Killer Au Pair Lies to Police at Horrifying Crime Scene | Juliana Magalhaes

[@christinerobin386]

When the Chief of Police said "We know what the homeowner husband told us happened, but we have a lot to do to substantiate that claim" that he already knew the husband was guilty.

[@CocoWantsACracker]

Any law enforcement officer who KNOWS someone is guilty pretty much before the investigation has started and who did not see the crime in progress in person or on CCTV footage is useless at their job and should resign immediately. He probably had a very strong suspicion, but let's face it: in most cases the murderer is the partner or an ex-partner of the victim, so those suspicions don't mean much either. Besides, the man hasn't been convicted yet, so even at this point saying you KNOW is technically slander.

[@sipppin]

Yup- this was a few minutes drive from my family and when I heard more about the case, especially later on when they gave more information regarding finding the husband and au pair, I knew instantly that this was some sort of weird love triangle. I always knew the initial report sounded fishy but once they released this info I think everyone (especially police) knew what had REALLY happened

[@oldhickory4686]

And lets be honest, the two reasons for his suspicion were staring him in the face...

[@ms.donaldson2533]

He was the Police Commissioner in Baltimore..... he has a lot of experience with police that don't tell the truth. HE is one of them!!!! This is the headline from THE ONLY REPORTER that called to ask the correct question..... WHERE is Sean Suiter buried. The FAKE Funeral for a Baltimore City Police Detective and I KNOW, because I was the one that answered the call from the reporter.

It's always suspicious when a random "home invasion" happens when only one of the married couple is at home. It's even more suspicious when the other partner arrives home just in time to "witness" the crime.

[@candee2746]

This is a plot I’ll never understand. Husband kills wife for new woman. What’s stopping him from killing new woman, when the next new woman comes along? How could you ever trust someone that killed his wife and mother of his child? People are actually insane.

[@johannas.l.brushane2518]

I would not be surprised if she was killed before Joseph. From what I heard at Court TV (or Vinnie Politan's channel) that it the bodies may have been moved. It does neither make sense she would have let in a stranger, even less gone to the bedroom with him.

[@gingerweasel2]

@@johannas.l.brushane2518 Well that one's easy, one of the others left the door unlocked and messaged him to "let himself in," maybe told him to meet her in the bedroom even. The blood splatter would have given it away easily if they were moved post-mortem. They may have forced them to relocate while still alive, though.

[@robsengahay5614]

@@johannas.l.brushane2518I thought the same. I suspect that the issue would have been getting the blood of his wife onto the clothing of the man they were framing for her murder. Maybe the plan was to switch the clothing hence the 15 minute delay but once this was done they realised he was still alive so shot him in the chest. The level of planning in this is chilling.

​@@johannas.l.brushane2518Looking into the case, I think they just deported her and she became somebody else's problem.

[@bibliophilicwoman]

Her charges are being brought down from murder to manslaughter. Her plea deal, requiring testimony, will be shortened jail time. She'll be given credit for time served since Mike said she was arrested September 2023 and the husband's trial date is set for March 2025 she'll have that time credited as served. I don't know for sure Virginia's sentencing guidelines for manslaughter (most states have an average low end term of as little as 7 years). Unfortunately, (using 7 years as an example) 7 yrs would in a lot of times break down to 4-5yrs served then remainder on probation. Since she's got a plea & a non-citizen they may credit her time served after she testifies and the trial is complete then deport her. This is the Justice system 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@MysterySmell]

after the trail in march she will be deported

[@titanomachy2217]

It's just a fact of life, women get more lenient sentences for the same crimes, on average. I think it would be a good idea to start using sophisticated AI programs instead of laughably biased and fallible judges and juries, at least someday, when the technology is advanced enough. There is an extreme lookism bias in courtrooms, too. Conventionally attractive people, and conventionally attractive women especially, are relatively unlikely to face real justice for their crimes, compared to plain people or particularly compared to ugly men. Look through any given prison population and you will notice that the men inside tend to be not exactly soft on the eyes.

I think the cops knew that the husband behind the murder plot, but they needed something like a confession, or some definitive evidence.

My belief about these rich people that hire sexy au pairs to live with them is that it is basically a sexual arrangement more often than it isn't. I mean, how naive would you have to be to think a busty Brazilian woman could come live in your house and that your husband wouldn't have sex with her, now in the 2020s in the West? I figure the wife was fine with them having sex and probably had threesomes with them but just didn't expect her husband to catch feelings for the au pair, and obviously she wouldn't expect to be murdered. I just have trouble believing these rich people that go out of their way to bring younger women under their roofs actually are totally blindsided when the husbands sleep with these women. I think that's just part of the deal, to spice up the marriage. I mean, do you really need your maid to live with you? Does she really need to be a busty Brazilian woman? And the couple had fetlife accounts it sounds like, so it all lines up. I think the older generations just don't know how common swinging has become now and assume it was all behind the wife's back, but nah, she definitely knew, you'd have to be totally blind not to know. I think she just didn't know how far it went.

I have learned from watching many police interview analysis videos, that people who start giving all kinds of long winded explanations and unecessary details without even being asked are usually guilty. Verbal diarrhea is a dead give away. The dry eyes crying is bad too.

The fake gasping for air when talking always tells on them. They always overdo that. LOLOL When one lacks empathy, emotional distress is so hard to fake. OMG, if somebody made a compilation of these fakers, that would be such a fun to watch. :D

[@gingerweasel2]

Yup. There is such a thing as panicking/hyperventilating, but when you're out of danger and actively trying to tell a story, you'll be (overall) trying to calm yourself and breathe slower. Sometimes you might have to ask for a break to collect yourself, but you'll generally be more collected after you take a minute, not at a steady "same level of panic no matter what" level for hours after.

[@Julienna]

@@gingerweasel2 exactly this. It was already explained by a professional crime investigator, that the hyperventilation, when natural, tends to go away within a few mins naturally. (The body does that to prevent fainting and other unpleasant side effects.) And the person usually tries to calm down first and then speak or take breaks to relax and then speak. But if the hyperventilation and gasping for air keeps occurring for a long time, or it comes on and off, it is rather faked. Also, when the voice becomes very high-pitched and the person keeps gasping for air after each and every syllable... Just like her. We see that she forgot gasping for air a few times when answering questions to the cop, then reminded herself and went back to the fake gasping. LOL. I felt second hand embarrassment for her. She made herself look suspicious with this behavior.

[@junemarshall-kingsley566]

Those flailing hands remind me of the hyperventilating Chasey Poynter--just over the top bad acting. This is obviously a girl trying to better herself through sex and making moves on the man of the house. Meanwhile, she is ungrateful tothe kindly wife that brought her in and gave her opportunities that would never exist for her in Brazil.

[@redwoodtrail]

Check out the reetv documentaries channel. They have a “crocodile tears” series. It shows a bunch of highly publicized clips from people later convicted of a horrible crime. Horrible actors, all of them.

[@GrimCrime-x7e]

I'm honestly shocked by how Juliana's character turned from a 'dream-come-true' au pair to being involved in this horrific crime. It’s fascinating how sometimes the people we trust the most can have the darkest secrets. Amazing breakdown of the story, Mike!

Completely irrelevant to the story, but hearing the newscaster say "a canine dog" made my ears perk up. Do they sometimes use feline dogs? Or maybe bovine dogs aka bulldogs?

Yeah I noticed the houses shown are pretty boring and very close together, and at least in the immediate area of the incident, no big old trees; they look like they were planted when the homes were built. My cousins live in Bethesda and their area is gorgeous.

I always love the fake "state of shock" people (in this case the nanny) display. You think they would practice that more prior to the "event".

[@johannas.l.brushane2518]

Maybe they do but get it wrong for they get their idea of how a person in shock behaves is from tv-series and films?

[@jaybee4118]

Or maybe your assumption of what it looks like isn’t correct? There’s no one way to react. Everyone is different.

[@johannas.l.brushane2518]

@jaybee4118 There's not one way to react but surely it's no more than perhaps a few handful but oddly enough those who fake it does it in a very similar way and are typically recognised as fakers quite immediately for people are not as unique as we often wish to believe, we are more alike than not. For instance they are waving their arms and not shaking as a neurological reaction of severe stress etc. Or do seriously believe that reactions that are to a significantly determined by the automatic nervous system aside of experience and upbringing is so highly individualistic that "everyone is different" so there would be like 334.9 million different reactions to shock? If that belief is widespread is no wonder that the level of chronich disease is so high in a modern country like USA. An experienced interrogator standing close enough can even spot the pulse rate in your jugular (unless you're very obese) to recognise if you're more stressed by them questioning you.
