They first talk about that 911 call as well as the video that came from the responding officer's body cam.
And they said it didn't seem like Corey was trying very hard.
to resuscitate him.
Now, you can contrast that with these text messages that Corey exchanged with a friend where Corey said that she was screaming, she was beating on Eric's chest, trying to get him to come back to life.
They were also looking on the body cam footage of the responding officers to see how Corey was acting in those moments.
And Corey is hiding her face a couple of times behind her hands.
Like, you don't see tears.
Laura, the juror said, it's difficult to judge how someone grieves or how somebody acts in a traumatic situation.
But again, what was most impactful to Laura
was the time that it took for Corey apparently to start the CPR.
So the prosecution in its closing arguments actually had a stopwatch to show that it was approximately six minutes between when the 911 operator told Corey to start and when it appears that Corey on the other side of that call actually says she started.
And the most convincing piece of that evidence came from the digital download expert
who was able to analyze the phone data and determined that Corey did not put her phone on speakerphone, that she was still holding it up to her ear when she said she was doing CPR, which again, should be done with both hands, suggesting she wasn't actually doing it or she was doing it one-handed, so not really giving it the full effort.
Then beyond that, Corey's money trouble really was the biggest motivating factor that they saw.
That was the main motive.
that convinced them that Corey was responsible for Eric's murder.
And again, this is the first time that we're hearing from these three boys, the first time that they're expressing their feelings publicly.
I want to play a few portions from that court hearing.
Now, the first statement was written by the youngest of the boys, Weston.
