Gotta love a narcissist. Because they always get caught by their arrogance

[@tinab3627]

Give them a shovel & they will dig their own hole

And he thinks he is really doing something here. He thinks he is so intelligent but he can’t see how arrogant and smug he looks.

[@taylorharper5268]

My thoughts exactly! Nothing was his fault, always has an answer (whether it makes sense or not doesn’t matter) for everything. Horrible decision him taking the stand. Go ahead and lock him up and pray karma comes around in prison!

[@verabolton]

They don't always get caught. But you'll only see those who got caught. Way too many get away with their crimes, sadly.

Jury. "Ok, so let's take 10 minutes to use the bathroom, grab a coffee, convict him, then go home."

[@msj9097]

Reminds me of when I served on a jury.....we had one juror that misunderstood the jury instructions for one of the charges. After all 11 of us cleared up that issue ( a nice way of saying are you stupid he is guilty as hell) we all came to the correct conclusion. It took us longer to notify the bailiff, file into the courtroom and have the verdict read than it took us to find him guilty. That defendant also had a lawyer that had no defense for his client but thankfully the defendant never took the stand.

[@tinab3627]

Same!! I said in another post that he is better off with both his mom & this guy gone from his life!! These two are a piece of work!

[@mikeygraves16]

I partly agree with the few comments in this thread. But where I differ is that yes, the child was definitely better off with neither of his parents at that time, but having his mother being dead & murdered for that to happen was definitely not the correct way to "help" or "save" him. Keith shouldn't have ever been around the kid, period. But his mother obviously loved him. Unfortunately she was in the grips of addiction, but with help, and/or long-term treatment, she could've eventually turned her life around for the better, and down the road maybe would've given the kid the life he had deserved. So many of us were raised, practically since we could walk & talk, that addicts were akin to the scum of the earth, who knew every risk & possible outcome associated with doing drugs, yet they all deliberately CHOSE to become addicts, and then also always simply CHOSE to stay one. Thankfully we've learned so much more about the disease of addiction over the last couple of decades. Even over the last 10 years we've learned so much that we hadn't known prior. I'm sure most people know what I mean, but I'd just like to leave a quick example: My mom, who is 71 years old, has never tried a cigarette, let alone marijuana, and would only have 1 or 2 drinks max, socially, on either Christmas Eve or Christmas, and sometimes maybe a half to no more than one full glass of wine/champagne at a wedding (although even tho she's never had Amy kind of problem with drinking, she hasn't had a sip of alcohol that wasn't wine from communion at her church, since 2008). My mom's always had horrible health problems since early adulthood. Including having to get a pacemaker installed when she was only 32. But six years ago, when she was 65, she ended up having to have double hip replacement surgery. The doctors obviously prescribed her pain meds to take during the recovery & rehabbing process, that ended up lasting over a year alone due to complications. Mom, maybe naively, always assumed that if a medical professional prescribes you any pills, then first, they definitely know what they're talking about. And second, that those aren't "DRUGS" drugs, you know what I mean? Anyway, long story short: my mom has now been hooked on heroin for the last 3+ years. The doctor kept upping her milligram dosage throughout that year+ during her recovery, instead of slowly weaning her off the pills after a few months. What happened instead was, like I already mentioned, he would constantly increase the milligrams, while also increasing the instructions from "Take As Needed", to take 1 every 8 hours, to 1 every 6 hours, etc. Then what happened one day when she went for her appt. that she had scheduled the month before, was she got to the doctors office, only to find it had closed down a couple weeks beforehand. Shortly thereafter she found out that the Dr. had been raided by the feds because he was running a pill mill, and any patient was able to just literally tell him something like "Hey I need a script for perc 30's, at least 60/mo. plus refills". Needless to say, she was instantly cut off cold turkey after everything. She's checked herself into multiple rehabs at this point, but so far nothing has stuck. Anyways, I apologize for ending up writing the KZbin comment equivalent of "War & Peace". But I sincerely do appreciate it if you've stayed with me this far. Everyone & every circumstance is different. If possible, try a little harder to be more understanding and/or empathetic towards people suffering from addiction.

They should not have let him use meth within a few hours before he took the stand.

[@peggyreely8339]

Ewwww! He is repulsive. He really shouldn't have taken the stand. 🤢🤮

[@makeminetexas3494]

I could never be a defense attorney. I know they have a job to do and I’d certainly want mine to do his best to get me acquitted if I was wrongly accused, but to have to tell what you know are lies and having to back up your client’s terrible lies as if you believe them would be about three miles too far for me.

[@davidwright873]

he's looking bloated...more so than from the original pic...

[@foxx180]

She DEEEEEE-Stroyed him on that stand. 🤦🏽‍♂️ She put him in a trance, and how he’s all slouched over, mouth dry and looking defeated. And how was she smoking meth in the bathroom, when he said he woke up and went to the bathroom 🤨 Guilty

A narcissist will ALWAYS take the stand!!!!

[@Ocrilat]

He's told so many lies now that it's hard to even listen to him. This is the third completely different explanation about what happened. He keeps changing his story...even from one sentence to the next. He lies, then has to lie to fix the previous lie. And it still makes no sense.

Did anyone notice hardly any objections from either side?

[@msj9097]

He is doing such a great job convicting himself I see no reason for the prosecutor to object lol

[@dabblingjohn]

Yep, even when she referred to the bedroom during the cross as the “murder scene.”

[@overandunderit]

The lawyer who allowed him to get on the stand should be disbarred

It is his right to [bury] testify in his own defense

His other three lawyers before this one quit, they knew he was screwed.
