He said there was no evidence that he even stabbed Christine.

Look, the jury didn't buy it during the trial and the judge didn't buy it at sentencing.

And just a reminder that in addition to two counts of aggravated murder, Brendan Banfield was also found guilty of one count of use of a firearm and one count of child endangerment.

She was.

It's disturbing that this happened with a four-year-old child inside of that Virginia home where her mother was being set up and ultimately murdered.

That testimony at trial was very much about the evidence, troubles in the marriage, but not a lot of detail about who Christine and Joe were as people.

It was especially emotional when Danielle would reflect on their time as children and all of these memories that they shared together as little kids all the way up until adults.

Christine's obsession with the Backstreet Boys, watching Full House on TV, having a crush on Brad Pitt in Legends of the Fall.

But Danielle really assured the court that her and her family would make sure that this child would hear stories about her mom and hear them with light and joy and love.

And she was emotional.

She really was when talking about how hard it was to see her son in the public eye initially being accused of killing Christine.
