[@nancyosullivan7625]

Lmao😂

[@deborahrose8607]

Guilty! Lots of circumstantial evidence that cannot be ignored

[@lauraknight8839]

Guilty. Any normal person would have called 911

[@CaseyRhyneXoXo]

True but I don't understand how several friends and family members go visit him while he's unconscious for hours and urinating on himself and not one of them called 911. It's even weird to me that his friend who finally took him to the hospital chose to drive him instead of calling 911 for an ambulance so paramedics could transport him. He clearly needed lifesaving support that his wife, friends and family were incapable of performing.,

[@Persepolis8564]

I really despise this lawyer

[@glovanajnbaptiste2272]

When your husband collapses on the floor and becomes unresponsive you call 911. You don't send pictures of him to your friends and don't try to help him. Unless you wanted him dead. Guiltily

[@VioletJoy]

This defense attorney is so incredibly unlikable, which is the mildest complaint I have about him.

[@alison9642]

@@VioletJoy Unfortunately, defense attorneys have a hard job to do. I don’t care for him. I care less for his client especially since I am a pharmacist. Anyway, let us hope neither you nor I need a defense attorney.

[@VioletJoy]

@alison9642 I appreciate our legal system. That's not the issue here. It's his style of action. His schtick is anger = right. I wouldn't want him working for me.

[@teresathayn5170]

I think she's guilty. All the evidence in her favor was produced by her, Natalie! Duh.

[@toddmoore9138]

Not bad for a guy who is LIVING IN A VAN, DOWN BY THE RIVER!

[@kelliannebirchler1814]

The fact she didn't call 911 ?? Feel she's guilty.

[@whyucare24]

The fact that many people came by the house to check on him including a nurse practitioner didn't call an ambulance make me feel she's not guilty🤔

[@Momfia51]

The fact the degenerate TOLD everyone he didn't want to go. She's a murderess. ​@@whyucare24

[@Bethst-y3y]

Makes me think she wanted the people she “conned” to “think” she cared about her unconscious husband! Everyone she asked to help told her to get him help and she chose not to, she didn’t want him dying with just her there. This would have caused for an autopsy to have been done. IMO. With how she continued to do business, talk to the bank, use of his phone pretending to be him, but what makes me believe she is guilty beyond the fact she let him lay there all day, is the fact she continued to do the scheming after his death, going after more investors, applying for loans. She didn’t want the scheming to end. She didn’t want to her husband knowing the actual truth. Not one person said he was greedy, but kind, he wouldn’t have let it go, he had his best friend involved, telling her lawsuits were coming, she had to stop Mike to stop Chris Davis, the truth was coming to light! All his health issues were her lies. Mike become suspicious in August, he became sick soon after, and when the bank would have been his final destination in knowing the truth, she finished him. Then gained community support with the cancer. Shady Spring held fundraisers for her. She even allowed this knowing she didn’t have cancer. Allowed her mother to use her business as a means of fundraising for her. All this to by her time, to be seen as a victim and her intentions was to frame her dead husband for it all, because she was too ill to have done all this with cancer!!! She may have been medicine savvy but she wasn’t tech savvy, all those deleted messages came back to haunt her. Guilt to me is when she pretended to be her husband to another investor knowing he was unconscious!!!

[@Talk2Me7]

@Bethst-y3ybeing a POS doesn’t equate to being a M-ER. I believed she did it BUT also believe too much reasonable doubt

I love how this attorney thinks he's smarter than the experts how disgraceful pitiful

He doesn’t have to be smartest he just has to cast reasonable doubt and u believe he has. Listen to the words used

[@beemergrl3017]

This is the LEAST convincing defense I’ve ever heard.

[@melanierossi4388]

She could have given the Benzodiazapine med first. He is allergic! That could cause the collapse and then she injects the insulin.

[@marcellaflubacher8207]

He sounds more like he is giving ‘closing suggestions’ than closing arguments

[@jlmann8109]

Keep in mind that the defense attorney doesn’t have to “prove” anything.

[@lindamateri7298]

That’s refreshing because he can’t

[@sherribush2028]

Oh brother defense sucks guilty

[@beemergrl3017]

Oooo she’s guilty as sin.

[@pattyakriel9918]

This attorney's closing argument is his perspective of what is plausible and possible, he's not dealing with facts to argue. He didn't have a clue, but he had deep profound knowledge 😮 . His only hope is that at minimum 1 of the jurors has reasonable doubt. enough. His argument is way too packed with too many coincidence, too many "reasons" for the legal "story" presented with a timeliness of events.

[@RRP714]

If she is so innocent, why didn't she get up there and explain why she didn't call 911. Smh.

[@nasrinquresho5273]

People who perpetrate fraud are capable of causing other kinds of harm. It's a mindset

The daughter said that he injects himself with steroids in the kitchen all the time... he was found in the kitchen on the floor. Remember the picture.. she replaced some of his steroids with insulin. That's why he was laying in the kitchen.

Sge must have given him all of them because she was determined to get rid of him. Otherwise, why would she not let people take him to the hospital?

[@tmcurly]

Is this a public defender ?? 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

[@suzannelindsay2247]

😂

[@dowaliby1]

My understanding is that they were appointed by the Court to defend her. The State of West Virginia is paying their fee, as well as the Defendant's costs (expert witness fees, etc.. So not public defenders, but attorneys who are in private practice and have been specially appointed by the Court in this case to represent her. She probably doesn't have a dime to her name at this point -- unless she was able to hide away some cash.

He used steroids routinely so maybe she told him this is your steroids or he was so used to shots he didn't feel it or she put it in his steroids so he was injecting himself with insulin the very first time.
