Latest / Two Ts In A Pod with Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge / Legally Brunette: Jason Corbett
Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Hi, guys, Welcome to another episode of Legally Brunette. I'll
- 0:04Speaker 1: be your host today Emily Simpson and Shane and Shane.
- 0:09Speaker 1: Just Shane. First of all, we just want to do
- 0:11Speaker 1: a couple little things that have been in the news
- 0:13Speaker 1: lately that I thought was interesting. It's first of all,
- 0:15Speaker 1: we're going to talk about a little bit about Justin
- 0:16Speaker 1: Bieber and the Scooter Braun settlement. I didn't know a
- 0:20Speaker 1: lot about this or that there was anything going on
- 0:22Speaker 1: to do no, so I just did a little research
- 0:25Speaker 1: read some articles. So I just want to give a
- 0:26Speaker 1: brief overview of that if you've seen that in the
- 0:28Speaker 1: news or you had questions about it. So, according to
- 0:31Speaker 1: an article that was in Cosmopolitan, Justin Bieber and his
- 0:34Speaker 1: former manager, Scooter Bron have been locked in a financial
- 0:36Speaker 1: battle since twenty twenty three, after Scooter and his company
- 0:40Speaker 1: Hibe covered the cost of Justin's world tour that he
- 0:44Speaker 1: canceled back in twenty twenty two. Allegedly, he still owed
- 0:48Speaker 1: twenty six million to Hype as Hibe it's with a
- 0:51Speaker 1: B like be as in boy. He still owed twenty
- 0:55Speaker 1: six million to Hibe as of last week. In addition
- 0:58Speaker 1: to this, Justin also reported owed Scooter braun eleven million
- 1:02Speaker 1: in unpaid commissions from when they worked together, and per TMZ,
- 1:08Speaker 1: that's on top of the eight point six million and
- 1:10Speaker 1: unpaid commissions that Scooter agreed to forfeit. So back on
- 1:15Speaker 1: July tenth, TMZ reported that Justin and Scooter had reached
- 1:18Speaker 1: a financial settlement in which Justin agreed to pay Scooter
- 1:22Speaker 1: the twenty six million, as well as five point five
- 1:25Speaker 1: million for unpaid commissions, totaling thirty one point five million.
- 1:31Speaker 1: My question to you is, do you think that it
- 1:33Speaker 1: was easy for him to settle that because now his
- 1:34Speaker 1: wife just got a billion dollars from the sale of
- 1:37Speaker 1: her cosmetic company.
- 1:39Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe I don't really know. Uh so
- 1:42Speaker 2: he's just paying the full amount.
- 1:44Speaker 1: No, he's not paying the full amount. But I mean,
- 1:45Speaker 1: he owed twenty six million and some eleven million in
- 1:48Speaker 1: unpaid commissions and then another eight point six but they
- 1:51Speaker 1: settled on thirty one point five.
- 1:53Speaker 2: Well, he might have settled because he had to. He
- 1:55Speaker 2: canceled that concert like last minute, I remember, yeah, so,
- 1:59Speaker 2: and like I don't I think he gave it very good.
- 2:02Speaker 2: It's not like there was some publicly known reason like
- 2:04Speaker 2: he was in a car wreck where he was ill
- 2:07Speaker 2: or something. He just canceled.
- 2:10Speaker 1: Yeah, and obviously when you have a world tour like
- 2:12Speaker 1: Justin Bieber, you invest millions and millions of dollars in
- 2:15Speaker 1: it to set it up up front.
- 2:17Speaker 2: Oh absolutely, so you're you're footing this.
- 2:19Speaker 1: So basically Scooter Braun and his production company footed the
- 2:23Speaker 1: bill for this world tour.
- 2:24Speaker 2: Bigger question is is that his real name Scooter?
- 2:29Speaker 1: Is that what's on your mind?
- 2:30Speaker 2: Yes, yes, that is, because I bet there's no Scooter
- 2:34Speaker 2: in this world. That said, when I'm older, there's going
- 2:36Speaker 2: to be some pop star that owes me thirty million
- 2:38Speaker 2: dollars and he's gonna pay up.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Yeah, Scooter doesn't go along with thirty million. No, neither
- 2:44Speaker 1: Justin nor Scooter have publicly confirmed the settlement. News of
- 2:47Speaker 1: the settlement comes after The Hollywood Reporter published a story
- 2:50Speaker 1: in April claiming that Justin was twenty million in debt
- 2:52Speaker 1: after canceling his tour and making a series of bad
- 2:56Speaker 1: financial decisions. At that time. When that article came out,
- 3:00Speaker 1: representatives for Justin denied the claims, telling the Hollywood Reporter, quote,
- 3:04Speaker 1: any source that is trying to sell you a story
- 3:06Speaker 1: about alleged financial distress, either doesn't understand the entertainment industry, or,
- 3:10Speaker 1: more likely, is trying to paint an unflattering portrait of
- 3:13Speaker 1: Justin which bears no resemblance to reality. End quote. You know,
- 3:18Speaker 1: I also, I've never been like a big Justin Bieber fan.
- 3:21Speaker 1: I can name like two songs that he's sang. I
- 3:25Speaker 1: feel like when I've seen him in the news lately,
- 3:26Speaker 1: he's been a little dishoveled and not looking quite his
- 3:29Speaker 1: pop stars normally.
- 3:31Speaker 2: When has he looked like a pop star?
- 3:33Speaker 1: When he was younger, he looked like a pop.
- 3:34Speaker 2: Star like fifteen twenty years ago.
- 3:36Speaker 1: So you're saying, now he has a wife and a kid, so.
- 3:39Speaker 2: And tat's all over his body, and oh, he's just
- 3:42Speaker 2: it's just he's got a dad bought and he's got
- 3:45Speaker 2: a puff. Daddy really did a number on him.
- 3:47Speaker 1: Yeah, that is true.
- 3:48Speaker 2: They took away his innocence.
- 3:49Speaker 1: They were connected. This settlement came one day before Justin
- 3:53Speaker 1: released his seventh studio album, Swag, which is his first
- 3:56Speaker 1: album in four years. Haley Bieber, Justin's wife's old her
- 4:00Speaker 1: cosmetic brand road to Elf Beauty at the end of
- 4:04Speaker 1: May for one billion. Some fans speculate it could have
- 4:07Speaker 1: been to help with her husband's financial struggles. I don't
- 4:10Speaker 1: know about that. I don't know.
- 4:11Speaker 2: It's like like you have a little bit of debt,
- 4:13Speaker 2: so you sell your billion dollar company. It doesn't work.
- 4:16Speaker 1: Like like, look, don't worry about it. Justin I to
- 4:20Speaker 1: sell my company for a.
- 4:21Speaker 2: Billion a broad sale to raise some money. I don't
- 4:24Speaker 2: think that's the reason. I'm sure she sold it because
- 4:26Speaker 2: it was a business decision. Yeah, and she's probably like,
- 4:30Speaker 2: my husband doesn't make good business decisions, so I'm going
- 4:32Speaker 2: to make one. I'm going to sell us.
- 4:35Speaker 1: You know, it was crazy to me to think that
- 4:39Speaker 1: a cosmetic company started by someone who's just kind of
- 4:42Speaker 1: out there as an influencer.
- 4:44Speaker 2: It's not like, well, she had more than that. She
- 4:47Speaker 2: had more strings to pull than that. Isn't her dad
- 4:50Speaker 2: a Baldwin?
- 4:51Speaker 1: Yeah, her dad's a bald But that gives.
- 4:54Speaker 2: You opportunity, connections, direction. People are going to come to
- 4:58Speaker 2: you a little bit more and say, can I, you know,
- 5:00Speaker 2: propose this business opportunity. She's gonna have more opportunities. I'm
- 5:03Speaker 2: not saying it's wrong, but clearly she knows where to
- 5:07Speaker 2: start more than I would.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Well, I was just thinking if I started a cosmetic.
- 5:14Speaker 2: Is that her mom Hilaria?
- 5:17Speaker 1: No, that's not her mom.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Oh oh really she has.
- 5:21Speaker 1: That's her uncle's wife.
- 5:23Speaker 2: And it's oh, who's her dad? Her dad's not.
- 5:25Speaker 1: Alec no, or does not Alec Baldwin.
- 5:27Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 5:28Speaker 1: Her dad's Stephen Baldwin. Okay, I believe, but Alec baldw
- 5:31Speaker 1: would be her uncle. And it's hilario.
- 5:36Speaker 2: It's hilarious. She makes that accent all the time and
- 5:39Speaker 2: she's like doing weird stuff.
- 5:41Speaker 1: Well, she said she she said it's because she's bilingual.
- 5:44Speaker 2: To her accent, it's like born and raised here she has,
- 5:47Speaker 2: doesn't she have like some Spanish background? I think? But
- 5:50Speaker 2: all of a sudden I saw that video where she was like,
- 5:53Speaker 2: how do you say cucumbers? It's like, uh yeah, cucumbers,
- 5:58Speaker 2: that's her mother tongue. And then she'd shut him up
- 6:01Speaker 2: in the red carpet and everything. Oh yeah, yeah, that's
- 6:03Speaker 2: why I don't lock the red carpet with you. Yeah.
- 6:05Speaker 1: Yeah, it would be the same, and.
- 6:08Speaker 2: You would shut me up sort of like our living room.
- 6:19Speaker 1: All right, let's move on to Denise Richards and Aaron
- 6:22Speaker 1: Piper's okay. First of all, Shane has been dying to
- 6:26Speaker 1: talk about family law, So I have you? Have you
- 6:29Speaker 1: been saying we should find a family law case to
- 6:31Speaker 1: talk about. So here's a little family law case. So
- 6:34Speaker 1: Aaron Phipers filed his petition to divorce Denise Richards on Monday,
- 6:37Speaker 1: July seventh, after six years of marriage? What is your
- 6:40Speaker 1: first question when you know it's been six years of marriage?
- 6:44Speaker 2: That's my first questions? A legal question or like a
- 6:47Speaker 2: relationship question.
- 6:48Speaker 1: Well, my first question when I saw that they'd been
- 6:50Speaker 1: married for six years, the first thing that popped into
- 6:52Speaker 1: my mind was why didn't he just toick it out
- 6:55Speaker 1: for another four years? Another four years and then filed
- 6:59Speaker 1: for divorce because California, after ten years of marriage, you
- 7:02Speaker 1: can get, or you can at least request permanent spousal support.
- 7:05Speaker 2: Well, it's not permanent, but it's until death, marriage.
- 7:10Speaker 1: Or what's cohabitating?
- 7:14Speaker 2: Somebody's really tough to prove. Yeah, No, it's death or
- 7:17Speaker 2: marriage pretty much is the same thing.
- 7:20Speaker 1: Really, of course I knew I was waiting for you
- 7:22Speaker 1: to say that. Fipers filed his petition in Los Angeles
- 7:25Speaker 1: County Superior Court. He lists July fourth, as the date
- 7:27Speaker 1: of his separation from Richards. I thought this was interesting too,
- 7:30Speaker 1: because I feel like, on July fourth, do people just
- 7:32Speaker 1: get drink too much, watch fireworks and then decide to
- 7:36Speaker 1: get divorced. Like, how does the July fourth the separation?
- 7:39Speaker 1: Like they must have there must have been an incident.
- 7:41Speaker 1: I feel like the two do not share children, but
- 7:44Speaker 1: Richards has two adult daughters with ex husband Charlie Sheene.
- 7:46Speaker 1: She is also the mother of a teenage daughter whom
- 7:49Speaker 1: she adopted as an infant. Fibers is reportedly seeking spousal
- 7:52Speaker 1: support from Richards, according to court documents and his declaration,
- 7:56Speaker 1: because you know he has to. In the petitional declaration,
- 8:01Speaker 1: Viper's claims that he makes no income since closing down
- 8:05Speaker 1: his wellness center last year. I'm going to tell you
- 8:08Speaker 1: his wellness center probably didn't make a lot of income either,
- 8:12Speaker 1: and estimates that Richard's makes more than two hundred and
- 8:15Speaker 1: fifty thousand a month from brand deals, TV shows and
- 8:19Speaker 1: OnlyFans content. Vipers has asked to keep their assets and
- 8:24Speaker 1: debts as separate property, including I thought this was funny,
- 8:28Speaker 1: including his he only wants three things. He just wants
- 8:31Speaker 1: to walk away with three well he wants spousal.
- 8:32Speaker 2: Support should be expousalve sport called spousal support.
- 8:35Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, but he wants to walk away
- 8:37Speaker 1: with not only spousal support, but he wants to keep
- 8:39Speaker 1: his power tools, his motorcycle in a sports car.
- 8:42Speaker 2: Well, I mean, why would he want to give that up?
- 8:46Speaker 1: Well, he wouldn't. But I'm just saying, it's like, it's
- 8:48Speaker 1: like his douchebag collection. I just want to keep my tools.
- 8:51Speaker 2: He had nothing. He had my muscle shirts and my
- 8:56Speaker 2: Corvette hat exactly.
- 8:58Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. It's like he's like just wants
- 9:01Speaker 1: to take his douchebag kit with him on the road.
- 9:03Speaker 2: Now, what happened was he probably didn't have anything, and
- 9:05Speaker 2: then his attorney's like, you got to have something, dude.
- 9:07Speaker 2: He's like, this looks that you look like a deadbeat
- 9:09Speaker 2: if you got nothing.
- 9:10Speaker 1: He's like, I got I got tools. According to the
- 9:14Speaker 1: divorce petition, he claims that he spends nearly one hundred
- 9:18Speaker 1: and five thousand a month including this is what I
- 9:24Speaker 1: don't understand, is this he When you fill out your
- 9:26Speaker 1: financial declaration and you're getting a divorce, are you you're
- 9:31Speaker 1: talking about your current expenses, right, Yeah, but he's saying
- 9:35Speaker 1: that he spends eighteen thousand on rent, which is for
- 9:38Speaker 1: both of them, five thousand on repairs whatever that is,
- 9:42Speaker 1: and seven thousand.
- 9:43Speaker 2: Oh it's like, why does she use your power tools?
- 9:45Speaker 1: Yeah? It's seven thousand on childcare, ten thousand on groceries.
- 9:50Speaker 2: And who's child?
- 9:51Speaker 1: Well, that's what I mean. Like, first of all, their
- 9:53Speaker 1: children are all adult ages, So I have an attorney.
- 9:56Speaker 2: Do you fill it out himself? I don't know.
- 9:58Speaker 1: That's we need to look. I need to acttually look
- 10:00Speaker 1: at the petition and see if he's represented or if
- 10:02Speaker 1: he just did this on his own. And fifteen thousand
- 10:06Speaker 1: on eating out?
- 10:06Speaker 2: Look, I have how much on groceries?
- 10:09Speaker 1: He says ten thousand a month on groceries.
- 10:11Speaker 2: So he goes twenty five hundred dollars a week on
- 10:13Speaker 2: groceries and he eats out at three thousands, at five thousand,
- 10:18Speaker 2: almost five thousand dollars a month, four thousand dollars a
- 10:20Speaker 2: month a week a week. Yeah, so he spends six
- 10:23Speaker 2: thousand plus dollars a week on food. Yah, while someone's
- 10:27Speaker 2: watching is someone else sat? Right?
- 10:30Speaker 1: And don't forget he uses his power tools?
- 10:33Speaker 2: How much time they spent on baby oil. That's my question.
- 10:35Speaker 2: That's where it looks like it's going.
- 10:38Speaker 1: According to a source who spoke with us Weekly, Vipers
- 10:41Speaker 1: has taken on many of the responsibilities at home.
- 10:44Speaker 2: No, he has it. You know, it's right. It's because
- 10:48Speaker 2: he spends all his day putting groceries away.
- 10:52Speaker 1: Because financial declaration screams the opposite of that. Aaron gave
- 10:57Speaker 1: up a lot to help Denise day to day. He
- 10:59Speaker 1: has taken care of the kids, the pets to his parents.
- 11:02Speaker 1: Denise and her work for only fans, and he's fixed
- 11:05Speaker 1: up the houses they've lived in. Okay, that's where the
- 11:07Speaker 1: tools come in his rental house.
- 11:09Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, right, I mean where the people the landlord
- 11:12Speaker 2: should be doing that stuff.
- 11:13Speaker 1: They wouldn't be making ends meet without only fans. The
- 11:16Speaker 1: source shares it saved them findance.
- 11:18Speaker 2: They'd been making ends meet. They spend so much freaking
- 11:20Speaker 2: money on groceries and eating out, well and child care
- 11:24Speaker 2: for you know, unknown children for no.
- 11:26Speaker 1: Well they have three kids, but they're all adults.
- 11:28Speaker 2: Well, he probably pays his kids to watch.
- 11:33Speaker 1: You just have kids.
- 11:34Speaker 2: I don't know. Then, what's she doing with them?
- 11:38Speaker 1: I don't know. He here's the thing, he clease.
- 11:40Speaker 2: Where how did he get in this lifestyle? And I'm
- 11:43Speaker 2: I'm running around doing dishes this morning while you get
- 11:46Speaker 2: your nails done.
- 11:47Speaker 1: I don't know you. Would you like me to do
- 11:49Speaker 1: only fans?
- 11:50Speaker 2: No, they wouldn't be making.
- 11:53Speaker 1: They wouldn't be making ends meet without only fans. The
- 11:57Speaker 1: source shares it saved them financially, and Denny has supported
- 12:00Speaker 1: him financially, backed all of his endeavors and it's been
- 12:03Speaker 1: a drain on their finances. So basically, he filed for
- 12:07Speaker 1: divorce after six years. He's walking away. He wants spousal support,
- 12:10Speaker 1: and he wants to take his car, his motorcycle, and
- 12:13Speaker 1: his tools with him. And that's what I took from that. Wow,
- 12:16Speaker 1: what do you say? Here's my question, because you're a man.
- 12:20Speaker 1: I feel like it's embarrassing for a man to ask
- 12:24Speaker 1: for spousal support.
- 12:25Speaker 2: The guy doesn't work, he doesn't have kids, he isn't
- 12:27Speaker 2: doing that. Also, he's be embarrassed.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Well, I mean that's true.
- 12:31Speaker 2: No, I'd be asked for it. You would, Yeah, if
- 12:33Speaker 2: you're making quarter of a million dollars a month on OnlyFans.
- 12:37Speaker 2: And apparently he's taken the photos for her or whatever.
- 12:39Speaker 2: I want my fair share.
- 12:41Speaker 1: So if we got divorced and then I made that
- 12:43Speaker 1: kind of money on OnlyFans, you would ask for spousal support.
- 12:45Speaker 2: Yes, Oh my gosh, I'm right. Why would you if
- 12:51Speaker 2: I was making two two thousand dollars on only fans.
- 12:54Speaker 1: If you make two hundred and fifty thousand US on
- 12:57Speaker 1: olay fans, I'm not divorcing you. All right, We'll move on.
- 13:02Speaker 1: And there is a new Netflix movie. It is called
- 13:04Speaker 1: A Deadly American Marriage. We're going to talk about it.
- 13:07Speaker 1: It is the case of Jason Corbett's murder.
- 13:09Speaker 2: All right.
- 13:10Speaker 1: Jason Corbett he was an Irish born businessman and father
- 13:13Speaker 1: of two. He was widowed in two thousand and six
- 13:15Speaker 1: from his first wife, Margaret Maggs. She goes by Mags Fitzpatrick.
- 13:20Speaker 1: Maggs was pronounced dead after allegedly suffering a severe asthma attack.
- 13:25Speaker 1: She was a known asthmatic. They had two children that
- 13:28Speaker 1: were just two years old and twelve weeks old at
- 13:30Speaker 1: the time that she died. In two thousand and eight,
- 13:34Speaker 1: Jason Corbett, the dad, hired an American all pair named
- 13:38Speaker 1: Molly Martin's to care for his children. Jack, who was
- 13:42Speaker 1: four at the time, and Sarah two. Jason and Molly
- 13:45Speaker 1: then got engaged in February of twenty and ten and
- 13:49Speaker 1: were married by twenty eleven. Following their wedding, the couple,
- 13:53Speaker 1: along with Jason's two children, Jack and Sarah, moved from
- 13:56Speaker 1: Ireland to North Carolina in April of twenty and eleven.
- 14:00Speaker 1: So he's Irish born. He was living in Ireland with
- 14:02Speaker 1: his first wife, Mas. She dies of an asthma attack.
- 14:05Speaker 1: He has two young children. No, this is all factual.
- 14:10Speaker 1: He has two children.
- 14:11Speaker 2: No, her death, yeah, asthma. Yes, we don't know if
- 14:15Speaker 2: it's true or not.
- 14:16Speaker 1: Anyway, they're in Ireland and he hires an American pair,
- 14:21Speaker 1: which is a nanny to come and she takes care
- 14:24Speaker 1: of these two children. She comes in two thousand and eight,
- 14:27Speaker 1: and they're engaged by twenty ten.
- 14:31Speaker 2: Have you seen the nanny? Is she had nanny from Miami.
- 14:34Speaker 1: I don't know. She was blonde and cue.
- 14:35Speaker 2: It's all very suspicious, see, I don't think. Okay, keep going,
- 14:39Speaker 2: all right.
- 14:39Speaker 1: Following their wedding, the couple, along with Jason's two children,
- 14:42Speaker 1: Jack and Sarah, moved from Ireland to North Carolina. All right,
- 14:44Speaker 1: so now we're in North Carolina in August second of
- 14:48Speaker 1: twenty fifteen, Molly's father, Thomas Martin, called a nine to
- 14:52Speaker 1: one to one dispatcher and said he had intervened in
- 14:55Speaker 1: a fight between Molly and Jason at their home. He's
- 14:58Speaker 1: bleeding all over and I I may have killed him,
- 15:01Speaker 1: said Thomas, who previously led a thirty year career as
- 15:04Speaker 1: an FBI agent. Upon arriving at the scene, authorities found
- 15:08Speaker 1: Jason unresponsive and apparently beaten with a baseball batch and
- 15:12Speaker 1: a paving stone. He quickly died from his injuries. Thomas
- 15:17Speaker 1: and Mollie told authorities that Jason's death resulted from a
- 15:20Speaker 1: domestic disturbance. Thomas testified he found Jason strangling Mollie and
- 15:25Speaker 1: refusing to let go while threatening to kill her, leading
- 15:28Speaker 1: the father and daughter to respond in self defense. Okay, okay,
- 15:34Speaker 1: let me go through this because I watched the documentary.
- 15:36Speaker 1: So it's the middle of the night and the dad,
- 15:39Speaker 1: So Mollie Martin's parents are staying in their house. I
- 15:41Speaker 1: think they're visiting. So they're like in the basement, the
- 15:44Speaker 1: mom and the dad. The dad. Mollie Martin's dad worked
- 15:48Speaker 1: for the FBI for like thirty years. Okay, they're in
- 15:50Speaker 1: the basement. Mollie the o pair who is now.
- 15:54Speaker 2: The wife, the new wife.
- 15:55Speaker 1: Yeah, the new wife and the husband are in bed
- 15:59Speaker 1: and apparently there was some altercation in the middle of
- 16:03Speaker 1: the night where he became angry and he was strangling her.
- 16:07Speaker 1: This is what they are alleging. The dad, who is
- 16:11Speaker 1: in the basement, hears a struggle upstairs, so he claims, no, no,
- 16:16Speaker 1: he grabbed the bat. So he grabs a bat, a
- 16:19Speaker 1: baseball bat, and he comes into the bedroom and Mollie
- 16:23Speaker 1: apparently just happened to have a brick on the side
- 16:27Speaker 1: of like on her bedstand next to the bed. She
- 16:30Speaker 1: claims the kids were painting pavers, so she just happened
- 16:34Speaker 1: to have one on her bedside table. She didn't put
- 16:39Speaker 1: her paper away. So when this dad comes into the room,
- 16:43Speaker 1: according this is according to their story, because there's only
- 16:45Speaker 1: two people alive, right, he claims that he sees the husband,
- 16:49Speaker 1: Jason Corbett, strangling Mollie. He won't let go, and so
- 16:53Speaker 1: the two of them beat him into oblivion with a
- 16:57Speaker 1: baseball bat and paver and so.
- 17:00Speaker 2: Left alive or the new wife.
- 17:02Speaker 1: And her father his father, her father, her father who
- 17:05Speaker 1: worked for the FBI for thirty years now. I saw scenes,
- 17:09Speaker 1: photographs from the crime scene in this documentary. There is blood, Oh.
- 17:14Speaker 2: This is one? Where was blood everywhere? Huh?
- 17:16Speaker 1: Everywhere? They this is? And when you claim self defense,
- 17:19Speaker 1: like I'm not a criminal law attorney, but I took criminal.
- 17:22Speaker 2: Law, well, I would think one hit on the head
- 17:23Speaker 2: with a paver is enough.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Self defense is basically reasonable force or the same type
- 17:30Speaker 1: of force that is being used against you. Like if
- 17:32Speaker 1: someone's you know, hitting you with a book.
- 17:34Speaker 2: Well it's enough to stop the imminent.
- 17:36Speaker 1: Threat, right, But you can't use deadly force as self defense.
- 17:40Speaker 1: If someone isn't using deadly force against.
- 17:42Speaker 2: Me, I would think choking is deadly force.
- 17:45Speaker 1: I would too. But when you have two people and
- 17:47Speaker 1: one has a brick and one has a baseball bat,
- 17:49Speaker 1: I feel like one whack with a baseball bat is
- 17:51Speaker 1: going to get the guy to let go. If that's
- 17:53Speaker 1: allegedly what was happening.
- 17:54Speaker 2: I don't know. He might have hit him twice three times, Well,
- 17:58Speaker 2: they hit him times. That might have been scared out
- 18:01Speaker 2: of their minds and they just kept beating him until
- 18:04Speaker 2: he wouldn't move. If we don't know, No, here's the
- 18:07Speaker 2: thing that I was getting at earlier. The first wife's
- 18:09Speaker 2: murder is now suspic or excuse me, death passing is suspicious.
- 18:14Speaker 2: She dies as asthma, yes, and then he's found choking
- 18:18Speaker 2: his new wife. Well, think about it.
- 18:20Speaker 1: Well, I have thought about it. But you also have
- 18:22Speaker 1: to realize that Mollie Martin's and her dad are the
- 18:25Speaker 1: only two people that are alive that can say what happened.
- 18:28Speaker 1: That evening, investigators arrived to find Jason's naked body sprawled
- 18:33Speaker 1: in the master bedroom, surrounded by extensive blood splatters on
- 18:36Speaker 1: the floors, walls, doors, bed, hallway, and even bathroom surfaces,
- 18:40Speaker 1: indicating a violent struggle occurred. Expert Stuart James identified multiple
- 18:45Speaker 1: impact spatter zones on the quilt inside the mattress box spring,
- 18:50Speaker 1: suggesting Jason took initial blows while still in bed.
- 18:53Speaker 2: So is it leading towards the Maybe it was just
- 18:55Speaker 2: a flat out murder like he was in bed, laying
- 18:58Speaker 2: down and then was beaten.
- 19:00Speaker 1: Long walls at varying heights, indicating strikes as he fell
- 19:03Speaker 1: and moved through the room. Cast Off patterns on a
- 19:06Speaker 1: vacuum cleaner and Jason's boxer shorts showed blood flung off
- 19:09Speaker 1: swinging weapons at different angles. A baseball bat and a
- 19:13Speaker 1: concrete paving brick, both found covered in Jason's blood and hair,
- 19:16Speaker 1: were established as the murder weapon. Mollie Martin's reportedly spent
- 19:20Speaker 1: fifty five hundred dollars to have the home professionally cleaned
- 19:22Speaker 1: just hours after she was released from questioning. The cleaning
- 19:26Speaker 1: removed blood traces, which complicated forensic follow up at the house.
- 19:31Speaker 2: I don't know how they preserve the scene.
- 19:33Speaker 1: That's that's see. I was just going to ask that
- 19:35Speaker 1: that doesn't make any sense. You come up on this
- 19:36Speaker 1: scene where someone's been murdered and there's a baseball bat
- 19:40Speaker 1: and a paver as weapons, and there's blood splatter everywhere.
- 19:43Speaker 1: You don't know exactly what happened. But she paid fifty
- 19:46Speaker 1: five hundred dollars the next day to clean it all up. Yeah,
- 19:49Speaker 1: I mean, did they get all the photos and evidence
- 19:53Speaker 1: that they needed in their I don't want that initial.
- 19:56Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean it doesn't sound like it,
- 19:58Speaker 2: but I don't know.
- 19:59Speaker 1: It doesn't seem to be because, first of all, when
- 20:00Speaker 1: there's a nine to one one call about a murderer,
- 20:03Speaker 1: are they going to immediately send like these forensic specialists.
- 20:06Speaker 1: At that time, they're just going to send police and
- 20:09Speaker 1: a coroner and then they're probably going to come back
- 20:11Speaker 1: and investigate.
- 20:12Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they would call homicide team or something, right,
- 20:15Speaker 2: like a specialized forensic because clearly it's foul play, right.
- 20:19Speaker 1: So, but I mean, even what we learned from just
- 20:22Speaker 1: going through Karen Reid was that there were multiple times
- 20:24Speaker 1: that there was these specialized forensic teams that came in
- 20:27Speaker 1: on the specific things.
- 20:28Speaker 2: I bet look at her call log. I bet she
- 20:30Speaker 2: called the boss and police department said how do I
- 20:32Speaker 2: clean up the crime scene? And I need to rehome
- 20:35Speaker 2: my dog? What do I do?
- 20:36Speaker 1: Yeah? How do I get rid of this favor? Mollie
- 20:39Speaker 1: was also working diligently to get Jason's body cremated before
- 20:43Speaker 1: Jason's sister, Tracy Lynch and her husband David Lynch had
- 20:47Speaker 1: a chance to examine the body. Now, so Jason the deceased,
- 20:51Speaker 1: his family is all in Ireland. But Mollie was unsuccessful
- 20:55Speaker 1: and Tracy was able to see firsthand what was done
- 20:57Speaker 1: to her brother. Now we get to August six of
- 21:00Speaker 1: twenty fifteen, Jack and Sarah Corbett. These are the two children. Okay,
- 21:04Speaker 1: h they are brought to the Dragonfly Child Advocacy Center
- 21:08Speaker 1: for questioning Jack. They're ten and eight at the time. Jack,
- 21:13Speaker 1: age ten, told social workers he had seen Jason get
- 21:17Speaker 1: angry with Mollie and that Jason had physically hurt her,
- 21:21Speaker 1: saying that he witnessed it firsthand. Sarah, who was age eight,
- 21:25Speaker 1: echoed this, saying their father yelled and hurt Mollie. However,
- 21:29Speaker 1: when probed, she admitted it wasn't based on a direct observation,
- 21:33Speaker 1: but rather things she heard from her mom. Now remember
- 21:36Speaker 1: this is not her biological mom. Mollie Martin's is the nanny,
- 21:40Speaker 1: the nanny who married the dad who became a stepmom.
- 21:44Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:45Speaker 1: Sarah also said that she used the code words galaxy
- 21:49Speaker 1: and peacock with Molly's mother to signal when Jason became angry.
- 21:53Speaker 2: Peacock.
- 21:55Speaker 1: You know, I saw them say that when they.
- 21:57Speaker 2: Were Was that like safe words or something?
- 21:59Speaker 1: Well, I think they were so that if she wanted
- 22:01Speaker 1: to call and tell someone there was something going on,
- 22:04Speaker 1: they could say peacock instead of saying dad's being angry
- 22:07Speaker 1: and he overheard it. It was like a code word
- 22:10Speaker 1: to say, like there was trouble at the house. Right
- 22:15Speaker 1: then the children rescinded their statements. So this is where
- 22:18Speaker 1: it gets complicated. When I was first watching this documentary,
- 22:20Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, it seems pretty straightforward. She marries him,
- 22:24Speaker 1: she marries him quickly, she becomes a step mom. She's
- 22:27Speaker 1: really into these kids' lives, like she does everything for them.
- 22:31Speaker 1: She clearly wants to be their mom. She wants to
- 22:33Speaker 1: adopt them. I know she wants to adopt them, but
- 22:36Speaker 1: he won't. I think he like maybe strings her along
- 22:39Speaker 1: and is like, well, maybe you can adopt them, but
- 22:40Speaker 1: he never actually allows her to adopt the children, so
- 22:43Speaker 1: she never formally adopts them.
- 22:46Speaker 2: Why is he controlling over this? I wonder?
- 22:49Speaker 1: I don't. I mean, I don't know. Maybe after he
- 22:52Speaker 1: married her, maybe there were some red flags. I don't know.
- 22:56Speaker 1: I mean, he may die a date that long.
- 22:58Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like I have plans to kill you, so
- 23:00Speaker 2: I don't need to go through this adoption.
- 23:04Speaker 1: You know what?
- 23:04Speaker 2: Another way to ask for like code for help? What
- 23:09Speaker 2: is like if you're if there's a burglar there or
- 23:11Speaker 2: someone there and they say call like if you had
- 23:15Speaker 2: if someone's holding me hostage, they say, get Emily Simpson
- 23:18Speaker 2: down here. We're really upset with her in last week's episode,
- 23:22Speaker 2: we want to attack her. Okay, this is actually I
- 23:25Speaker 2: would call you and say I need you to come home, dear,
- 23:29Speaker 2: and can you bring me the Beatles fifth album?
- 23:34Speaker 1: Why the Beatles fifth album?
- 23:35Speaker 2: And then and I'll say I need to borrow it.
- 23:37Speaker 2: Can you bring it home with you or pick it
- 23:39Speaker 2: up on your way home?
- 23:41Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 23:41Speaker 2: Well then the fifth album's name is help.
- 23:44Speaker 1: Oh yeah, doesn't that sound suspicious? And if you're in
- 23:47Speaker 1: front of kidnappers and you're telling me to bring the
- 23:49Speaker 1: Beatles fifth album, you don't think they're going to find
- 23:51Speaker 1: that strange.
- 23:53Speaker 2: I don't think they're savvy enough.
- 23:54Speaker 1: That sounds like a normal call.
- 23:57Speaker 2: On a Chips episode when I was a little kid,
- 24:01Speaker 2: and I've been waiting to use that ever since.
- 24:04Speaker 1: Well, now you have had the opportunity.
- 24:05Speaker 2: No I didn't. No, I didn't get to use it.
- 24:07Speaker 2: Oh you mean you want to actually? Yes? Yes?
- 24:09Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. All right. Once Tracy and David Lynch
- 24:13Speaker 1: were given custody of the children. This is his sister
- 24:16Speaker 1: and his brother in law that lives in Ireland, they
- 24:18Speaker 1: were given custody of the children. She wanted custody of
- 24:21Speaker 1: the kids, but they were given custody, but she never
- 24:24Speaker 1: adopted them formally, so they went to the aunt and
- 24:27Speaker 1: the uncle. Per Jason's will, they traveled back to Ireland
- 24:32Speaker 1: in August of twenty fifteen. Within days of their return,
- 24:35Speaker 1: they began to recant the statements they made at the
- 24:37Speaker 1: Dragonfly Center, telling their aunt Tercy, that they had been
- 24:39Speaker 1: coached by Mollie to say their father was abusive in
- 24:42Speaker 1: a Skype interview in twenty sixteen. So Jack is the
- 24:46Speaker 1: oldest son and in this documentary there's a lot of
- 24:51Speaker 1: interviews with him, and he's very emotional and he claims
- 24:55Speaker 1: that he was coached to say these things, that he
- 24:57Speaker 1: actually thought his dad was a great dad, and then
- 24:59Speaker 1: he had a very close relationship with his dad. But
- 25:02Speaker 1: he also wanted to I don't know, like he was
- 25:05Speaker 1: close with Molly because that's the only mom he really knew,
- 25:08Speaker 1: and so he admits, so he wanted to do the
- 25:12Speaker 1: skype interview and he wants to admit that quote, I
- 25:15Speaker 1: didn't tell the truth that Dragonfly Molly made me lie. Sarah,
- 25:18Speaker 1: the daughter, similarly discussed or disclosed in diary entries that
- 25:22Speaker 1: she was instructed by Molly on what to say. So
- 25:25Speaker 1: then we get to the trial in twenty seventeen, the
- 25:28Speaker 1: defense sought to include Jack and Sarah's statements. However, the
- 25:32Speaker 1: court excluded them, citing a lack of personal knowledge and
- 25:34Speaker 1: the fact that they'd been recanted, classifying them as unreliable hearsay.
- 25:39Speaker 1: Mollie had been accused of lying to friends and family,
- 25:42Speaker 1: i e. Claiming she gave birth to Sarah, which helped
- 25:45Speaker 1: reinforce this manipulation claim. So in August of twenty seventeen,
- 25:50Speaker 1: Mollie Martin's and Tom Martins were found guilty of second
- 25:53Speaker 1: degree murder in Jason Corbett's death by a jury in
- 25:56Speaker 1: the Davison County Superior Court. Know, this is one of
- 26:01Speaker 1: those cases where when I was watching it in the beginning,
- 26:03Speaker 1: it seemed very straightforward to me, Like they got married,
- 26:05Speaker 1: she wanted to adopt the kids. He was probably abusive
- 26:09Speaker 1: to her. Her dad jumped in and intervened, they beat
- 26:12Speaker 1: him up. But then these kids and then these kids say, oh, yeah,
- 26:15Speaker 1: he was abusive towards her, corroborating it, but then they
- 26:19Speaker 1: recan't later and they're like, we didn't want to say that.
- 26:21Speaker 1: We don't really believe that we were coached by her.
- 26:24Speaker 1: So I had a hard time actually deciphering who was guilty,
- 26:30Speaker 1: who was at fault, whether he was aggressive that night
- 26:34Speaker 1: or not. In February of twenty twenty, so we're talking
- 26:37Speaker 1: about three years later, the North Carolina Court of Appeals
- 26:40Speaker 1: overturned Molly and Thomas Martin's twenty seventeen convictions, citing prejudicial errors.
- 26:45Speaker 1: Molly and Tom's lawyers specifically referenced the exclusion of Jack
- 26:49Speaker 1: and Sarah's Dragonfly interviews, the hidden recording devices Molly left
- 26:54Speaker 1: throughout the house to document Jason's alleged abuse, and their
- 26:57Speaker 1: claim that the death of Jason's first wife was due
- 27:00Speaker 1: to strangulation, not an asthma attack. So they get out
- 27:06Speaker 1: on appeal because the defense said that these things were
- 27:10Speaker 1: not allowed in the first trial. First of all, they
- 27:13Speaker 1: didn't allow those interviews at that Dragonfly place with the
- 27:16Speaker 1: little kids because they said because the kids recanted them.
- 27:20Speaker 1: So they were like, what's right, what's the truth here?
- 27:23Speaker 1: They're saying that it was and now they're saying that
- 27:25Speaker 1: it wasn't. How do you rely on those initial statements
- 27:28Speaker 1: that were made, but those were not used in the
- 27:30Speaker 1: first trial. Also in this documentary, you can tell she
- 27:34Speaker 1: leaves recording devices around. But here's the thing with the
- 27:36Speaker 1: recording devices, And let me know what you think about this.
- 27:39Speaker 1: She knows there's a recording device in the kitchen, and
- 27:42Speaker 1: I saw a scene of this.
- 27:44Speaker 2: What was the purpose of her recording device?
- 27:45Speaker 1: Because she was getting evidence that he's aggressive or abusive.
- 27:50Speaker 1: So she had a recording device in the kitchen. Oh okay,
- 27:53Speaker 1: she knows it's recording. So I'm saying it was very
- 27:57Speaker 1: to me. I'm watching it, and it feels very easy
- 28:00Speaker 1: for her to manipulate the situation. She's very calm and cool, right, right, right.
- 28:05Speaker 2: She put on her poker face.
- 28:06Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, I don't know. He's like upset. He came
- 28:09Speaker 1: home from work and he's upset about the dinner or
- 28:11Speaker 1: soup or something. I don't know. I didn't think it
- 28:12Speaker 1: was aggressive or overly abusive or anything. I thought maybe
- 28:16Speaker 1: he was just being kind of a jerk. But I
- 28:20Speaker 1: don't know if that's evidence that this man would strangle.
- 28:25Speaker 2: As Why if I acted that way, would you say
- 28:27Speaker 2: jerk or abusive?
- 28:28Speaker 1: I would say jerk. I wouldn't say it was abusive.
- 28:32Speaker 1: But I also feel as if it's a setup. She's recording.
- 28:36Speaker 1: She knows it's recording. She puts it in the kitchen.
- 28:39Speaker 1: He comes home from work. He's probably tired from the day.
- 28:42Speaker 1: He's being he's being crappy. He's not being great.
- 28:46Speaker 2: No, yeah, it's not. It wasn't like organic interaction unknown
- 28:51Speaker 2: to either party. That is being recorded, right, clearly, she's
- 28:56Speaker 2: setting him up.
- 28:57Speaker 1: Right, And I don't know. Maybe he comes home from
- 28:59Speaker 1: work every irritated. Maybe he has bad days at work
- 29:02Speaker 1: and he comes home and he's irritated. She knows he's
- 29:03Speaker 1: going to be irritated. She puts a recording device in
- 29:06Speaker 1: the kitchen. She stays cool and calm.
- 29:08Speaker 2: Maybe she has cool and calm.
- 29:10Speaker 1: She hit him with a paper in the head until
- 29:12Speaker 1: his brain matter was.
- 29:13Speaker 2: Well, she lost it.
- 29:15Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 29:16Speaker 2: All I know is his first wife died of asthma,
- 29:18Speaker 2: and that's suspicious.
- 29:20Speaker 1: You can't get past the asthma, can't you?
- 29:21Speaker 2: No?
- 29:22Speaker 1: All right? And the North Carolina Supreme Court, in a
- 29:25Speaker 1: four to three vote, affirmed the decision, officially vacating the
- 29:28Speaker 1: murder convictions and remanding for a new trial. So a
- 29:32Speaker 1: new retrial was initially scheduled to begin on June twenty
- 29:35Speaker 1: sixth of twenty twenty three. However, to avoid another trial,
- 29:40Speaker 1: Molly pleaded no contest and Tom this is her Dad,
- 29:44Speaker 1: pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter per a negotiated plea deal.
- 29:50Speaker 1: Both were sentenced to fifty one to seventy four months
- 29:53Speaker 1: in prison. You thought I was gonna say years.
- 29:55Speaker 2: In Well, still at fifty one.
- 29:58Speaker 1: To seventy four months in prison, with credit for the
- 30:01Speaker 1: forty four months already served, effectively leaving them around seven
- 30:05Speaker 1: to thirty months remaining. In June sixth of twenty twenty four,
- 30:10Speaker 1: Molly and Tom were both released from prison. A Deadly
- 30:14Speaker 1: American Marriage was released on Netflix with interviews from Mollie, Tom, Jack, Sarah, Tracy,
- 30:19Speaker 1: and David. In this documentary, we witnessed Jack and Sarah
- 30:22Speaker 1: prepare for the retrial and recount their personal experiences of
- 30:26Speaker 1: manipulation at the hands of Mollie. Mollie and her dad
- 30:30Speaker 1: Tom are adamant that it was an act of self defense,
- 30:34Speaker 1: but Jason's family and children are not convinced and believe
- 30:37Speaker 1: that he was murdered in cold blood. So I don't know.
- 30:41Speaker 1: It's very interesting. I want you guys to watch it
- 30:43Speaker 1: and tell me what you think. Because I was still
- 30:44Speaker 1: at the end of it, I was still conflicted whether
- 30:46Speaker 1: I felt as if he was so aggressive that night
- 30:50Speaker 1: that they really needed to use a baseball bat and
- 30:53Speaker 1: a brick paver to his head.
- 30:55Speaker 2: So does she had cameras recording prior to all this?
- 30:58Speaker 1: It wasn't cameras. It was recording, was audio recording audio.
- 31:01Speaker 1: It was audio recordings. But to me, I felt as
- 31:04Speaker 1: if she was doing that because she was setting up right,
- 31:07Speaker 1: I know, you know, she's setting up her her evidence.
- 31:10Speaker 2: Yeah, it was clearly in her favor.
- 31:12Speaker 1: Yeah, it was premeditated. It's premeditated that she's getting, you know,
- 31:16Speaker 1: this evidence in order that she wants.
- 31:18Speaker 2: To use building her case.
- 31:19Speaker 1: She's building a case. She wanted to adopt these children.
- 31:23Speaker 1: He would never formally allow her to adopt them. I
- 31:26Speaker 1: think she was really mad about that because I think
- 31:29Speaker 1: she had plans of like divorcing him and taking the kids.
- 31:31Speaker 1: I think she was obsessed with the kids. That's my takeaway.
- 31:34Speaker 1: I don't know. So she killed wife, No, she didn't
- 31:37Speaker 1: know the first wife, But I'm saying she wasn't the nanny.
- 31:41Speaker 1: She was the nanny after the first wife died. Remember
- 31:44Speaker 1: they didn't have a nanny. He was married and it
- 31:46Speaker 1: was a moment they had no they had young kids together.
- 31:50Speaker 1: The first wife dies, They're.
- 31:53Speaker 2: In Ireland right then he goes then.
- 31:57Speaker 1: Hires the nanny to help take care of the kids,
- 31:59Speaker 1: and then he quickly mary nanny, quickly marries the nanny,
- 32:02Speaker 1: but the nanny becomes In my opinion, based upon what
- 32:05Speaker 1: I watched and what I saw in the interviews and everything,
- 32:07Speaker 1: I felt as if Mollie Martins was obsessed with these children.
- 32:12Speaker 1: I felt as if she was obsessed with being their mom,
- 32:15Speaker 1: them being hers. As I said earlier, she had even
- 32:18Speaker 1: lied to other friends and family about giving birth to them.
- 32:21Speaker 2: Oh wow, that's like that movie Rock the Cradle. Yeah,
- 32:24Speaker 2: Like I mean, I remember the mom would come home
- 32:27Speaker 2: be like, my baby's not drinking milk. That's because she
- 32:30Speaker 2: was breast.
- 32:31Speaker 1: Yeah, that's very Molly Martins.
- 32:32Speaker 2: Like.
- 32:32Speaker 1: My takeaway was that she was so obsessed with these
- 32:35Speaker 1: children and that he would not allow her to legally
- 32:38Speaker 1: informally adopt them. So she knew if there was a
- 32:40Speaker 1: divorce or whatever, did he.
- 32:42Speaker 2: Have money or did he have anything any type of
- 32:45Speaker 2: financial appeal that maybe she thought she would take the
- 32:50Speaker 2: kids in the money.
- 32:52Speaker 1: I don't think it had to do with money, she
- 32:53Speaker 1: was as truly.
- 32:54Speaker 2: Obsessed with two kids.
- 32:55Speaker 1: I think she was truly obsessed with the children and
- 32:57Speaker 1: being their mother.
- 32:58Speaker 2: Was she not able to have her own kids? Do
- 32:59Speaker 2: you know anything like that?
- 33:01Speaker 1: You know, I don't know if she was able to
- 33:02Speaker 1: have her own children. I don't. I feel as if
- 33:04Speaker 1: when she was the nanny for these kids, they were
- 33:07Speaker 1: so young and they didn't have a mother at all,
- 33:10Speaker 1: that she just became the mother figure, right.
- 33:12Speaker 2: And she so as far as she was concerned with
- 33:14Speaker 2: price since since.
- 33:16Speaker 1: And I believe they called her mom, like quickly after
- 33:19Speaker 1: they were married.
- 33:19Speaker 2: They start that's all they knew.
- 33:20Speaker 1: That's all they knew. Yeah, And I think she was
- 33:23Speaker 1: so obsessed with these children that I don't know. My
- 33:27Speaker 1: takeaway is, especially since there was a brick and a bat.
- 33:30Speaker 2: Well, you're obsessed with our children. Should I worry?
- 33:33Speaker 1: I am obsessed with our children, Yes, Should I worry? No?
- 33:36Speaker 1: Because I have legal rights to them. She had no
- 33:39Speaker 1: legal rights to the children. That's what made me think.
- 33:41Speaker 1: And also her her trail of evidence that she was
- 33:43Speaker 1: setting up and the recordings before that incident, and the
- 33:48Speaker 1: dad was an FBI. He worked for the FBI for
- 33:51Speaker 1: thirty years. He knows what to say and what to do. Yeah,
- 33:55Speaker 1: and he knows how to answer the questions.
- 33:57Speaker 2: Well, they should do a test on the paper. Was
- 33:59Speaker 2: the pay Was the paver really part of that property? No?
- 34:03Speaker 1: They were the kids, the kids who had an art project.
- 34:06Speaker 2: You know how you can paint, I know, but did
- 34:08Speaker 2: they really have that?
- 34:10Speaker 1: Well, there were there were other pavers that were painted.
- 34:12Speaker 2: Oh, maybe she set that up. Maybe she went and
- 34:14Speaker 2: bought papers, said hey, kids, we're gonna paint some papers.
- 34:17Speaker 2: The kids were like, well there's one extra, and oh yeah,
- 34:19Speaker 2: I don't worry about that, but I'll leave it Benet,
- 34:20Speaker 2: that's mine. I'll paint it later. Yeah, I'm gonna paint
- 34:22Speaker 2: it read later.
- 34:23Speaker 1: Yes, that's what I'm saying. I'm telling you it is not.
- 34:26Speaker 1: I watched this documentary and it left me with more
- 34:29Speaker 1: questions than answers. I found her very manipulative. The dad,
- 34:33Speaker 1: her dad worked for the FBI. I don't know if
- 34:37Speaker 1: I see the husband as aggressive. The way she explains it,
- 34:40Speaker 1: she's building a case. She's recording him when he doesn't
- 34:43Speaker 1: know it. The kids are recanting and saying that she
- 34:46Speaker 1: manipulated them and told them what to say. I don't know.
- 34:48Speaker 1: I just I had a hard time with her. So anyway,
- 34:51Speaker 1: if you get the opportunity, watch it on Netflix. DM
- 34:53Speaker 1: me tell me what you think, because it's called a
- 34:56Speaker 1: Deadly American Marriage. All right. I wanted to come back
- 35:07Speaker 1: to we've talked about last time. I believe we talked
- 35:10Speaker 1: about Brian.
- 35:10Speaker 2: Coburger and the Okay, the Coburger.
- 35:13Speaker 1: Now we're moving on to Coburger just a little bit
- 35:15Speaker 1: here at the end. I want to go into that
- 35:17Speaker 1: just because he did take a plea deal. But there's
- 35:20Speaker 1: also just to tell you guys, if you like to
- 35:22Speaker 1: watch all this true crime stuff like I do, there's
- 35:24Speaker 1: a new documentary. It's called One Night in Idaho. It's
- 35:27Speaker 1: a new Coburger documentary and it came out on July eleventh,
- 35:30Speaker 1: and it's on Prime if you guys would like to
- 35:32Speaker 1: watch it. So, Brian Coberger, we know, has formally confessed
- 35:35Speaker 1: in writing to the twenty twenty two Idaho murders. And
- 35:38Speaker 1: he did not provide any explanation for the murders. There's
- 35:41Speaker 1: no motive in there whatsoever. However, this is what I
- 35:44Speaker 1: think is interesting. So there's a new book coming out
- 35:46Speaker 1: and I pre ordered it and it's written by an
- 35:48Speaker 1: investigative journalist who has been covering the stories from day
- 35:52Speaker 1: one in Idaho. And also Scott Patterson, who we know
- 35:55Speaker 1: is is a huge fed author. I mean he's very basic.
- 36:00Speaker 2: Scott yeah written.
- 36:01Speaker 1: I know you're gonna ask me that I have no idea.
- 36:03Speaker 2: Well, you said he's very famous, So what is he written?
- 36:05Speaker 1: I don't know. I haven't read any of his books.
- 36:07Speaker 1: He's famous, but apparently, and I thought this was very interesting.
- 36:12Speaker 1: Brian Coberger had a fascination with a serial killer named
- 36:15Speaker 1: Elliott Roger. Elliott Roger has since become a figure in
- 36:19Speaker 1: the in cell or involuntary celibate's movement. I had never
- 36:23Speaker 1: heard of Booth either. Have you ever heard of this
- 36:25Speaker 1: involuntary celibacy? Involuntary celibacy you do wear like a padlock
- 36:31Speaker 1: underwear or something. No, it's because you're rejected, so to speak.
- 36:39Speaker 1: You're you're found, you're not found appealing by women.
- 36:43Speaker 2: Oh, involuntary, Like, no one's forcing you to be celibate, right,
- 36:47Speaker 2: but based on your unfortunate circumstances, you cannot break celibacy, right,
- 36:53Speaker 2: got it?
- 36:54Speaker 1: So Coburger took a class about serial killers and their motives.
- 36:58Speaker 1: Including that of Elliott Roger, who was a twenty no
- 37:04Speaker 1: who was a twenty two year old virgin, who was
- 37:07Speaker 1: who fatally stabbed or shot six people and injured fourteen
- 37:11Speaker 1: in East La Vista, California, before killing himself in May
- 37:15Speaker 1: of twenty fourteen. Okay, first of all, I've never heard
- 37:17Speaker 1: of this guy, but I find this really interesting. He
- 37:20Speaker 1: had posted a video online about his plan to kill
- 37:24Speaker 1: his revenge for being rejected by women. In this video,
- 37:27Speaker 1: he says, I'm twenty two years old and I'm still
- 37:30Speaker 1: a virgin. I've never even kissed a girl. I don't
- 37:34Speaker 1: know why you girls aren't attracted to me, but I
- 37:36Speaker 1: will punish you all for it. It's an injustice, a crime,
- 37:40Speaker 1: because I don't know what you don't see in me.
- 37:42Speaker 1: I'm the perfect guy, and yet you throw yourselves at
- 37:45Speaker 1: these obnoxious men instead of me, the supreme gentleman. I
- 37:49Speaker 1: will punish all of you for it. So then he
- 37:52Speaker 1: goes on to murder six people based upon this anger
- 37:58Speaker 1: that he has because he is a twenty two year
- 38:01Speaker 1: old virgin and women are not interested in him.
- 38:03Speaker 2: Wow.
- 38:05Speaker 1: Christine Cameron, who was an administrator of that turnout for him,
- 38:08Speaker 1: he killed himself and may have two thousand and five.
- 38:11Speaker 1: Clearly he died a virgin.
- 38:12Speaker 2: Well.
- 38:14Speaker 1: Christine Cameron, who is an administrator of the University of
- 38:16Speaker 1: Idaho murders facebook page, said that shortly after the murders
- 38:20Speaker 1: were conducted, a Facebook user named Papa Roger. Remember this
- 38:25Speaker 1: guy's name is Elliott Roger and he's dead, began leaving
- 38:28Speaker 1: disturbing messages and their discussion group. Cameron said, after Brian
- 38:34Speaker 1: Coberger is arrested, I start thinking, Okay, Papa Roger, Elliott Roger.
- 38:39Speaker 1: If you listen to some of the manifestos of Elliott Roger,
- 38:42Speaker 1: he talks about hating all the girls from Alpha Phi,
- 38:45Speaker 1: which is the same sorority that Kaylee Gonsalves was in.
- 38:49Speaker 2: You know, I've never once thought to kill women that
- 38:52Speaker 2: said no to.
- 38:52Speaker 1: Me, well you're not a virgin.
- 38:55Speaker 2: Well no, but I mean like if you ask him
- 38:57Speaker 2: on a day and they say no, it's not my
- 38:58Speaker 2: first thought isn't, Well then you might die?
- 39:01Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 39:02Speaker 2: I mean maybe more like, what am I doing wrong?
- 39:05Speaker 2: Let me get go to the self help section at
- 39:07Speaker 2: the Barns and Noble, let me figure it out.
- 39:10Speaker 1: Well, maybe I was also thinking, maybe that's why women
- 39:12Speaker 1: rejected him so much because I feel like maybe he
- 39:14Speaker 1: gave off some type of string murder like serial killer vibe.
- 39:19Speaker 1: So I mean, there's that all right. So we know
- 39:23Speaker 1: Brian Coburger took the plea deal to avoid the death penalty.
- 39:27Speaker 1: So what are your you know, I've read a little
- 39:29Speaker 1: bit more about this about the plea deal.
- 39:31Speaker 2: One.
- 39:32Speaker 1: He did sign a confession, but there's no motive in
- 39:35Speaker 1: the confession, so I do there is that sense of
- 39:39Speaker 1: not having closure, but.
- 39:41Speaker 2: The m I agree with that, and I don't know
- 39:44Speaker 2: what it's like. So I don't want to put myself
- 39:46Speaker 2: in their shoes and act like I know. But it's
- 39:47Speaker 2: like he's crazy. He probably couldn't get the women and
- 39:52Speaker 2: so he killed them. I mean, I think that's pretty straightforward.
- 39:56Speaker 1: So you're saying, in your mind, it's not like you
- 39:59Speaker 1: would need a motive to feel closure, because we were
- 40:01Speaker 1: talking about someone who's clearly a psychopath, and it's that
- 40:05Speaker 1: that happened to me.
- 40:06Speaker 2: I don't know if I'd ever get closure like oh
- 40:08Speaker 2: now I'm at peace, I would just maybe it would
- 40:11Speaker 2: put it to rest, like the questions, but it would
- 40:14Speaker 2: That's why I unders said when people say oh now,
- 40:15Speaker 2: they can have closure, which again no disrespect to parents
- 40:18Speaker 2: of their children, but it's like the kid's still dead.
- 40:22Speaker 2: That would be tough to move on and act like closure.
- 40:26Speaker 2: I don't know if I'd ever have closure. I might,
- 40:28Speaker 2: I might be able to move on a little bit
- 40:30Speaker 2: here and there or whatever, but I don't know if
- 40:32Speaker 2: i'd be like at peace, especially just because of a motive.
- 40:36Speaker 1: Well, I think when it to me, the way I
- 40:38Speaker 1: understand closure in this sense is that there's some form
- 40:40Speaker 1: of justice.
- 40:42Speaker 2: Yeah, that's another thing I have a problem with because
- 40:44Speaker 2: is it just okay, so he if he goes, if
- 40:46Speaker 2: he gets to death penalty, right, I know he's not,
- 40:49Speaker 2: But if he gets to death penalty, is that justice
- 40:52Speaker 2: in the sense like, because I see justice as like okay, narrative,
- 40:54Speaker 2: thing's equal. So if they yeah, well no, no, like
- 40:59Speaker 2: like you robbed me of fifty bucks and and now
- 41:02Speaker 2: you gave me my fifty bucks back, justice like we're
- 41:06Speaker 2: back to zero even. But like when you're a child,
- 41:09Speaker 2: when there's a murder, no matter as child, and they're dead,
- 41:12Speaker 2: it's just it's really hard for me to think, like
- 41:16Speaker 2: when when people say that sorry, I know I'm around me,
- 41:18Speaker 2: but when people say oh, there's justice. I just in
- 41:20Speaker 2: the back of my head, I think, no, that there's
- 41:23Speaker 2: still at a loss.
- 41:24Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand that. But if you if something happened
- 41:27Speaker 1: to your child or someone in your family, and if
- 41:31Speaker 1: there was no repercussion, like it's let's say your child's
- 41:35Speaker 1: murdered and you never find the murderer, you don't feel
- 41:37Speaker 1: like you would you would die without any closure of
- 41:40Speaker 1: knowing who it was or what happened, yeah, or any sense.
- 41:42Speaker 1: You're right when I say justice, that.
- 41:44Speaker 2: There's there's I just I guess I just I don't
- 41:47Speaker 2: refer to as justice because it's still unfortunate. That's that's
- 41:53Speaker 2: what I've always thought.
- 41:54Speaker 1: It's just my thoughts, I know, but I think I
- 41:57Speaker 1: think the idea of closure here is that he receives
- 42:00Speaker 1: punishment for his crime, as opposed to that's that's how
- 42:03Speaker 1: you put the period on.
- 42:04Speaker 2: But there's not enough.
- 42:07Speaker 1: That these parents have had to go through. And how
- 42:09Speaker 1: he finally ended is that there's some form that he
- 42:12Speaker 1: that they can maybe find some piece knowing that he's
- 42:17Speaker 1: you know, received the death penalty and that he has
- 42:19Speaker 1: to go to sleep and his cell every night with
- 42:21Speaker 1: the anticipation that someday he's going to die by lethal
- 42:25Speaker 1: injection or you know, firing squad.
- 42:29Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. That's just that's just a hard
- 42:32Speaker 2: pill for me as well. That's all.
- 42:33Speaker 1: Well, the irony is is that he clearly took a
- 42:35Speaker 1: plea deal to avoid the death penalty when he had
- 42:38Speaker 1: no problem taking the lives of four people.
- 42:40Speaker 2: Right, And and then it's like, well, why should you
- 42:42Speaker 2: grant him that that the the privilege of choosing whether
- 42:48Speaker 2: he's entitled to the death penalty or not. Right, I
- 42:52Speaker 2: would go for the death penalty. I'd be like, now,
- 42:55Speaker 2: we're going to go for it. But I understand that
- 42:59Speaker 2: the parents that think, no, we want to be done
- 43:00Speaker 2: with and just you know, go forward to our lives.
- 43:02Speaker 1: Well, that the whole that's very divided between the families
- 43:05Speaker 1: because there's four, and I do believe that I think
- 43:07Speaker 1: it's split. There's I think there's two that are happy
- 43:10Speaker 1: to just be done with it. He took the plea
- 43:11Speaker 1: deal in the one and.
- 43:12Speaker 2: I get that. I get the other way too. I
- 43:14Speaker 2: get it both with.
- 43:14Speaker 1: Right, but they're both Neither one of them are wrong
- 43:16Speaker 1: in their thinking. It's just that's their takeaway and how
- 43:18Speaker 1: they feel. Anyway, when I get the book. I'm going
- 43:21Speaker 1: to read it, so I'll let you all know. I
- 43:22Speaker 1: do think it's interesting that maybe he carried out a
- 43:25Speaker 1: manifesto that had to do with this earlier serial killer
- 43:29Speaker 1: named Elliott Rogers. So if you guys want to look
- 43:31Speaker 1: more into that, you can look that up and read
- 43:34Speaker 1: more about it. And anyway, that is the end of
- 43:37Speaker 1: the show for today. Thank you so much for listening.
- 43:39Speaker 1: If you have other cases that are of interest that
- 43:41Speaker 1: you want to DM me about, I appreciate it. You know,
- 43:43Speaker 1: I have gotten multitudes of dms from you guys asking
- 43:46Speaker 1: about us covering the case in Australia about the woman
- 43:50Speaker 1: that laced like a beef Wellington with poisonous mushrooms and
- 43:53Speaker 1: and killed some of her family members with poisonous mushrooms.
- 43:57Speaker 1: She was actually when I was in Paris last week,
- 43:59Speaker 1: she was sentence.
- 44:00Speaker 2: And she went to the to the extent of making
- 44:02Speaker 2: beef Welling.
- 44:03Speaker 1: I believe I think it was like beef Wellington or
- 44:08Speaker 1: something like that. Anyway, I know it's very interesting and
- 44:11Speaker 1: I've had tons of you s DM saying can you
- 44:13Speaker 1: guys please cover that and maybe we will. I need
- 44:16Speaker 1: to think about it a little bit more The problem
- 44:17Speaker 1: is with that is that it happened in Australia and
- 44:20Speaker 1: a lot of times when we go through these cases,
- 44:21Speaker 1: we like to talk about legal you know, just a
- 44:26Speaker 1: lot of legal things and I, you know, I don't know.
- 44:29Speaker 2: Well, we could talk about it like it had it
- 44:31Speaker 2: been in America, you know.
- 44:32Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true too. We could make comparisons. So anyway,
- 44:34Speaker 1: that's still in America.
- 44:35Speaker 2: I wouldn't be beef Wellington, No, it would not be.
- 44:37Speaker 2: It would be like a burger or something or Hamburger.
- 44:40Speaker 1: It'd be in and out. But anyway, so thank you
- 44:42Speaker 1: for that. If there's any other cases of interests that
- 44:45Speaker 1: are in the news or that you find interesting, please
- 44:47Speaker 1: let me know and thank you for listening.
- 44:49Speaker 2: Thanks
