    The detective may not be well spoken but he was smart enough to have Tammy exhumed, I certainly thank him for that.
  • Not a single emotion from Chad looking @ his dead partner for over 26 years and the mother of his children .Poor Tammy looks like she was nothing to her husband and her kids .So sad .
  • @jackibrown5215
    He’s rude to the witness. If Chad hadn’t killed all these people he wouldn’t be in jail. Blame Chad
  • @kimberlied1631
    All the things tammy was feeling the last few months was likely from being poisoned by Chad. She had all these sudden onsets of siezures and feeling out of it, being weak. Chad was screwing up whatever poison they killed Alex and her first ex with. 100% would put money on it and he finally strangled her. Her children should be ashamed of themselves.
  • @brendarock9702
    Defense is already grasping at straws, twisting stories......bye bye Chad.
  • @JL-zn7me
    My God. Knowing what we know and seeing Tammy in her casket, made me feel sad and sick. The evil monster stared at the picture with zero emotion- because he has no soul. Her children even turned their backs on her, when choosing to stand up for the monster! I don’t trust those children!
  • @lilirishgrl
    Emotionless as Chad views the dead body of his wife. Odd indeed
  • @rxsewatxr642
    The fact that Chad said Tammy was going to die soon and then she dies and everyone around them keeps dying is reason enough to exhume Tammy. She was just shot at it wasn’t just a random person who dies of natural causes.
  • @dawnerwin2097
    WHY IS HE YELLING AT THIS WITNESS. WHY IS THE JUDGE LETTING THIS HAPPEN. RIDICULOUS
  • @bonniehitchcock
    The officer is being harassed by Prior. He's obviously not well -spoken and Prior is taking advantage of him.
  • @margie3389
    How did Tammy fall out of bed, Chad said then she was stiff and cold, how did she manage to move if she was already dead and had been for hours.
  • @mbowman4436
    Prior yelling at the witness about “digging up Tamara” his client put her there!
  • @user-uq6bz1ri8j
    25:30 No reaction at all of a husband seeing his deceased wife who bore his five children. Even if her death were natural, there should be some expression. I hope his family sees what we are all seeing.
  • @deniselords6237
    I am going to give Lt Powell a pass here. These men have been to hell and back and have their lives turned upside down for the past 4 years and have seen things that they can never EVER unsee. It is childish of us to mock his testimony. These are not NEW YORk policemen. I don’t think you would mind Lt Powell pulling your injured child in the dead of winter from a horrific car accident and save his life with CPR and certainly you would not care one digit how he spoke. Let’s be kind.
  • @freddog4490
    I know Prior the prick is supposed to defend his client the best he can BUT the way he spoke to the witness about exhuming Tammy was disgusting, You decided to DIG TAMMY UP without reading her family history !!!!!!. Her father had heart disease !!!! What has that got to do with TAMMY’S death ?????. They wouldn’t have needed to exhume her IF there had been no suspicious circumstances. This man is disgusting. 🤬🤬🤬
  • Chad may not have been the mastermind but he was definitely involved with all of these deaths!
  • @terrimoore541
    He didn't mention that Tami was vomiting because that's hearsay. That's just what the person who killed her said.
  • @crystalship9900
    Prior at every single turn is only reinforcing the prosecutor's case. Every nasty dirty deed by his client is being spoken about over and over and over again.
