Defense Closing Arguments | WI v. Jessy Kurczewski | Eye Drops Murder Trial

[@CourtTV]

Catch up on the FACTS here: www.courttv.com/tag/Jessy-Kurczewski/?

[@lightfountain]

If defense is counting on lies helping her lying client..might as well skip this... TRUTH IS VERY EVIDENT HERE.. and the prosecutor laid it out very clearly..

[@melyblazegardens1883]

Agreed 💯

[@truthhurts2879]

Just watched prosecution closing arg and boy oh boy oh boy, talk about a damning slam dunk.

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

I’m going 😂 now sounds like reasonable doubt here but they always do in closing

[@Neyagrl]

The prosecution's closing was delivered much more effectively than the defense's. This defense attorney stumbled over her words 15+ times during close, and it makes her seem less confident in what she is saying. The energy and enthusiasm is a bit low, as well. It feels like the defense attorney should have practiced her closing a few more times. If she watched this video back, she'd be able to see what a big difference these minor errors make.

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

I agree and thinking man I hope jury right , sounds shaky

[@mertr8509]

Lmao...she was reading from sticky notes 😅

[@pennyakapak221]

Guilty on all 3 counts

[@tangajTANG]

The interrogator stated it right the first time. The deceased had more credit than she had cash, the money was running out, so her not being around was a motive.

[@adamv4951]

Yeah because if she's dead, she can't pay her debts. They're usually written off.

[@Channel66678]

Even if she was innocent, this defense attorney would get you locked up for life she's so crap. Jessy is guilty IMO.

[@aoifeofarrell5893]

Omg she hasn't a clue ŵhats she's doing

[@cortneyrens]

Agreed, so disorganized and not believable, no credibility to them or especially their “witnesses” and so called Experts like rambling braggy toxicologist Spiller. I was shocked to hear the female defense lawyer won an award from special victims unit for having successfully defended 7 ppl charged with sexual assaults, I was also shocked that there is an award for such a thing.

[@F.A.Q835]

She has been drinking

[@suzannaj3834]

She can’t form a sentence and i couldn’t figure it out until the comment above.. ⬆️ IMO she’s impaired on drugs or alcohol.

[@189vans]

​@F.A.Q835 that's a bold assertion. I do believe it's a possibility that she was impaired, but it could be a combo of nervousness, feelings of defeat and/or futility, etc

[@jayleigh_bee]

Come on be guilty, as she IS guilty AF!

[@bodil2382]

When defense has to lie, mislead and victimblame this bad, its even more obvious. Guilty on all 3. counts.

[@margaretlumley1648]

I blame the defence!

[@Irishbean658]

Guilty on all three counts !

[@tracey278]

Blame the victim blame the police blame everyone else but the person who stole impersonated and also looked up house hold poisons ! If it looks like a duck quacks like a duck it is a duck !!!

[@cortneyrens]

Exactly just as their “expert” no-credibility-whatsoever toxicologist said, among other great quotes like “you can’t die from ibuprofen no matter what it’s not a bad boyz med” and “those kids were just fine…. Yes they stopped breathing and in a ventilator but just poke ‘em with a stick once in a while “🤦‍♀️

[@grneys45]

If jessy was innocent she wouldnt have come up so many different stories

[@carolerice9596]

Guilty, Jessie took all her money than killed her so she would not get caught.

[@tiffanybooth9979]

I think she killed her because she finally did get caught.

[@jeffbattle9599]

This case was a no win situation. The defendant was guilty as sin. Sorry for the taxpayers.

[@carleyerichsen864]

What a jerk to try to disgrace the integrity of Lynn. How horrible to say that it was drug induced suicide

[@catherinetsitlakidis9151]

Do not use this defense attorney ever!

[@carom5548]

Guilty guilty guilty! Talking about the doctor that has books or whatever and who is supposedly more experienced, does not mean anything! Even Ellen Degenres has books written and always talked about “be kind to one another” yet she was always mean to her staff the truth eventually came out. Defence will obviously do everything they can to get a lesser penalty, but everything points out and SHOWS that Jessy IS GUILTY! All her moves, all her calls pretending to be Lynn.

[@margaretlumley1648]

Exactly. So called 'experts' frequently have no clue about things in the real world

[@jeanmax236]

What has Ellen have to do with it?

[@carom5548]

Who said she had anything to do with it? Read the comment again and perhaps you can find your answer there.

[@WoeBringer1195]

This defense team was so bad 😂.

[@lynnparrish1335]

The jury should as easily find her guilty as the Florida jury did in the case of Charlie Adelson. I sympathize with defense attorneys who must attempt to do their best with such obviously guilty clients.

[@goll58]

Although, I do agree CA case, he is guilty. However, there almost was not beyond a reasonable doubt regarding a few factors in that case. For example, there's just no way Sigfrado did not know he was doing this for one of Charlie's family. Also, he tried to run him off the road. Why would he essentially murder someone for him? That's not how the streets work. They would have 100% robbed him. Even if none of that is true, what would charlie have to gain from plotting to kill and pay to go through with this? I guess it's plausible, but it just doesn't make sense. Also, how did he not tell his own sister he was planning and ultimately went through with it. Just all seems all over the place.

[@cyntar556]

She's the worst defense of I've seen..she actually helped the prosecutors case with her confused ramblings and her client knows it..RIP JEN 😢😢😢

[@-vi2ys557]

Jessy took advantage of Lynn. Money is running out & Lynn needed to get rid of her because there was nothing left Jessy could gain from Lynn…

[@catherinetsitlakidis9151]

I believe that also the cash was finished and the credit cards were maxed out all that was left was the “stuff” condo ,jeep,jewelry and contents of home! Rest in peace Ms. Lynn.

[@MatheyFiles]

Defense can barely string 2 sentences together, is she high or just extremely bad. She was bad during trial but this is insanely bad. It’s embarrassing, she’s disjointed, making up lies and speaking like she has some mental impairment.

[@suzannaj3834]

All the above. She’s a bad, unprepared-impaired defense attorney.

[@sandraewels1753]

This defence is absolutely shocking. A disgrace that this woman can call herself an attorney. How on earth????😮.

[@tamimoncrief2264]

Defense , lies. Guilty

[@HillaryBTV]

*Crazy how the defense argues ‘suicide’ and then when she talks about Jessy and Lynn at the bank, says that Lynn was “in a good mental state.” 🤦‍♀️ So much guilt in general here!*

[@Carebearstare....]

💯

[@lewchootrain]

Must be really tough for Lynne’s family who have to hear the crap about the defense painting their family member as a druggie/alcoholic vs. this woman poisoning her

[@diannefurey7990]

So far, defense out of the gate asking the jury to disregard the expert ME cause of death as homicide and believe her clients staged "suicide" scene. Jessy is an accomplished con artist. Absolutely guilty all 3 counts.

[@kriztellemoore2199]

This public defender knew this lady was going to jail 😂

[@ronniebreeze4814]

One of the worse defense attorneys I’ve ever seen

[@tracey278]

Guilty 100%

[@truthhurts2879]

Pathetically weak defense, can't be easy to defend an individual which you know unequivocally is guilty, but still, this was still a poor presentation, GUIITY ON ALL 3 COUNTS.

[@_Sorry_Not_Sorry]

She is a terrible public speaker, she sounds flustered and confused and she's the defence?!? Not that anything she could say would make any difference 😝

[@MRK0405]

All this defense tactic did was make it look even more like a gambling addict taking advantage of, and draining the account of a woman who was probably partially disabled, battling pain/pill/alcohol problems. This woman may have had years of pill problems but NEVER money or spending problems

[@juliesimonson9181]

She’s a TERRIBLE LAWYER ‼️ Doesn’t ( because she can’t ) defend ALL THE MONEY STOLEN 😡 Or ALL HER LIES ‼️

[@-vi2ys557]

The defense lawyer is trying to convince herself Jessey is innocent. So Jessey just happened to steal from Lynn before & after Lynn committed suicide? Jessey is a sociopath.

[@-vi2ys557]

What is the excuse for Jessy telling her boyfriend that Lynn was in a coma for 5 months again?!?!

[@darcylee8497]

The defence is grasping at straws. She has no clue what she’s doing and she knows her client is guilty

[@motocatz87]

Larry H. Parker would've done better and he's not even a criminal defense attorney, but he'll fight for you. This lady went into the ring with her gloves over her face.

[@roytetwart]

What a total difference between the defence and prosecution attorneys! The prosecution had all her points in a large A4-type folder, the pages she turned as she made each submission. The defence seemed totally disorganised and had her notes on numerous scraps of yellow paper which, as she went on, she had difficulty placing in some sequence on the lectern in front of her. She also sounded like she was trying to remember her words, with long pauses. All in all, if I was the defendant, I would begin kissing my ass goodbye!

[@tangajTANG]

If she didn't take control of the deceased money, I may feel differently.

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

For sure

[@kahnlives]

Are you mental!

[@GoatTypeSH]

The defense fumbled smh. Just admit fraud and assisting in Lyns demise but DENY murder. Ridiculous

[@kathrynmaguiree]

one of the weakest closing arguments i’ve ever seen. the prosecution delivered with way more factual evidence and information and was able to actually articulate what they were saying. she’s as guilty as they come

[@Flanconquesito]

The amount of blinking this girl does alone is a dead sign she’s guilty af 🤣🤣

[@michellefrost85]

This was not a good defense

[@lynnparrish1335]

Defense didn’t have much to work with.

[@katieguest7984]

The defence attorney is the worst ever.

[@brock.jordan]

[@Jongraphs8600]

[@suelawson7273]

Accept for valoo in return for valoo

[@Anglegirl713]

This lawyer was not people-friendly, I think she caused this case to fail with her arrogance and know-it-all persona. Now she is re-litigating the case instead of a closing argument. The judge should have censured her, to say the least. The witnesses did not like her and, even her own witnesses she was so arrogant she did not address the jury and went straight into her notes... Instead of thanking the Jury and trying to appease them..terrible litigation and terrible disposition..Her client should have gotten a better lawyer...one was too arrogant and the other one looked lost most of the time or would start to argue with the witnesses... F in representation B in litigation strategy I rest my case!

[@DeSilva02]

Jury got it right - she is soooo guilty. This lawyer, wow she’s so bad.

[@suelawson7273]

The defence clearly trained at the Amber Heard school of law

[@cyntar556]

Omg !!!!! This defense attorney was so delusional that she actually believes herself 😮😮😮😮

[@jjsmama401]

Jessie’s mom was involved too, it seems. I could point out the obvious about how stupid Jessie was, but I think we already know that.

[@suzannaj3834]

Agree

[@jodifocht5680]

The defense puts me to sleep 😴

[@suzannaj3834]

Rest. Lol. 😅

[@kimwexlersponytail]

Lynn's life was cruelly taken by a money hungry liar - pretended to care while emptying her bank account RIP Lynn Rot in Hell Jessy

[@yolandaredic7177]

Actually the defense attorney did very well. She sure did put doubt about being murder verses suicide. I think the jury had already decided she was guilty. Because Jessy herself kept changing her story. She knew the police was looking at her as the murderer. She should have kept her mouth shut until she had obtained a lawyer. Never talk to anyone unless you have a lawyer. A theft she is but a murderer i don't know.

[@jodyparkman7440]

This Defense Attorney has done nothing but be argumentative with the JD and the prosecutors, then she kept saying on the record over and over again how “ it’s unfair” to her clients case that this that and the other wether it was calling witnesses, or to let in testimony, or exhibits! So.. it’s no wonder why Jessy thinks the trial was unfair! It was as fair as the day was long!

[@Quantum-Quote]

She must have used eye drops before this closing...😂 Trash. Stumbling over her words, timeline confused, and argumentative tone. Seen more cohesive school presentations before. Regardless of guilt the younger prosecution was way more prepared in closing. Like Kobe vs a 1st grader. Sad to see.

[@OneLaw214]

The Defense lawyer should have to pay the client for her representation.

[@-vi2ys557]

I’m 42 and made the decision to be DNR & DNI, this does not mean I’m suicidal. Pathetic.

[@-vi2ys557]

Shame on the defense for painting Lynn as a disabled drug seeking alcoholic after Jessey stole from Lynn while she was alive and even after Lynn was murdered.

[@-vi2ys557]

Right?! Let me see, Lynn decided to pay for Jessy’s mom’s apartment. And Lynn made all those calls from Jessy’s phone, especially when she was in the hospital?? And Lynn sounded exactly like Jessy when the call was recorded at the bank. Jessy never took advantage of Lynn’s situation correct?! This defense lawyer is so weak.

[@mirkawessels5978]

Defense based in speculation. Woman is difficult to listen to.

[@Donaleigh222]

Sounds like reasonable doubt to me. Great closing..

[@Mwabacn]

This closing argument is embarrassing…sit down.

[@doreeneclose6295]

I’m just glad I’m not deciding. I know she’s a thief, but the woman was very sick and very depressed, taking a lot of dangerous drugs in combinations that can be deadly. She could have very well been suicidal. How sad! For me, the strongest evidence for murder is the lie to her boyfriend about being poisoned, with the exact same drug, before the death of Lynn. That is very hard to reconcile as coincidence.

[@stephenbanks5952]

I don't like how the defence explains things away too easily. I don't trust them. The right verdict was reached.

[@tommeredith7462]

My Gosh, within only 5 minutes of listening to the Defense Attorney on behalf of the defendant one can tell she’s a gifted Bull-Shitter, just like her Client. I’m sure during the selection of finding a defense Lawyer this attorney voiced her skill set. Once this lawyer said If I can’t Dazzle the Jury with Brilliance I can Baffle them with BS. Upon hearing this profound statement this Defendant said “Your Hired”. Ching ching $$,,,, the attorney was thinking.

[@beth3099]

4:35 about sums up this defense (the guy in the background can't contain himself)

[@-vi2ys557]

Jessy has no credibility. Liar, liar, pants on fire!

[@repentANDobey]

absolutely disgusting. the defendant and lawyer!

[@AmandaMoss-ic6lv]

Beyond a reasonable doubt. That would be hard to convict There is doubt here definately

[@tangajTANG]

The defendant appears to be a controlling BEAST. Imo

Agreed, a manipulative sociopathic controlling beast at that based on the overwhelming evidence

[@laila-holm]

I hear the defence .. We hear her voice (even dry in her mouth = tell she's not comfetable at all) = She know her client is a cruel , mean, evil thief and murderer. - As a defence lawyerr she realy suck. At this trial im okey with it, but if I ??? about gulty or not, = not okey at all Good to know and hear/see this case have this Judge who both been defence and prosecute- lawyer, - a Judge I've seen in some cases, and realy have respeckt for and trust rule this case fare.

[@BOARDMAN16456]

IM 100% SURE THAT THE MURDER CONVICTION WILL BE OVERTUNED ON APPEAL AS LONG AS THERE ARE GOOD LAYERS ON IT,, THIS PROSECUTION SERVICE ARE CORRUPT, AND ITS SHOCKING THAT THEY CAN DO THAT,, ALSORTS WHERE NEVER DONE IN THIS CASE,,

[@LisaD007]

The defense did the best they could with very little evidence to support their argument that Lynn killed herself. That’s because there was literally zero evidence to support this assertion.

[@-vi2ys557]

Guilty.

[@dsn385]

[@spitfirestake54]

The Defense Attorney needs water. Her mouth is dry

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

Idk sounds like some reasonable doubt, why didn’t they print the eye drop bottle, I guess she can say she helped put them in but if no prints it would exonerate her

[@ElizabethGrindon]

That's an excellent point. I think since they initially thought it was a suicide by drug overdose they didn't take pics of the bedside items. But another person pointed out that the eye drop bottle looked like Dry Eyes which is basically a saline solution that doesn't contain the poison that is in other eye drops. Even the Defense acknowledged that.

[@suzannaj3834]

@@ElizabethGrindonexactly! Ty! That pic was of a bottle of saline solution. No poisonous ingredients!☠️

[@HankTex.]

She is guilty 100%

[@doreeneclose6295]

It’s disturbing how cruel people can be on these streams, especially against attorneys that do their best with what they have. It’s scary to imagine that we are teaching AI about humanity through our words. AI may just decide some day that humanity isn’t worth keeping. Be nice folks, the jury will decide the fate of this woman.

[@seriously6649]

Let me just say I haven’t watched the trial, only closing arguments. I would convict based only on those. The defense attorney’s closing was so scattershot. I am left feeling she is throwing up singular facts to see what sticks. By contrast the prosecutor wove a comprehensive and coherent narrative. Just sayin’.

[@Elizabeth-1970]

I asked the same question and received a smart a** response. I was saying in general I’ve never heard of a death from eye drops. I wasn’t asking the idiot please explain how someone could suffer from ingesting eye drops. I’m watching the defense closing argument for the first time and she is pathetic. She needs to retire.

[@Elizabeth-1970]

Who says, as in a defense attorney, “there were a lot of pills in her belly.” How about there were alot of pills in her stomach?

[@repentANDobey]

the reason it looked staged a year later, Mrs. Lawyer, is because after they got tests and tests and tests and autopsy, and everything else and no pills in extreme if at all any levels other than visine! Yet the scene said there was pills everywhere, liquor bottles filling the garbage, and all this crap doesn't add up, lady! She keeps calling them eyedrops but not all eye drops have the drug that killed this beautiful woman! She's confusing the jury or trying to but we all know what happened! Bye Bye, Jessy!

[@kimapps8169]

[@lukehorning3404]

Wow they do a very good job like the states home run and I think jury won’t need to take to long seeing the truth and it’s got to be hard to fight for a killer

[@Chez276]

The defense fought hard for their client and did their job but she is guilty of the theft for sure the evidence is damning. I'm not 100% convinced of the murder tho. She does need to be removed from society tho she's an absolute danger to others.

[@gillmiller3702]

They were victim blaiming through the trial.

[@margaretlumley1648]

​@gillmiller3702 yes, it was despicable

[@ElizabethGrindon]

I'm at the same spot. Guilty on the theft for sure. Not convinced about the murder. She may very well be guilty but I do have reasonable doubt, I think.

[@truthhurts2879]

Reasonable doubt by what standard? There was no one else in the victims life but this con artist. And on the day of her damn death the conniver is buying large screen TVs & apple watches ffs. And did you miss the part where she admits in the interrogation giving the victim eye drops in deadly amounts lol? Or the extensive search history on poisoning? Please don't ever accept Jury duty. 😅

[@ElizabethGrindon]

@@truthhurts2879 I somehow missed that evidence of her doing searches on poisoning. That really shifts my thinking.

This is a horrendous closing argument for the defense

[@jodifocht5680]

One person who sounded like he was reading from a script saw visine 🙄

[@cortneyrens]

Yep, he has a VIVID photographic memory of the event no one could ever forget: Looking into a loose acquaintances garbage can….. my god lol. Also defenses picture of the eye gtt bottle shown early in closing is NOT Visine, it looks like dry eyes brand which is basically just saline. And another witness said she used dry eyes brand, which doesn’t have the THZ in it

[@ElizabethGrindon]

@@cortneyrens Yes, even the Defense acknowledged that the bottle by the bedside did not contain THZ. She kind of slipped it in there - said "albeit, did not contain THZ."

[@AbuGrave365]

I believe I hear. The lady was addicted to prescription drugs. And I’m sure Jessy was too. In an addict myself I no people just like this they have a negative symbiotic relationship. Who knows what was really going on. But I believe Jessy. When they want to push a narrative they push it and the public believes it.

[@Mugwump7]

Given her actions were indefensible - not sure what on earth they could possibly say in her defense that wouldn’t be absurd… However, their delivery of this hogwash and their work in general was just pathetic and annoying. No teeth, just bs.
