It wasn't the day the judge hoped for in the Brendan Banfield double murder trial.  In anticipation of the winter storm, the judge pushed attorney to wrap testimony by Friday (yesterday), but they didn't even get close.  However, the defense began scoring some major points, poking significant holes in the prosecution’s catfishing theory, central to their case.  But all eyes are on the defendant himself, Brendan Banfield, who is expected to take the stand next week as the final witness for the defense.  For the jury, it may ultimately come down to who they believe:  the au pair or Brendan Banfield.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What a helluva day in court! The defense attorney for accused double murderer Brendan Banfield scored major points today, calling two forensic digital experts with the Fairfax Police Department up to the stand who refuted the state’s catfishing theory.

Later this afternoon, we are also expecting the biggest bombshell of this trial: Brendan Banfield will testify in his own defense.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You've probably seen the promos on Netflix:  superstar climber Alex Honnold will attempt to climb one of the tallest buildings in the world TONIGHT.  Live.  No ropes.  Netflix will air it on a 10-second delay, but that doesn't fully cover all of safety and ethical concerns for what Honnold is doing.  Honnold -- considered one of the best climbers in the world -- shot to fame with the Oscar-winning documentary "Free Solo," which documented his no-ropes climb up Yosemite's Dawn Wall.  He's the only person to ever free solo the Dawn Wall, considered the holy grail of climbing.

The defense attorney for Brendon Banfield made some significant headway this afternoon,  questioning if investigators came up with their catfishing theory first, and then tried to make the evidence fit later.  Banfield is charged with murdering his wife, and a stranger they say he catfished to his home to frame for her murder, along side his au pair and mistress. Also coming out in court today, it may have been Brendan Banfield’s 4 year old daughter who led investigators to their  theory.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After 7 hours of deliberating, a Texas jury finds former Uvalde police officer Adrian Gonzales not guilty of 29 counts of child endangerment.  It was an emotional 2 weeks of testimony,  many victims’ families traveling hundreds of miles, looking for justice after officers waited 77 minutes to confront the gunman who killed 19 students and 2 teachers at Robb Elementary School nearly 4 years ago.   Officer Gonzales arrived before the gunman entered the school and waited for backup as hundreds of shots rang out inside the school.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Criminal defense attorney Alison Triessl has been closely following the Brendan Banfield BDSM trial for the past two weeks. Triessl relies on her 3 decades of trial experience to talk about the prosecution’s case and what the defense needs to do to overcome the damning testimony of the au pair. If the jury believes her testimony, Triessl believes it will be an impossible road for the defense, but they have a potential ace up their sleeve, and it involves a Fairfax County police detective.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Amy and T.J. get you updated on one of the most salacious murder trials in recent history. A former IRS agent, Brendan Banfield is fighting for his freedom, charged with a double homicide for the murders of his wife, Christine and a stranger prosecutors say Banfield, along with the help of his au pair turned lover, lured to his home to set up for his wife’s death. The prosecution’s case against Banfield rests primarily on the testimony of the au pair, Juliana Peres Magalhães, who told jurors about their plan to “get rid of” Christine and pin the murder on Joseph Ryan, a man who believed he was coming to the Banfield home to participate in a BDSM sexual fantasy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
