I am sorry but I didn't get why Mr Cooney's lawyer and friend, Mr Springer if I got it right, wasn't allowed to continue his testimony... can anyone please elaborate on that?

[@emmabutler8958]

[@zenta-g6m]

I really can't believe this case...the way my jaw dropped hearing she shot her son.....wow!!!! You really can't make this up!!!

[@DrJ-hx7wv]

The miscarriage of justice in 2010 led to her believing herself invincible. She knew she'd get away with it again. Her pleas for mercy makes me sick. Her son is terrified of her. The boy suffered a lifetime of abuse. When she finally dies, we'll hear just how abusive she truly is.

[@SeauxNOLALady]

Women are capable of a specific level of evil that is the most calculated and vicious humanly possible. Especially when it involves money, child custody, and divorce settlements… Not that the victim is to blame, but men need to be weary of women with ulterior motives who may be willing to destroy you and your life for her own benefit…. AND PEOPLE, STOP MARRYING PEOPLE THAT YOU JUST MET! You should spend at least a year with someone before you consider becoming legally bound by marriage… Not to mention having children elevates the risk of finding yourself in a vicious situation.

[@harrymccallum1226]

How did the jury get this so wrong ?They went with their hearts because of the boy, and she did him over aswell ,come on, that's too much she should be sitting in jail

A piece of advice to anyone who is a parent and going through a divorce;if u want to see your children or its your turn to have custody NEVER ever go to the house where she resides or any of her families house.she/he will do exactly this and plant a weapon and claim self defense.

[@sheilae.9670]

Yes. Kind of similar to what happened to Jared Bridegan on going case when he picked up his children from his ex-wife's house and was killed nearby... very sad.

[@Pushing4wardwithTee]

[@TheRight-handedStranger]

She got away with a murder. She had good lawyer and she used her child to get what she wanted.

[@AlexaCBrown]

Our hearts hurt for his boys, and all who loved this man. His long time friend who tried to let the court and community know what a terrible woman she is, we send our deepest sympathies to, as well. I lost my best friend to murder in December, 1996. The evil and vile being, walked free this past July, 2022. We are disgusted in our justice system, some jurors, and some judges. She will, as well as all true vile people, have justice served at some point... whether we see it or not. ⚖️🙏

[@cutiepie71181]

Oh my gosh! I commented before watching the final part! She PARALYZED HER SON?! What!!! What in the actual heck and she got away with both crimes! 😮 This is despicable! What a beast of a woman!! How can she even live with herself?!

[@loisannlovelace8988]

When many ppl tell u to be aware of your new partner and not to marry them, you just might wanna listen

[@ec6781]

I've never heard anything like this. If they had the forensics and new technology she would be in prison. At that time it was all testimony that convicted or in this sad case found not guilty. I cannot believe this piece of garbage shot her son and he testified again on her behalf. It goes to show you how manipulative she was even as he was a young man and a paraplegic. I hope she lives a life of misery!

[@Thatsher21]

The evidence was there. The jury was just stupid and didn’t use common sense. They believed the child’s testimony even though it conflicted with the evidence. She’s a sick evil person and unfortunately her sons are now her victims. SMH

[@paulakegley3892]

She will have to answer to a higher power for her evil deeds...There is NO DOUBT in MY mind that she is GUILTY!...

[@Aboma2012]

No in Florida it doesn’t matter they will let women free as long she is rich and maybe good looking.

[@Scottallen8909]

Stunning !!! I had not heard of this trial or the woman who was involved in her husband’s death but for her to have gotten the weapon Back from police after the trial and Then her son was shot with the same weapon ?? Wow and she walks fee today ? Unbelievable

[@phoenixmerridian9119]

the unkown being overwhelming for people who cant financially take care of themselves is the truest thing I ever heard. it would certainly help a lot of people leave abusive relationships if they could atleast not have to worry about not having a place to live and food to eat. I know so many women who can't leave because they got stuck at home with a mentally abusive man who holds the bank account and therefor the kid hostage.

[@sunshinehoward9649]

Can someone explain why the jury was not supposed to hear that she shot her son with the same gun she killed her husband with? (they overturned her conviction on that) I would like know why not? if it is public record, why can't it be told to the jury?

[@CoffeeCatsAndTrueCrime]

I'm no lawyer but I think it's a matter of potential tainting the jury against her. Including it could lead to the defense being able to overturn a conviction or call for a mistrial. Not saying I agree with it, however.

[@sabrinadunson6903]

The information would be Highly Prejudicial to the Jury They are Not allowed to hear About previous crimes and Or criminal activities Murders Rape etc Because they might be Judged on that fact And Not the evidence Pertaining to this case Often when convicted They are allowed to be Brought in during the Sentencing Phase But Not Always

[@JessLBreen]

It's a form of bias prejudicial information! Now some of the info about the police not being able to take measurements and all at the crime scene! The fact that the original gunshot prior to him coming into the house should had been 100% known! The fact of him grabbing a knife she knew could play out in her favor but if he did grab the knife it was likely in case someone was in the home attacking her due to hearing the gunshot

[@TawnyC_]

No one should be surprised that she shot her son...least of all her son. As the Family and Marriage Atty stated, a child would be afraid to tell the truth since the only person left to take care of him could do the same to him as she'd done to his father. So he actually should have told the truth and testified _against_ his mother. Then maybe she wouldn't have had the chance.

[@Aboma2012]

Their needs to be law were people can be tried again with different judge and jury when evidence is overwhelming and jury and jury decides to defend killer. This is injustice but not surprised since Florida is known for that

[@SweetT601]

Wow! Kevin must be terrified of her. He lied about his own shooting as well. And hid brother who is a cop lied as well. Talk about a monster. Linda is definitely a monster.

[@shirleysmith6131]

He was a good father and probably a good husband. She can't take that away. She's hateful and treated him less than human.Hope she never gets out. I hope the child can cope. That's a heavy burden for a child. God bless him.

Too many incidents happens around child custody .Idk the solution but in my case I survived only because the court allowed me to move abroad with our child after years of stalking violence abuse rape harassment and endangering our child. Most of which the police did not take serious. That’s 10 years ago and he never made contact to the child he said he wanted to see.

The fact she got off on killing her husband and attempted to kill her son she will one day mess with the wrong person and they won't let the justice system handle it they will take her out themselves!

Ok, being acquitted of murder once claiming self defense is exceptional…but TWICE!?!?

Wow!! New one to me. When she was found not guilty of murder of husband I’m thinking well as long as she doesn’t have any relationships with other men there are worse people on the street. But getting the gun out again to save her wonderful son from what mother dear thought was a b- girl friend just proves that leopards don’t change their spots ever. (Short of a major change like a religious experience and those types would take action to not allow themselves to have guns. That’s more along the lines of making sure the spots don’t have a chance)

There’s no question the kids have been hypnotized by her …close friends can sometimes see through them as this lawyer friend of James could clearly see … But casual acquaintances will never see the reality behind the mask … what a disgusting psychotic B*%ch … who will one day get the karma she deserves … But it doesn’t surprise me she got off in both situations ..They always do ! … I like how the defence mentioned that the jury if using common sense will convict lol … Obviously not an ounce of it in these cases !
