19:30 He should be in prison for being an irresponsible gun owner
The usual suspect!!! Smh! rIP to the victim 🙏🏾🕊️💐🌹
I wonder if Jesse Weber knows what a sleeze he is. Hold your thoughts about the murdered girl, I gotta do a live read and sell some garbage product. True dirtbag.
These people always threaten to end their own lives but when it comes down to it they always end someone else’s instead.
An 18 year old with a 16 year old isnt a big deal. That could be just one grade apart. That could just be a 13 month gap
Did the audience really gasp like they couldn’t believe he was guilty? Lmao
Took a life for no reason. Why can’t her father get 5 minutes in a room? This is an uncivilized society.
Lawyers should train mma so that office work doesnt separate them from real life scenarios, or maybe spend a few outings with crime investigators for their training.
I remember this case it was and is so heartbreaking. I’m so glad his former friends got him to fess up on record & got some justice for Emma.
RIP Emma 🕊️
Usual suspects as always but most get away and TV doesn’t show it
I bet he was spoiled as a kid and was never told no and was used to getting what he wanted
Women need to learn to be loyal. Too many cheaters nowadays. Don't feel bad for her at all
He knew he couldn't get another girl
The amount of victim blaming that the defense attorney is doing is absolutely disgusting.
I hate the promoting sessions on here 😒
This is whah would happen between Maddie and Nate from euphoria in real life.
Love this show….loathe the sponsor pushes. So annoying. I pay for no ads on this app😡
NO DEATH SENTENCE? what?
How the momma ain’t hear no gunshots
1:00 in…College football player and his 16 year old girlfriend…
Typical suspect 👹⬜👹
Where did he even get a gun. Ridiculous how easy it is in America
If someone doesn’t want me around. Guess what, I don’t want to change their minds. I’m going to leave and live my life.
This is horrifying. She went to bed perfectly fine and never woke up. Scary stuff.
Always more fish in the sea fellas , dont throw your life away for a female
Wait… a COLLEGE football player & 16 Y/O HIGH SCHOOL cheerleader GF???? Wtaf is happening in this world.
I don't understand why that neighborhood because I used to live there why did they zone every kid to go to Central instead of Powell
Any woman dating a football player isn't smart.
Just because the guy plays a game, you find him attractive.
She's so cute.
What a jerk.
May he remain in prison for the rest of his life 😎
Lo—ser
They were close & dated for yrs. He knew where her bed was located in her room. He knew he was shooting where he thought she would be.
Law & Crime did a lousy job explaining the facts of this case. Wherever I saw it before – 48 Hours? – explained it much better. So much so that I actually wasn't convinced at all that this guy's intent was to kill her. No one is defending him overall – he is indefensible – but did he intend to kill her? I'm not certain about that.
