The prosecution's going, it's pretty goddamn obvious what happened.

She's strangled and beaten, and there's no one else on the goddamn farm.

And the stairs can't do it.

The defense attorney's like, it's an accident.

That's what they say.

They say, well, why was he trying to transfer land to his son a few days before?

And they go, who doesn't want their son to inherit their land?

That's literally what the defense said.

Yeah.

So they they talk about the life insurance signatures and they say they're probably David's, by the way, and not Tanya.

She probably didn't even know this was on her.

It's pretty goddamn – this is a tough trial.

They said – the prosecutor said divorce for him was not an option.

That meant his wife would get at least half the farm and he wasn't going to tolerate that.

A guy that had so much control that he made his wife sign for the fudge brownies she took from the home a week before.

He's not going to let her have an acre of that place.
