As investigators delved deeper into the case, they uncovered a trail of evidence that would ultimately lead them to Amy’s killer, transforming a seemingly idyllic rural life into the center of a gripping true crime narrative.

His son could have. And he didn't say that
It appears based on this video that there wasnt any evidence presented that actually proved he did it beyond any reasonable doubt and that this conviction was based partly or almost entirely on assumptions. That isnt how trials are supposed to work the evidence should show indisputably that he did it.
This is a corn rake. Todd calls it a corn "fork" for dramatics.
The female lawyer sounds like she is reading a story. Not sure how anyone could take her serious
She hadn't consulted with a lawyer or had paperwork or told anybody she was leaving him that's a lie
When you’re a jealous psycho and your wife keeps cheating on you…your chances of getting away with a corn-rake murder is all of zero percent. Enjoy life behind bars.
They bleep out the Audio so I have no clue if this guy is guilty
If Amy climbed up on something to get the carrier, as I understand she did, why couldn't she have fallen on the corn rake? More puncture marks? It moved before it impaled. Due to my line of work I've seen a lot of farm and industrial accidents, stranger things have happened. I don't understand why the foot prints in the snow weren't documented, if Todd went to the shed after Amy did, there should have been one more set coming and going than he could account for. In fact were those foot prints ever photographed and compared to their boots? I also heard "she's cold" not you cheating…you know. Well, I wasn't on the jury, so what I think is not important, but a few things made me question what could have happened.
I don't know if he did it but I don't think there was enough evidence to prove he DID do it. I had some health issues once and stumbled all over the place. She could have easily fell against it, fell forward a bit and fell back again hard. I know it's a stretch but as much of a stretch as hearing "cheating hoe". I watched the trial and it just wasn't proven to me. I live in a farming community so i know stranger accidents have happened.
I believe there was reasonable doubt, though I wasn’t there and didn’t get the chance to really listen to the audio…I know I didn’t hear a damn thing on the YouTube video
She effed around and found out!
Lewl
The prosecutor proved beyond a shadow of doubt that you are guilty.
Hands down one of the worst liars I have ever seen! His face tells on him! 🚮
So the wife was a serial adulterer, and likely threatened to take everything he had built over the years. Did she deserve to die? Well no, not in OUR culture. Sure, the murderer was a monster, but let's not pretend the adultress/homewrecker was a saint.
This case has Alex Murdaugh vibes all over it.
nice of you guys to beep out the crucial moment when he supposedly whispers something on the 911 call. thanks for that.
Lawyers are terrible. He there is so much more to the story. Very very sad.
I’m nothing against Amy. I’m sad. She lost her life, but she did cheat on her husband, so the fact that he didn’t trust her is understandable. You can’t blame the man for that. They are trying to paint him as a bad guy because he took her back after she cheated on him and she lied to him all the time. and from what I learned, Tristan was saying his dad did not do it but once he lived with the grandparents for a while, he changed his mind. They even played his first interrogation and he flat out said his dad didn’t do it.
I watched this trial and I don’t think the husband did it. Besides, his lawyers were terrible. the prosecuting team twisted a lot of evidence very sad case
I remeber this case when it happened and I don't think Todd did it. I believe the person she was having an affair with, worked at the farm and was present that morning. He had access to the office and was around the barn where she was eventually located.
Todd had a jampacked schedule and had been running about the property with witnesses. There was only one very short window he wasn't with someone and it would have been tough for him to get where he was to where his wife was meeting her lover and get back.
She was found where she'd meet her lover in a tiny little part of a building.
She had no plans of leaving her husband and children. I think it was her lover.

I’m sorry but I couldn’t make out anything.

Woah! He certainly had trouble spitting that out.
Narcissistic, psychopathological sociopathic, control freak.
This women cheated on her husband twice !
Prosecuted lied when she said Amy was young and beautiful
Usual suspects must be in their culture
I grew up on a farm and an accident when you are sick sounds palpable.
They are listed as "accident farm death".
I broke my ankle in two different places by pulling myself up the first time and not having the strength fell again and broke it above the first break by falling again.
Side note – is it really recommended to attempt CPR while the person has a gaping chest wound? 😬 Wouldn't that do MORE damage??
I still think he is innocent
Definitely control freak.
this is so iowa
Lost the farm anyway 🤯
Google & Walmart, solving cases 7 days a week.
I love the criminals who expect the jury to believe that someone broke into their homes, used the computer to search a couple of things and then quietly left the house. Geniuses.
Ive watched a million crime videos and my gut says he’s innocent. I think about this case all the time. So many elements of doubt with her being unwell and dizzy.
I think the guy she was having an affair with did it. One day his son will say he wasn’t actually watching football with him. He was terrified amy would tell his wife.
I remember this case. The man wanted us to believe his wife fell on a corn rake- twice. And he had this trailer park fan club. It was a wild ride.
Me: That poor woman!
Also me: Oh, she was a cheater?
The woman was adultery. It's a sin.
Too bad people don't get to dictate how people react when faced with a cheating spouse. Cheating has consequences…When you choose to engage in something like this…beware. No excuse for murder, but we don't get to tell people how to deal with it.
