Yes!! He should find someone who loves him for who he is, not what they can get from him, or for their own self image and security. This woman is a leach to everyone she meets, a sapper of the human soul. She's only interested what's good and beneficial to herself. No ability to feel compassion and empathy, yet deathly afraid of feeling left alone. She believes that she should be coddled and spoiled, taken care of, and shouldn't have to inconvenience herself in anything or with anyone. Entitlement in its most extreme form. She's always a victim in her own mind, because she only perceives others faults and shortcomings, especially towards her, and never respects or appreciates their attributes or qualities. She views the entire world through a lens of self victimization. When she doesn't get what she wants, it's because it's unfair, and a sign of disrespect. She's incapable of feeling love.

This was so powerful. A pivotal moment for the entire case. He’s very precise in describing exactly what happened. I really loved his response to the reporters at the end. Sarah tried to manipulate the system and for a long time she got away with it. I actually felt like she was a victim and snapped when they brought out the pictures. But when they played the video of Jorge sitting on the floor I instantly realized she was the aggressor. She was the one poking and provoking and he through reactive abuse fought back. Sarah is an undiagnosed narcissistic psychopath. She implemented the narcissistic cycle of abuse in her relationships. The prosecution did an amazing job of explaining exactly what happened here. Owens too .. he tried to fight for her and I believe he went into it knowing that she would not win. She only has her own self to blame because she wanted to be in control. I’m ready for the sentencing so that Jorge’s family will have their moment to be heard and true healing can begin. Let me add Judge Michael Kranick was a fair judge who maintained order and was very considerate in allowing the arguments fairly. Pretty sure he felt she was guilty from the start. Especially when he seen the video.

It was cut and dry for the Prosecutors but they swooped in and gave her a fair shot. This thing would've been a complete mess of explaining each and every step to Sarah had he not jumped in. She complained for so long about having a fair trial and Mr. Owens and team helped to ensure that she got exactly that. Now, we wait to find out her fate. I think she's going to blame everyone under the sun except herself when Judge K kindly hands her those decades she has to spend in Prison 😬😳

She had videos of herself psychologically abusing Jorge. She had him bash the TV so she could film him and claim it was proof of his violence. She liked to film things… so you’re telling me that this poor poor battered woman never turned the phone on to record him when he was actually being violent and abusing her? Not even once when he was being verbally abusive to her? Bish, please!! 🙄 Clearly she controlled every aspect of their relationship. She infantilized him. She berated him. She treated him like trash. All so she could feel better about herself. She was just as much an alcoholic as he was and the thought that she, the smartest person who excels at everything, was actually a loser was eating her up inside. Not enough to stop drinking and get her life together but enough that it made her feel better about herself to think, “at least I’m not as much of a loser as Jorge.” So she constantly made sure to tell him what a loser he was. She constantly picked fights with him. She regularly called the cops to punish him and play victim. All so she could feel better about herself because she’s a malignant narcissist who was no doubt massively insecure even before she became a drunk.

[@lydibug51]

I think Mr. Jay was easy on her whiie on the stand because he didn't want to come across to the jury as uncaring. She was going with the BSS defense so i believe he asked the right questions that pertained to her inconsistencies and when he said, You don't remember much that day, do you? Was the one question i was waiting for because you can't have it both ways, be that intoxicated that you only remember certain events and whatever that she deemed wasn't relevant. She's so dumb that she was willing to purjur herself when she explained to the jury that she did indeed remember making the video. If she went with her original story, she would have had no defense. So she had to admit to hurting him and taunting him ehile he was trapped so she could say she was abused daily from Jorge.

[@solmyrpendergast8387]

An excellent use of references to Vader and the original trilogy! This prosecutor is awesome.

[@SydMountaineer]

I think that after Sarah beat him badly, thinking he might die from the injuries (he might’ve been partly or fully unconscious after the head injury) she remembered what CPS told her when they questioned her about the photos of her son in the suitcase (that it’s dangerous & causes suffocation) so she decided to allow him to die from suffocation in the suitcase rather than possibly die from her beating him - it distances her from it in her mind, via her distorted, dark, narcissistic lens that she experience reality through. Narcissists get rid of any information that challenges the narrative they construct that excuses their behaviors. Then, they concoct fillers, invent plug-in stories for the gaps in their memory of what really happened (confabulations) that often change, and is what we see as lies. I think she put him in the suitcase (maybe he was partly or fully unconscious at the time) to ‘distance’ herself from his possible death from the beating, and to give herself time to think - she’d rather him die than be arrested for beating him so badly, and maybe she pushed it down the stairs with him in it to ‘finish the job’ so she wouldn’t have to SEE him die - like with how she delayed calling the police the next morning when he WAS dead, I think she was scared of being arrested for his beating, so she put him in the suitcase to blame it on that, like the suitcase is a perpetrator that distances her. She KNEW the beating she gave him was so bad that it couldn’t be hidden, that he’d have to get medical care, but IF she let him out, getting medical care would also mean her being arrested ASAP. I think her narcissism convinced her (dissociation & confabulation) that he would die from suffocation rather than the beating she gave him (like she said to police “maybe he suffocated”) which, in her mind, *distances HER* from the cause of his death, so she’d rather let him die from suffocation so she could blame it on that, rather than possibly from the other injuries she caused (she likely hit him in the head with the bat) and she couldn’t know exactly how severe it was, so she might’ve thought, at least for a while, if he was unconscious at some point, that he would die regardless, from the beating, so she *made the decision to keep him in the suitcase to suffocate,* it distances her, in her mind, from being his murderer. The majority of the time when narcissists lie, it’s not for the purpose of deceiving others, it’s because they TRULY believe their lies - dissociation & confabulation (confabulation is what we see as lies) - it’s what the defense mechanism of narcissism makes them believe to “protect” their inner self.

[@hectorperez7655]

Plus, she is way smarter than all of us!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@digitalwasabi2]

😂😂😂

[@kellyegan9824]

She wouldn’t even let him have a phone, his id and his birth certificate. This rebuttal showed the real Sarah. She has no soul

[@lucindalynnxo]

She just excels at everything in life and was a straight A student.... someone please call her old school & request a transcript! It might be a long shot but wouldn't if be hilarious if she was lying. The second-hand embarassment I experienced while watching her ask that officer for a hug and was trying to be quirky/cute. 🤢😵‍💫🥴

[@JessicaT-pi4bz]

The young kid behind the prosecutor with the shorter hair has been sitting in on all of the trials with Sarah Boone. I love watching him, watch the prosecution rebuttal. You can tell he is hanging on every word…just like I’m sure the jury was.

[@TerrysQuest]

Mr. Jay is a study in excellence. The law students are lucky to observe this (insert Law and Order sounds here).

[@Trina-k8s]

She beat that man with a bat and threw him down the stairs in that suitcase 25+ to life

[@micheledematteis2072]

LWOP will do

[@lorilouwho6804]

As soon as she said I made up the sword fight story, like did she really think she had a defense?

[@melissaanderson4682]

She can only blame herself..hitting that record button to hold stuff over Jorge's head so he walked to the beat of her drum.

[@tgdo]

i was worried at first when he started talking about star wars. But i got chills at 29:40. You know Jury felt free to fully disregard her story after that.

[@judi_girl]

A MASTERPIECE 💯

[@mosinc7388]

I really thought this prosecutor did a poor job until this closing. Buzzer beater.

[@Mayhem42083]

I find it fascinating to see their appearance fade as the trial goes on. By the end, they look pretty rough. Leticia stauch looked a hot mess at sentencing 😊

[@shamsratanshi356]

Sarah Boone had no reaction to the suitcase being brought out where Jorge had died - I felt so many emotions seeing it - this is where he died and now we are looking at the same suitcase - if she had any emotions she would have burst out crying - I gave Jorge a hug in my mind holding him with lots affection and a kiss on the cheek - He is in Gods arms where he is loved very much, I pray.

[@Starbeam2031]

Absolutely a wonderful rebuttal. Kudos!

[@elizabethjoclayton8892]

She beat his hand with a baseball bat when he tried to get out of the suitcase. That poor fellow didn’t have a chance against her.

[@pamelaoliver8442]

I wish she actually heard the words that came out of her mouth. "He subsided"..the whole story was horrifying

[@made-line7627]

The tie 😂 What a legend 👔 💜👌🏻

[@DillyDaller505]

25:20 She must be stressing at this moment, her LEGO hair is out of place. 😂

[@BrightSoul736]

🤭🤭🤭

[@Mooshkie50able]

The way she described Jorge with little fingers and little legs and how small he was "child like" and the way she would just talk to Jorge in a scolding manner? It really makes me wonder if she abused her own child similar to ways she abused Jorge physically and mentally! Her swearing to God and on her sons life, all the while lying through her teeth shows she was a liar all her life to get her own way! "We seen her lie with ease on the stand." She is a narcissist" She's heartless without feeling towards others except herself! I pray she gets life to save her son and Brian Boone from a life time of hell caused by her. Once she is sentenced? "They will finely be able to completely rid her by just changing their phone number." No more jail calls to pay for and no more Sarah!

[@davidgilmour9447]

I thought the prosecution blew their chance when the "Blue Eyed Dragon" testified. They made up for it here. Very well-crafted rebuttal after the defense attorneys weak close. It was weak because they had nothing but bad facts to argue.

[@hectorperez7655]

5:10 she is the provocateur of all of it, ask her ex-husband 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣, he did manage to survive her attacks because he is a big dude!!

[@sitruc5317]

The prosecution did a GREAT job!! Sarah is evil!

[@Catherine-u4k]

If there were closing argument awards this man would win!🎉

[@christinegarcia3586]

This is killing Sarah. You know its so hard for her to keep quiet. She's being told the truth she doesn't acknowledge.

[@katherineweber8955]

Thus rebuttal was fantastic.

[@mandystrong8196]

Sarah Boone started everything. I’ve heard the long text history. I hope judge Kraynick reviewed everything because Sarah Boone was the abuser! Jorge committed reactive abuse on a handful of occasions. If Jorge went to trial he would have a boatload of evidence to prove he suffered from battered Spouse syndrome. Bless his heart. He was trying to better himself because he loved his family. Sarah wasn’t going to let that happen. Jorge was safe with his family but she wouldn’t leave him alone. She would pursue him! Not the other way around. Sarah Boone is notorious for lying! She deserves Lilfe!

[@rubymarshall3843]

Yes, I have a neighbor that has me questioning what the crap she be doing in her house, sounds of something or someone tumbling down the stairs.

[@nicoleabate2162]

Keep her away from suitcases...

[@Buttercup203]

I would LOVE to see Sarah’s face while Mr Jay is saying this!! 😅

[@chaii_latte]

What a fabulous tie he's wearing though ❤

[@Timmichanga361]

Star Wars argument tipped the scales

[@NE0WN]

Damn good rebuttal.

[@S2375wattage]

Did he say "with all the luggage she brought into the relationship" 😂? you wrong for that 😂

[@honestchicreviews7935]

I've been critical of the prosecution this whole trial cuz they didn't object when they should have but they did a really good job in closing and rebuttal

[@lansvale28]

Imagine being stuck in a cell with Sarah Boone

[@BrightSoul736]

Now that would be cruel and unusual punishment 🤭🤭🤭

[@nonmihiseddeo4181]

Looks like Mr. Jay loves The Simpsons, too ❤😅

[@jermainewashington7447]

It just blows my mind how dumb Sarah is. If she just would have admitted she was hammered and didn’t remember doing it she probably would have been out by now or at least in a few more years. And if she would have committed herself to AA from day one in jail she actually might have been a decent person when she was released. Then she rejects a deal that was absolutely best case scenario and goes with a story that makes her look a thousand times worse.

[@routeirish2503]

In ALL the Sarah Boone videos, I haven't seen ONE PERSON SAY SARAH IS INNOCENT ETC. EVERYONE HATES SARAH!!! 😂

[@LifeofMadds]

Hey @CourtTV ❤ was wondering, will you be covering the Fall City trial? A 15 year old red rummed his mom, dad, sister, and brother. His other sister played dead to survive. He then called the police and blamed it on his 13yr old brother he had unalived, the sister ran over to the neighbors while having been injured with a shot in the hand and side to call the cops at the same time the defendant did.

[@ginagelia2880]
