I'm anticipating it's going to show high-potent anesthetics that are only found in a hospital setting. I was confident of that. The hardest part is proving that he injected her and that she wasn't a willing participant.

Poor Dr. Stern. I was being an annoying guy. I called her every day for almost a month straight.

So he just kept saying she was very depressed. She was drinking every night. She was on a very hard depression. Okay, well, we find out during the toxicology that she had zero alcohol.

We had interviewed several of Joel's co-workers who are actually CRNAs, same profession as Joel. And I remember asking one of Joel's supervisors, I said, do you guys have the ability to kill us if you wanted to? Without hesitation. Oh, hell yeah. Hypothetically, if you wanted to kill me, if you wanted to kill somebody, how would you do it? And he said, you know what I do?

The toxicology report also showed us was that Maria had a high amount of caffeine. Maria was a big, avid fan of coffee. I believe that he spiked her coffee and then went to town, got her unresponsive, got her in a paralytic state. And once she was under the influence of ketamine and some Versed, that's all tasteless. He went to town and he killed her with propofol.
