaker 1: And somewhere along the line, I believe this man exhibited
- 10:22Speaker 1: signs of sociopathy. The lying there, not taking responsibility for
- 10:26Speaker 1: his actions, the impulsivity, the hotheadedness. You know, there are
- 10:31Speaker 1: so many holes in his story, So who knows what
- 10:35Speaker 1: she went through in this marriage. However, the that the
- 10:38Speaker 1: family eventually took her side and defended her shows that
- 10:42Speaker 1: there was something going on that we did not know about,
- 10:45Speaker 1: that the public does not know about, and only those
- 10:48Speaker 1: clothes of the family members knew. Judith, what an insight?
- 10:52Speaker 1: What an insight? Before I throw you to a gail
- 10:56Speaker 1: house interview, I really want you to hear real quickly.
- 10:59Speaker 1: Are Harriston? I hear Vincent Hill correctly? Did I hear
- 11:03Speaker 1: him say the word affair? Well? He played on the
- 11:08Speaker 1: notion of Nick Ivor's having a possible fair with his
- 11:13Speaker 1: massage therapist, which turned out not to be true but
- 11:16Speaker 1: was never fully dispelled. But what was she connected to
- 11:20Speaker 1: the fur the fur coat? No, she wore the boots? Uh,
- 11:25Speaker 1: that prosecutor said, Diane, given here for Jackie Howard, who
- 11:31Speaker 1: is staying around as if she's wearing a fair coat
- 11:34Speaker 1: a fur coat? She was the mass turned up and
- 11:38Speaker 1: his dead wife's favorite boots right after her death. Yes,
- 11:43Speaker 1: that's it. Yes, But guess what, Nancy. The boots were two.
- 11:46Speaker 1: They were too big, and somebody said, hey, if the
- 11:49Speaker 1: boost don't fit, you must have quit and uh so
- 11:52Speaker 1: she was not. She was maybe having a gift. She
- 11:55Speaker 1: had a gift, but they were not Diane's boots because
- 11:57Speaker 1: they were the wrong size. In any case, none of
- 12:00Speaker 1: those those nuggets were dispelled art art. No, those boots
- 12:06Speaker 1: were Diane's because they were very um unique boots. You
- 12:12Speaker 1: don't just find them anywhere. And I don't know what
- 12:15Speaker 1: has gotten into you. Aren't hairs. You're the quote Emmy
- 12:18Speaker 1: Award winning journalist, and you keep acting like there wasn't
- 12:23Speaker 1: enough evidence to convict Listen. I was on the fence.
- 12:27Speaker 1: I really expected them to come back with influencing a witness.
- 12:31Speaker 1: I did not know after well after Rutger made that argument, though,
- 12:35Speaker 1: he pulled an anti grace and wove this this amazing
- 12:39Speaker 1: tale of of him being an octopus who sprayed ink
- 12:44Speaker 1: to cover his his escape and his manipulations. Uh and
- 12:49Speaker 1: the doctor is right. His nickname was the Fixer because
- 12:53Speaker 1: he was a lawyer in high ranking Republican Party member
- 12:57Speaker 1: who got things done quietly behind the scenes. He was
- 13:00Speaker 1: used to getting his his way, and he could not
- 13:03Speaker 1: fix his own seat. I don't really know anything that
- 13:07Speaker 1: you just said, aren't Harris, But I didn't have to
- 13:10Speaker 1: weave a picture of the truth. Hello, it spoke for itself.
- 13:15Speaker 1: I'm gonna get you aren't Harris, But first take a
- 13:18Speaker 1: listen to this jailhouse interview with our friend Mark Winnie.
- 13:22Speaker 1: Listen to this, and as I learned in the Scouts,
- 13:25Speaker 1: that's your obligation to protect people around me. And that's
- 13:28Speaker 1: what I was doing that night. That's what I've done
- 13:31Speaker 1: other times. And sometimes that's a weapon, sometimes it's martial arts.
- 13:35Speaker 1: It's whatever we we need. But guns are not my thing.
- 13:42Speaker 1: You let it very successful life are a major life
- 13:47Speaker 1: and out age seventy four. You're in a jail. Well,
- 13:52Speaker 1: I hope to be out, assuming that the reality is Um,
- 13:57Speaker 1: I just I just missed my wife so much. It
- 14:04Speaker 1: was the perfect marriage. It re was. Yeah, I just
- 14:10Speaker 1: every day I reached four in the morning when I
- 14:13Speaker 1: wake up. Just anyway, I've got your lap on my

- 14:38Speaker 1: I mean, right there, that's the biggest line of b
- 14:40Speaker 1: yes I've ever heard. I want you to take a
- 14:43Speaker 1: listen now, as the jury. Four person reads the verdict,
- 14:49Speaker 1: which means verdict into the red murder on count two,
- 15:01Speaker 1: tell me murder, you find a dependent dependent murder. I'm three,
- 15:08Speaker 1: all find the dependent guilty. Oncount four, possession of a

- 15:28Speaker 1: please ve verdier form to Mr Rutger and then to
- 15:32Speaker 1: Mr Hard Guys. That was a jury reading out the verdict.
- 15:36Speaker 1: The jury of seven women and five men deliberated over
- 15:41Speaker 1: twenty nine hours. It took him five days before they
- 15:45Speaker 1: came down with a verdict. They heard from seventy eight
- 15:49Speaker 1: witnesses and the case lasted six weeks of testimony. For
- 15:54Speaker 1: a minute there they said they were deadlock. Vincent Hill
- 15:58Speaker 1: joining me. Private investor Gator was in the courtroom when
- 16:01Speaker 1: that went down. You know, Vincent, when I heard they
- 16:04Speaker 1: were deadlock, I thought it was all she wrote. I
- 16:06Speaker 1: thought that the judge would dynamite them, in other words,
- 16:09Speaker 1: give them the Alan charge and they come back, you know,
- 16:12Speaker 1: dug in. But they didn't. They came back with a verdict, that,
- 16:15Speaker 1: of course, is going to be a grounds for appeal.
- 16:18Speaker 1: They defense going to say the judge forced them into
- 16:21Speaker 1: the decision. What did the what would did the jury
- 16:24Speaker 1: look like? Did they look like they were getting along,
- 16:27Speaker 1: did they look like they were arguing? Did they sit
- 16:30Speaker 1: in clumps, did they sit together? Were they jovial with
- 16:33Speaker 1: each other when they would come in from breaks? I mean,
- 16:35Speaker 1: what was your take on the jury, Vincent Hill? Yeah,
- 16:39Speaker 1: they were jovial up until yesterday, and Nancy, when they
- 16:42Speaker 1: were deadlock and the judge told them basically to go
- 16:44Speaker 1: back and come to a verdict. I mean, the local
- 16:47Speaker 1: in their face was just like, you've gotta be kidding me.
- 16:50Speaker 1: We've been here for seven weeks. Why is this not over?
- 16:53Speaker 1: And keep in mind and O. J. Simpson and all
- 16:56Speaker 1: the evidence, the physical evidence that the prosecution had that
- 17:00Speaker 1: deliberation only took four hours. This was five plus days
- 17:04Speaker 1: of deliberations. So the jury was so frustrated yesterday, Nancy,
- 17:09Speaker 1: I believe it to Dr Judith Joseph, New York psychiatrist
- 17:14Speaker 1: at Judith Joseph m D dot com. Judith, the jury
- 17:21Speaker 1: really took it in. Those seven women on the jury
- 17:24Speaker 1: when they found out text. Mccayvor had a big boutique.
- 17:27Speaker 1: We call it a yard sale, okay, but there's was
- 17:31Speaker 1: a consignment cell and a fancy boutique and made about
- 17:36Speaker 1: three hundred thousand dollars fur coats, UH, designer clothing, boots, handbags,
- 17:43Speaker 1: lots of jewelry. I think that rubbed the jury the
- 17:46Speaker 1: wrong way. Dr Judith absolutely agree, and I'm sorry I
- 17:52Speaker 1: overstepped when I was just talking. But I think that
- 17:55Speaker 1: the fact that the deliberation took so long have to
- 17:58Speaker 1: do most likely with his his skills. Let's not forget
- 18:03Speaker 1: this is a person who knows how to work the system.
- 18:05Speaker 1: And you know, I've never met him and ever treated him,
- 18:07Speaker 1: but from the facts and what I've read, he had
- 18:10Speaker 1: this grandiose sense of self talking about martial arts, bragging
- 18:15Speaker 1: about the way he could maneuver the system, and then
- 18:18Speaker 1: being so brazen after the death, wearing buying expensive things.
- 18:22Speaker 1: These are not the actions of someone who is grieving
- 18:25Speaker 1: and and this probably angered the family members who if
- 18:28Speaker 1: they had any nugget of doubt that was wiped out
- 18:32Speaker 1: based on the behaviors after her her passing. So so
- 18:36Speaker 1: remember these people are very selfish. Sociopathy has a lot
- 18:40Speaker 1: to do with people who lies, They blame others, they
- 18:43Speaker 1: victimize themselves all the while they're planning to to to
- 18:46Speaker 1: to victimize another person. So they play as if they
- 18:49Speaker 1: are the victim, they were the ones that were done wrong. However,
- 18:52Speaker 1: they actually end up victimizing others. So let's keep that
- 18:55Speaker 1: in mind. To Ashley Willcott, Atlanta, Jeven, I old judge,
- 19:00Speaker 1: founder of child Crime watch dot com, Ashley, we have
- 19:04Speaker 1: been watching this case. I've especially been watching it because
- 19:09Speaker 1: Clint Rutcker trained under me, who was now the lead
- 19:13Speaker 1: prosecutor on the Text mcaiver case. And I worked with
- 19:17Speaker 1: him for many, many years and feel very close to him,
- 19:22Speaker 1: and I'm proud of him, whether he won or lost
- 19:25Speaker 1: getting through the Text mcaiver case. On the other side,
- 19:29Speaker 1: for a short while was a guy I looked up
- 19:32Speaker 1: to a lot it. His name had been Judge Bill Hill.
- 19:36Speaker 1: And I'll tell you how I know Bill Ashley. When
- 19:39Speaker 1: I was prosecuting, every murder conviction goes up. All convictions
- 19:44Speaker 1: go up on appeal, but murder convictions go up on appeal,
- 19:48Speaker 1: and the States Attorney General's Office always writes and am
- 19:52Speaker 1: because cury brief a friend of the court to help
- 19:55Speaker 1: support and hold the conviction. They're not asked to do it,
- 19:58Speaker 1: but they do it on every murder conviction in the
- 20:02Speaker 1: state of Georgia. Well, Bill Hill somehow landed in with
- 20:06Speaker 1: me and would right and argue some of them. He
- 20:10Speaker 1: didn't argue it, I argued it, but he would write
- 20:12Speaker 1: some very difficult amicas curity briefs. You know. I would
- 20:15Speaker 1: write my own and he would write a supporting brief.
- 20:18Speaker 1: And that's how I met him. The moment I met him.
- 20:21Speaker 1: Uh oh. I also met him in federal court because
- 20:25Speaker 1: he was trying to hold a conviction on a case
- 20:28Speaker 1: that later got reversed, that was tried before I became
- 20:31Speaker 1: a prosecutor. That's when I first met him, and his
- 20:35Speaker 1: grasp of the facts and the law was so impressive.
- 20:40Speaker 1: I can still remember coming back to the District Attorney,
- 20:43Speaker 1: the elected d A, and saying, you know this guy
- 20:46Speaker 1: Bill Hill in the AG's office. He is sharp. He
- 20:49Speaker 1: went on to be a judge, and then he went
- 20:52Speaker 1: into private practice and for a little while represented tex MacIver. So.
- 20:57Speaker 1: I've been watching it from both sides of the fence, Ashley.
- 21:02Speaker 1: A lot of times juries render vardicts on emotion, something
- 21:06Speaker 1: happens during the trial that just strikes them the wrong way.
- 21:12Speaker 1: And I'll tell you another pivotal moment and had nothing
- 21:14Speaker 1: to do with the murder when they brought in the
- 21:17Speaker 1: state brought in text mc Iver's arsenal of weapons, forty
- 21:23Speaker 1: plus long guns, revolvers, you name it. I mean, it
- 21:27Speaker 1: was staggering all of his weapons and ammo he kept.
- 21:31Speaker 1: And then his wife died of a gunshot. One that
- 21:34Speaker 1: just doesn't make a good impression, Ashley. Well, it doesn't.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Not only that, Nancy, but think about every shred of
- 21:40Speaker 1: evidence that the prosecution had presented. Well also reads and
- 21:46Speaker 1: and highlights his arrogance. Text mc iver is a very
- 21:49Speaker 1: powerful man in Atlanta, Georgia. He was with a big firm,
- 21:52Speaker 1: he was a part of the Republican Party. He did
- 21:54Speaker 1: have wealth, and so he perceived his power in such
- 21:57Speaker 1: a way and flaunted it and extra size that there
- 22:01Speaker 1: really was a real arrogance. And I do not think
- 22:03Speaker 1: that that is something the jury liked either. I agree.
- 22:07Speaker 1: Another thing is when you have a jury in the box,
- 22:12Speaker 1: you have to remember that them, like many of us
- 22:16Speaker 1: on the panel right now, came from I mean I came,
- 22:19Speaker 1: you know, ash from a red dirt road with a
- 22:23Speaker 1: red water coming out of the faucet from it. Well,
- 22:26Speaker 1: my grandfather, Doug. And when you put somebody up and
- 22:31Speaker 1: present them as rolling in fur codes and an expensive jewelry,
- 22:39Speaker 1: and and then not just that, but then the arrogance
- 22:44Speaker 1: that goes with it, nobody likes that. Nobody likes that.
- 22:50Speaker 1: It makes them dislike the person deep down. Especially when
- 22:54Speaker 1: you take the next step, follow the money. Then you
- 22:57Speaker 1: hear financial problems. Financial problem follow that money. You put
- 23:01Speaker 1: those two together, you almost have a surefire way to
- 23:04Speaker 1: convince a jury. Hey, this is good evidence that he
- 23:10Speaker 1: did this, that he killed his wife. You know, Aunt
- 23:13Speaker 1: Harris with me art I was never convinced about Texas
- 23:17Speaker 1: Macayre having an affair. And that didn't mean think of
- 23:19Speaker 1: me one way or the other, because it was a
- 23:21Speaker 1: very strong evidence. But the money problems. How could these
- 23:24Speaker 1: two people with all that money have a money problem.
- 23:27Speaker 1: I can tell you this after losing my dad recently,
- 23:31Speaker 1: after losing my fiance to Marta, after laying up in
- 23:34Speaker 1: the hospital with John David with a head injury for
- 23:36Speaker 1: four days straight. If money is your problem, you don't
- 23:40Speaker 1: have a problem. Okay, how could these two people with
- 23:43Speaker 1: all that money, have a money problem, Nancy. Here here
- 23:47Speaker 1: you have a guy with whose income has been cut
- 23:51Speaker 1: in half at his law firm. He's getting up in age,
- 23:53Speaker 1: so he's only making about two d thousand a year
- 23:56Speaker 1: and his wife has about seven million dollars in her
- 23:59Speaker 1: at the state. Alan, can you stop, art, okay, Art,
- 24:03Speaker 1: stop that train. You said he was now, you know,
- 24:07Speaker 1: kind of semi retired or emeritus in his law firm
- 24:10Speaker 1: of council, and his salary was cut in half. Pray tail.
- 24:14Speaker 1: What was his reduced salary? It was about two d thousand, Nancy,
- 24:19Speaker 1: but it wasn't enough dollars a million dollars Manthy. He
- 24:25Speaker 1: had a farm in Puttingham County. It cost twenty a
- 24:28Speaker 1: month to run to keep up his image of being
- 24:30Speaker 1: the Mr Texts with the horses and the uh you know,
- 24:34Speaker 1: and this acreage and you know. So he was worried
- 24:37Speaker 1: because he had to sign his farm over to his
- 24:42Speaker 1: wife to get a loan from her. She held the
- 24:45Speaker 1: title of the farm and actually her estate could possibly
- 24:49Speaker 1: foreclose if he didn't start making payments, and that was
- 24:53Speaker 1: a bone of contention between them. Rutger argued that that
- 24:57Speaker 1: this was a woman who was very savvy about her money,
- 25:00Speaker 1: and that their financial affairs were supposed to be separate,
- 25:04Speaker 1: but she kept fronting him to carry his load. And
- 25:07Speaker 1: that's what what he argued was the the you know,
- 25:12Speaker 1: imbalance of power in the marriage, and text had to
- 25:16Speaker 1: do something to take care of that and would be
- 25:18Speaker 1: much better off if if she was dead than alive. Ashley, Okay,
- 25:26Speaker 1: I did not know that because I can't remember when
- 25:32Speaker 1: I crashed my car during a murder investigation and nobody
- 25:37Speaker 1: was hurt. The other person only had their button fall
- 25:39Speaker 1: off their pants. The my my now husband, gave me
- 25:45Speaker 1: his old car, okay, and I would pay him back.
- 25:47Speaker 1: Whenever I'd spare change, I'd throw it on the kitchen counter.
- 25:50Speaker 1: Go there, there's your payment for this man. But this woman, Ashley,
- 25:54Speaker 1: she's no dummy. She had him inside a document and
- 25:58Speaker 1: she was fronting him the money on the farm. That
- 26:01Speaker 1: was a very formal loan. Did you just hear that? Uh?
- 26:04Speaker 1: That one thing convinced me they had a money problem
- 26:07Speaker 1: between them exactly. Not only that. To me, what it
- 26:10Speaker 1: screams is she didn't trust this man. I see this
- 26:14Speaker 1: as a judge on the bench all the time, people
- 26:16Speaker 1: do those steps when they do not trust their partner.
- 26:21Speaker 1: For those of you just joining us, a major verdict
- 26:24Speaker 1: has just been handed down by a jury of twelve
- 26:28Speaker 1: who went through six weeks of evidence and testimony in
- 26:31Speaker 1: the case of a very high profile lawyer rolling in money.
- 26:37Speaker 1: And it's even more successful wife, Diane McIver now Diane
- 26:42Speaker 1: mckeiver's business Vincent Hill, private investigator. Um. Her business was
- 26:47Speaker 1: that she led the Corey limousine enterprise, which is all
- 26:51Speaker 1: over the country. I mean this was a very successful businesswoman. Correct,
- 26:57Speaker 1: that is correct, Nancy. I think the pros acution said
- 27:00Speaker 1: she was worth about seven point five million dollars. Okay,
- 27:04Speaker 1: let me understand something one more time now, Art Harris,
- 27:08Speaker 1: you obviously are defense oriented in this case. I'm a
- 27:12Speaker 1: little shocked. Guys, Just so you know, Art and I
- 27:15Speaker 1: have an inside deal. His uh half sister, my dear
- 27:20Speaker 1: friend Meg prosecuted with me is d A's office. So Art,
- 27:26Speaker 1: Art Harris, tell me one more time in regular people
- 27:31Speaker 1: talk air, Art, don't go off in your journalistic jargon.
- 27:35Speaker 1: What was it you were telling me? He and there's
- 27:38Speaker 1: a cure for owning a twenty thousand dollar a month ranch.
- 27:42Speaker 1: It's called sell it, okay, if you cannot afford it,
- 27:46Speaker 1: so art heris tell me in regular people talk in
- 27:49Speaker 1: a nutshell? What was the deal Diane struck with her
- 27:52Speaker 1: husband Text mc iver in order for him to keep bench.
- 27:57Speaker 1: He had a farm that cost about dollars to me pain,
- 28:00Speaker 1: and she advanced him a chunk of money up to
- 28:04Speaker 1: a half million dollars to keep it running, but got
- 28:07Speaker 1: a signed document and return, so she ultimately would own
- 28:11Speaker 1: the farm if he didn't say her back. Oh, she
- 28:16Speaker 1: did not trust him as far as she could throw him. Oh,
- 28:21Speaker 1: dear lord, Okay, all right, I know what that means.
- 28:24Speaker 1: But on my all appearances outwardly they were very happy.
- 28:28Speaker 1: And I'm telling you that yard sale that he had
- 28:31Speaker 1: at that fancy boutique of all of her designer clothes.
- 28:35Speaker 1: I mean, he couldn't get rid of her stuff fast enough.
- 28:38Speaker 1: You know. Every day I go by and I touched
- 28:41Speaker 1: my fiance's baseball he's on baseball scholarship, and I look
- 28:46Speaker 1: at my dad with my dad's clothes. In fact, a
- 28:49Speaker 1: lot of times I travel with my dad's shirt and
- 28:51Speaker 1: wear it when I'm out of town because I miss
- 28:53Speaker 1: him so much. He couldn't unload her stuff fast enough.
- 28:58Speaker 1: You know, Art Harris, you were in the courtroom. What
- 29:01Speaker 1: do you think was the turning point in the trial? Nancy?
- 29:06Speaker 1: The d A had to explain how this guy holding
- 29:10Speaker 1: a gun, their thirty eight revolver in his lap uh
- 29:13Speaker 1: and apparently going to sleep, how he could possibly shoot
- 29:16Speaker 1: it uh and deliberately mean to kill her. Well, the
- 29:20Speaker 1: you know that that has not been established. But the
- 29:23Speaker 1: jury asked to go sit in the in the Ford
- 29:26Speaker 1: expedition and sit in the back seat where Text had
- 29:29Speaker 1: been sitting and purportedly holding the gun in his lap,
- 29:33Speaker 1: and look at the actual trajectory through the seat that
- 29:37Speaker 1: was recreated by this this little rod they had and
- 29:42Speaker 1: actually asked to hold the gun as well. So suddenly
- 29:46Speaker 1: have these jurors going to the car and holding the gun,
- 29:49Speaker 1: and it sounded like they figured, well, you know what
- 29:53Speaker 1: this guy could have he would have had to have
- 29:55Speaker 1: aimed at or you know, just wasn't sitting on his lap,
- 29:57Speaker 1: didn't go off, as her former ball said, thirty eight
- 30:02Speaker 1: just don't fire by itself. And so that the d
- 30:07Speaker 1: A thought was a turning point that they were able
- 30:09Speaker 1: to visualize that it was possible, uh to shoot her,
- 30:13Speaker 1: but you might have to use a little bit of
- 30:16Speaker 1: will uh and planning to do it in the back
- 30:19Speaker 1: seat so that it didn't you know, you didn't hit
- 30:21Speaker 1: a bump um thirty eight has about what twenty pounds
- 30:25Speaker 1: events of no better? Twenty pounds of trigger pool pressure.
- 30:30Speaker 1: Got to hold the gun, Ashley will got uh, juvenile judge,
- 30:35Speaker 1: you've tried a lot of cases, uh, fan of child
- 30:38Speaker 1: crime watch dot com. Ashley trigger pool and the terms
- 30:43Speaker 1: aren't is using? Means how hard you have to pull
- 30:47Speaker 1: on the trigger to open it? You know, you can
- 30:50Speaker 1: compare it to open a jar. When you're opening a
- 30:52Speaker 1: jar you've opened twenty times, it's easy. Sometimes the first
- 30:55Speaker 1: time you open it, you've got to beat it on
- 30:57Speaker 1: the counter. You've got to ask other people to help.
- 31:00Speaker 1: You've got a twist and turn. Same thing with a
- 31:02Speaker 1: trigger pool. Some guns have a light pul some have
- 31:06Speaker 1: pounds and pounds of pull. They wanted to see that
- 31:10Speaker 1: gun to see if he was really asleep and it
- 31:13Speaker 1: had a hard trigger pool. How could that have been
- 31:16Speaker 1: an accident? How would he pull it in his sleep?
- 31:19Speaker 1: That's right. That's a significant piece of evidence for them
- 31:21Speaker 1: to actually hold the gun, because the other pieces, you know,
- 31:24Speaker 1: he argued, Oh, they went over a bump when he
- 31:26Speaker 1: was asleep and it went off. You're right by actually
- 31:28Speaker 1: feeling that holding it in their hand. That's what makes
- 31:31Speaker 1: cases think about O. J. Simpson and the glove not fitting.
- 31:35Speaker 1: When they can visualize, touch, feel these things. That makes
- 31:38Speaker 1: a huge impact on a jury understanding whether or not
- 31:43Speaker 1: a story like text mc iver told is plausible or not.
- 31:47Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, aren't Ashley, You're absolutely right.
- 31:52Speaker 1: Take a listen to what a jurard like Heisha Boyd said.
- 31:57Speaker 1: What we do know is that she's no longer with
- 32:00Speaker 1: us and that we had to give justice and justice
- 32:02Speaker 1: to a certain and we was able to come up
- 32:04Speaker 1: with you. You you shot your wife in the back.
- 32:08Speaker 1: A gun just don't go off, so we didn't think
- 32:10Speaker 1: that it was accidental. Well, there you hear it in
- 32:14Speaker 1: the words from the mouth of a juror, Lakisha Boyd.
- 32:17Speaker 1: A gun doesn't just quote go off, Lakaisha, I could
- 32:22Speaker 1: not agree with you more. And last, I want to
- 32:25Speaker 1: go to my colleague and friend, Clint ruck Or, the
- 32:31Speaker 1: lead attorney on the text, mccarivor Prosecutions, who never gave
- 32:35Speaker 1: up and never gave in and PS stole all my
- 32:39Speaker 1: bag of tricks. Listen to Clint, what was it that
- 32:44Speaker 1: was pivotal for them that they zeroed in on um? Well,
- 32:48Speaker 1: you know, what they expressed to me was that the
- 32:51Speaker 1: issue of intent UM provided uh some challenges for them,
- 32:55Speaker 1: and it was because of the language in the charge
- 32:59Speaker 1: with the express to me is that the charge itself
- 33:02Speaker 1: was a little confusing for them, a little hard to understand.
- 33:05Speaker 1: It's written in legal ease and so um it took
- 33:08Speaker 1: them a while to kind of dissect the actual language
- 33:12Speaker 1: of the charge. And to me, that is what I
- 33:14Speaker 1: took that they spent the most amount of time. Okay, guys,
- 33:18Speaker 1: this is what we know. Text mcgiver has been found guilty,
- 33:22Speaker 1: high profile lawyer in the shooting death of his gorgeous
- 33:26Speaker 1: and successful wife Diane. Let this be a lesson to us,
- 33:31Speaker 1: all the love of money the root of all evil.
- 33:36Speaker 1: Text mc ivor headed to jail. We now had from
- 33:40Speaker 1: that Atlanta court room across the country to Indiana, where
- 33:44Speaker 1: a shocking decision has been made. No jail time for
- 33:50Speaker 1: an Indiana fertility doctor who lies about using his own
- 33:58Speaker 1: sperm to inseminate his lady patients. What no jail time?
- 34:09Speaker 1: So all these women who are desperate to have a family.
- 34:14Speaker 1: They want a baby so badly they do it all.
- 34:17Speaker 1: They shoot themselves up with all those chemicals and hormones,
- 34:22Speaker 1: like Elizabeth Edwards did, who later passed away with cancer.
- 34:27Speaker 1: Finally they go the artificial insemination route and they find
- 34:32Speaker 1: they say they want a young college student or a
- 34:34Speaker 1: medical intern or a resident, and this duck says, oh yeah,
- 34:40Speaker 1: I can do that. This dirty old man is using
- 34:46Speaker 1: his own sperm and inseminating all these women with his
- 34:53Speaker 1: own sperm. Okay, help me out with me. Uh. From
- 34:58Speaker 1: a side, I'm a big fan of heavy dot Com.
- 35:02Speaker 1: With me is heavy dot Com report. Jennifer Schakowski. Jennifer,
- 35:06Speaker 1: please tell me I'm wrong. I wish you were. I
- 35:11Speaker 1: truly wish you were. And I'm saying this as someone, um.
- 35:17Speaker 1: You know, not every woman is blessed, obviously to be
- 35:20Speaker 1: able to compete children on their own. I'm a person
- 35:23Speaker 1: I was married later in life than many, but before
- 35:26Speaker 1: I met my husband, the thought of going to a
- 35:29Speaker 1: fertility doctor myself to have a baby on my own.
- 35:33Speaker 1: It did, admit it, admittedly, but briefly crossed my mind.
- 35:38Speaker 1: And you know, I'm not sure future worlds, but a
- 35:40Speaker 1: fertility clinic could be in our future. I can value
- 35:44Speaker 1: one thing. If I had gone when I was single,
- 35:47Speaker 1: I would have hands down wanted the donor to be anonymous.
- 35:52Speaker 1: Um so the way it's just a so creepy, and
- 35:57Speaker 1: he would apparently bring the ladies handy and then drape
- 36:01Speaker 1: them from the waist down. They couldn't see anything that
- 36:03Speaker 1: he was doing. You know what, I don't want to
- 36:05Speaker 1: know what he was doing. What does he like go
- 36:08Speaker 1: into the closet with a video of white hot nurses
- 36:11Speaker 1: and come out with a cup full of sperm. I mean,
- 36:13Speaker 1: I'm just completely grossed out by this whole thing. But
- 36:16Speaker 1: being grossed out is not the whole story started off
- 36:18Speaker 1: from the get go, Jennifer, Yeah, I mean it's disgusting.
- 36:23Speaker 1: So the way it all started out, Nancy. In two
- 36:26Speaker 1: thousand fourteen, a woman named Jacoba Ballard. She knew that
- 36:32Speaker 1: she was a donor, a donor baby, and she became
- 36:36Speaker 1: curious about her family history and she thought she'd started
- 36:40Speaker 1: search in the case to find out if she had
- 36:42Speaker 1: any siblings. She took a DNA test from twenty three
- 36:46Speaker 1: and Me and that's a biotech company that uses salive
- 36:50Speaker 1: examples health determine ancestry identified both close and distant relatives
- 36:56Speaker 1: and also things like health risks and physical traits. So
- 37:00Speaker 1: Jacoba Ballard's results showed showed that she had seven half
- 37:04Speaker 1: to blings, which is when she and two others. Then,
- 37:10Speaker 1: so you're like an only child and you just start
- 37:12Speaker 1: playing around with whatever ancestry dot com or me plus
- 37:18Speaker 1: something to do, and a sudden bam, you find out
- 37:23Speaker 1: you've got seven brothers or sisters. Like, okay, surprise, that
- 37:27Speaker 1: will wake you up in the morning. So Jack Brinkowski
- 37:30Speaker 1: joining me from heavy dot Com. What happens then? Okay?
- 37:36Speaker 1: So then they she got together with two others and
- 37:40Speaker 1: assembled the family tree, and that's when they came to
- 37:44Speaker 1: find out that each of their mothers had all been
- 37:47Speaker 1: Donald clients patients. So that's when the red flakes started
- 37:52Speaker 1: going up. Um Jacoba and a group of the half
- 37:56Speaker 1: to blains they met with Dr Klein and she said
- 38:01Speaker 1: that he had told them all conflicting stories, but then
- 38:05Speaker 1: did eventually admit he had donated s firm about fifty
- 38:09Speaker 1: times to help unknowing patients who were desperate for children.
- 38:15Speaker 1: H Then Jacoba Ballard, along with women whose DNA test
- 38:19Speaker 1: determined that she was a half sisters of hers. They
- 38:23Speaker 1: filed complaints with the Indiana Attorney General's office. Another woman,
- 38:29Speaker 1: Julie Harmon, she had always thought that she had a
- 38:32Speaker 1: biological connection with her father. Years earlier, though she had
- 38:36Speaker 1: a blood test and it showed that her actual blood
- 38:39Speaker 1: type indicated she wasn't the child of both of her parents,
- 38:43Speaker 1: but she really she never followed up on on that test.
- 38:47Speaker 1: Years later is when she saw a news story about
- 38:51Speaker 1: Donald Klein and that news story featured Jacoba Ballard. After
- 38:56Speaker 1: the show, she said, she just knew something was wrong. Uh,
- 39:01Speaker 1: she was right. She ended up having a DNA test
- 39:04Speaker 1: done and and she was linked to Donald Klein with
- 39:07Speaker 1: an accuracy of over so, as Julie Harmon put it,
- 39:14Speaker 1: she had literally thirty five years ripped away from her.
- 39:18Speaker 1: She lost her entire identity to this and and DNA
- 39:24Speaker 1: has showed Dr Klein is very likely the biological father
- 39:28Speaker 1: of as many as twenty children who were tested. That
- 39:33Speaker 1: doesn't include the others that that could still be out there. Ah,
- 39:40Speaker 1: Julie Harmon, So if you can imagine most of the
- 39:48Speaker 1: people who are linked to him, after taking a task,
- 39:50Speaker 1: they had no idea what they were getting themselves into,
- 39:54Speaker 1: and in the end to Coba thought she'd get lucky
- 39:57Speaker 1: and find a siblinger too. Not almost a dozen of them,
- 40:01Speaker 1: and who knows how many more? You know, I'm just
- 40:06Speaker 1: trying to take the whole thing in with me, as
- 40:08Speaker 1: she Willcott, Atlanta juvenile judge, founder of child crime watch
- 40:13Speaker 1: dot com. Our new guest Dr Judith Joseph, New York psychiatrist,
- 40:17Speaker 1: very well known. You can find her at Judith Joseph
- 40:21Speaker 1: MD dot com with a new book coming out in August,
- 40:24Speaker 1: and private investigator Vincent Hill to ask she Wilcott, I mean,
- 40:30Speaker 1: what what we know is that former patients of this
- 40:33Speaker 1: Indianapolis fertility doctor are angry that he avoided jail time
- 40:38Speaker 1: for lying about using his own sperm to get dozens
- 40:42Speaker 1: of women pregnant after telling them the donors were anonymous
- 40:46Speaker 1: his name doctor Donald Klein, and he gets a one
- 40:49Speaker 1: year suspended sentence. He played guilty to two counts of
- 40:54Speaker 1: lying to investigators that substruction of justice. No other charges
- 40:58Speaker 1: were filed, and lawmakers say it's because a fertility doctor
- 41:04Speaker 1: using his own sperm, it's not specifically against the law
- 41:11Speaker 1: in Indiana. Hello, what about alternative charges such as criminal
- 41:17Speaker 1: gross criminal negligence, or criminal conduct or or or criminal fraud.
- 41:22Speaker 1: What about that exactly, especially when it's not just that
- 41:26Speaker 1: he told the mothers these are anonymous um sperm donations.
- 41:31Speaker 1: That he also went two steps further. He said, number one,
- 41:35Speaker 1: no more than three specimens are taken from each person,
- 41:40Speaker 1: so that a mother would think, oh, it's not going
- 41:43Speaker 1: to be one father of thirty children. The second thing
- 41:46Speaker 1: he told them was and the donors are medical residents,
- 41:51Speaker 1: they're in med school. So I'm I'm flabbergasted, frankly as
- 41:56Speaker 1: a judge that you don't see other criminal charges again
- 42:00Speaker 1: to him, because of the length he went to to
- 42:02Speaker 1: mislead all of these potential mothers. I'm just sick about it.
- 42:07Speaker 1: Charged with line to investigators and then no jail time.
- 42:12Speaker 1: It's really over the top. There are dozens of people
- 42:16Speaker 1: who say that they are angry, upset that they have
- 42:22Speaker 1: lost their sense of identity. They're struggling with that they
- 42:25Speaker 1: now find out they've lost a whole lifetime with half siblings.
- 42:29Speaker 1: It goes on and on and on. And he initially
- 42:33Speaker 1: lied about it and then called the people accusing him,
- 42:39Speaker 1: claiming they were committing slander on him to doctor Judith Joseph,
- 42:45Speaker 1: New York psychiatrist, Well, you and doctors Judith, what about
- 42:48Speaker 1: the arrogance? Maybe a god complex? Absolutely, And as a physician,
- 42:55Speaker 1: as a medical doctor myself, you take the hippocratic oath.
- 42:59Speaker 1: You are supposed to protect your patients. And you know
- 43:03Speaker 1: these women they are probably sitting in his office and
- 43:07Speaker 1: crying to him, and he sat with them, and he's
- 43:09Speaker 1: heard their struggles and and I VS. Is painful. So
- 43:14Speaker 1: for him to do that, after hearing these people's struggles
- 43:17Speaker 1: and their their emotional pain, that there's got to be
- 43:21Speaker 1: some element of sociopathy. And again, you know, I haven't
- 43:24Speaker 1: treated him. However, sociopaths lie on arrange, and one thing
- 43:28Speaker 1: that they have in common is that grandiosity, that God complex.
- 43:32Speaker 1: They don't want to be the leader of a cult
- 43:34Speaker 1: of two, they want to be the leader of a
- 43:35Speaker 1: cult of many. And in this person's case, who knows
- 43:38Speaker 1: how many children there were out there, there could be hundreds,
- 43:41Speaker 1: So absolutely likely as sociopaths, a disregard for for others,
- 43:47Speaker 1: a lack of being able to put himself in people's shoes.
- 43:50Speaker 1: This this this narcissism, this sense of entitlement, and they're
- 43:54Speaker 1: very charming, they're highly manipulative. Who knows what the jurors heard,
- 43:57Speaker 1: who knows what they saw? He got off way too easy.
- 44:00Speaker 1: In my opinion, I'm very, very distraught about the way
- 44:04Speaker 1: this whole thing has gone down Vincent Hill with a
- 44:08Speaker 1: easy online DNA test. Now, it's hard to keep a
- 44:12Speaker 1: secret like that, Yeah, Nancy, As far as I'm concerned,
- 44:16Speaker 1: this guy committed sexual assault on a bunch of women
- 44:19Speaker 1: without the physicality piece of it. Yes, they were assuming
- 44:23Speaker 1: they were getting an anonymous donor, but it wasn't him
- 44:26Speaker 1: that they were thinking of. So when he did this,
- 44:28Speaker 1: in his twisted mind, he was sexually assaulting these women
- 44:33Speaker 1: when he did that, and he knew exactly what he
- 44:35Speaker 1: was doing. According to one of his daughters, he says
- 44:39Speaker 1: that he is only his Donald Klein's only remorse was
- 44:44Speaker 1: being caught. What about that, Ashley Willcott? Ashley just texting
- 44:50Speaker 1: me she had to go in. Okay, stop, all right,
- 44:52Speaker 1: Jennifer Sakowski, what about that? I'm sorry? Can you repeat
- 44:58Speaker 1: just that the last part? One? Sorry, I have to
- 45:04Speaker 1: go a patient. Okay, bye, dot A JUDEA, thank you?
- 45:15Speaker 1: Is everybody settled and ready? I'm ready great, Jennifer Sakowski
- 45:21Speaker 1: with me heavy dot com. What about that the one
- 45:25Speaker 1: nearly discovered daughter, Judy Julie Harmon says, quote, his only
- 45:29Speaker 1: remorse was being caught. I mean that is that's despicable.
- 45:36Speaker 1: It's it's disgusting. And I agree, you know, in maybe
- 45:42Speaker 1: in the eye of the Indiana law, it wasn't a problem. Um,
- 45:47Speaker 1: you have to look at the ethical aspects of this,
- 45:51Speaker 1: and I agree he was sexually assaulting these women. That
- 45:55Speaker 1: is what it boils down to. And I cannot believe
- 45:59Speaker 1: that there weren't any any further charges. Um and Julie
- 46:05Speaker 1: Harmon told the Chicago Tribune, Now this was kind of
- 46:08Speaker 1: a something beautiful coming out of a terrible, horrifying story.
- 46:14Speaker 1: She said that whenever she receives an online notification that
- 46:17Speaker 1: a DNA trust has identified yet another half sibling, and
- 46:22Speaker 1: who knows how often this is going to be happening
- 46:25Speaker 1: and how many more there will be, she and two
- 46:30Speaker 1: others who are linked to Donald Tyne through DNA, they
- 46:34Speaker 1: check Facebook for mutual friends who can then explain the situation.
- 46:39Speaker 1: Otherwise one of the three will try to do it themselves.
- 46:43Speaker 1: You know, it's and uh, oh, I'm sorry. Go ahead, Jennifer, Okay,
- 46:50Speaker 1: So what else that I was going to say one
- 46:52Speaker 1: of the mothers who thought that she was being inseminated
- 46:57Speaker 1: by her own husband, what you've got that senten scene?
- 47:01Speaker 1: She said, The least that she would have liked to
- 47:04Speaker 1: have had uh for Dr Klein was an ankle Brieflet.
- 47:09Speaker 1: I mean, come on, would that really be too much
- 47:12Speaker 1: to ask? Nancy? I agree with you with me, Jennifer
- 47:16Speaker 1: Zikowski from heavy dot com. Take a listen to the
- 47:20Speaker 1: biological children of this fertility doctor. I don't even want
- 47:24Speaker 1: to call him a doctor, as they speak out on
- 47:26Speaker 1: w t h R Channel thirteen. It's it's devastating. It's
- 47:31Speaker 1: changed my entire life. I've tried. I cry every day
- 47:35Speaker 1: the best two months. To know that a doctor took
- 47:38Speaker 1: advantage of that situation is unimaginal. I wouldn't even watch
- 47:44Speaker 1: this on my worst never Nancy Grace Crime Stories signing
- 47:49Speaker 1: off asssssssssssssssssss
