Well, it is a long process.

But if you do ask many of the investigators, they will tell you the day of...

Something did not feel right about this case right from the start.

And I think a couple of tip-offs were previous calls to 911 before the official call with Brendan saying he'd shot someone.

There were quick hang-ups.

You hear Joe Ryan.

It is a convoluted story no matter which side is telling it.

But the prosecution is saying this.

that Brendan Banfield wanted rid of his wife.

He and the au pair months earlier had struck up a love affair.

And he asked her to help him fake an account in his wife's name on a fetish website, soliciting men to come to the house and basically...

An act of rape fantasy, a violent rape fantasy, bring knives, all this.

And they finally found Joseph Ryan.

Now, again, in this scenario, Joseph Ryan is on this website willingly, but he thinks he's speaking to Christine Banfield.

The prosecution is saying, no, no, no.

He's being catfished.

He's being lured by Brendan Banfield.

Brendan and his au pair set up this fake account in one of the victims' names and lured the other victim?

Or do you believe that Christine, the victim herself, entered into this dangerous pact with this stranger and it went awry and it ended in her death, her murder, by the hand of Joseph Bryan, who was then killed by her husband, who came in as the hero?

Those are the two versions that you're hearing here.
