Quick Bits: Alex Murdaugh Boat Crash Settlement. Donna & Charlie’s Conflict of Interest. Girardi Retrial?

The headlines are saying that Alex Murdaugh settled the Mallory Beach Boat Crash case. I break down the settlement filings to get a complete understanding of what happened with this case. We are still waiting on rulings with regard to 'Courthouse Becky’s' case.Charlie Adelson is requesting a new trial because his attorney, Mr. Rashbaum, who represented him during the trial where he received a guilty verdict, had previously represented his mother, Donna Adelson, during the investigation process of the case. This conflict of interest with an attorney could cause a problem during the appellate process and I will keep an eye on what decision will be made in the future.Tom Girardi is also asking for a new trial on the basis that he was not competent to stand trial during that time. Tanya McAlpin, a person who was hired by the Girardi family to transport him from the living facility to the court, wrote an affidavit explaining that he would say things and behave in ways that showed he was not aware of what was going on. I hope to be there in person on December 6th to see the ruling.RESOURCESJail Calls - https://youtu.be/6M34oXfzGpM This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Sarah Boone Trial Day 1 - Summary

Opening Statements in the Sarah Boone Trial were presented by both the Prosecution and Defense. The State was able to get through 10 witnesses on Day 1 which is an impressive feat. Among the civilian witnesses were Jorge Torres's Bother, Sarah Boone's Ex-Husband and the apartment neighbors. The state was able push in a lot of evidence through witnesses like the 911 operator, the assistant store manger, deputy sheriffs at the scene and the CSI forensic biologist. The defense said that Sarah Boone is expected to testify next week. If the first day is any indication of the speed of the evidence, the trial might be done before the three weeks the judge has allotted.Watch the full coverage: https://youtube.com/live/-whxB4FZ4TEThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Sarah Boone Pre-Trial Motions Summary

Sarah Boone was arrested in 2020 for Second Degree Murder of her boyfriend, Jorge Torres. She said they were playing hide and seek and she zipped him up a suitcase. Police found a video in Sarah’s phone of Jorge Torres pleading to be released because he couldn’t breathe. She is heard mocking and taunting him. Sarah has gone through eight different state appointed defense attorneys. The judge said that she was going to have to represent herself due to her behavior. Boone wrote an advertisement and is now being represented by a private attorney.I covered both pre-trial motion hearings for Wednesday, October 16th and Thursday, October 17th. The court has ruled that until Sara Boone takes the stand and establishes the legal grounds or foundations for a self-defense claim, the evidence of that can't come in. We're not going to see an expert or a witness testimony before Sara Boone gets on the stand to testify about any self-defense or battered spouse syndrome or similar.Watch the full coverage: https://youtube.com/live/FVhz7hU3ew4This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Opening Statements will most likely begin on Thursday, October 17th. I’ll be providing gavel to gavel coverage of the trial so get the Law Nerd App to stay in the loop!Boone is charged with Second Degree Murder of her boyfriend, Jorge Torres. She claimed that they were playing around while she was drunk and put him in a suitcase and accidently forgot about him overnight. She called the police after she found him dead from suffocation. The police went through her phone and found a video of Jorge pleading with her to release him from the suitcase because he couldn’t breathe. Boone instead taunted and laughed at Torres. She was arrested in 2020 and has remained in custody. Boone has had 8 public defenders and had to represent herself because she would not work with her appointed representation. Boone put out an advertisement and managed to get a private attorney to take on her case. Last week, she rejected a plea deal for the lesser charge of manslaughter serving 15 years. Sean Diddy Combs is facing six new civil cases filed against him by attorney Tony Buzbee, with more on the way. These cases will be added to the federal criminal case if there is sufficient evidence. Diddy’s attorney defended his client stating that they have full confidence in the fact that he didn’t do the things claimed in the lawsuits. His attorney’s will most likely claim that Diddy cannot adequately represent himself from the barrage of civil litigation while in custody. We’ll see what the judges will rule in early November.RESOURCESSarah Boone Rejects Plea Deal - https://youtu.be/RRKJ7cisDJsThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Bryan Kohberger is set to start trial in August 2025, and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is set for trial in May 2025. It’s unlikely that Diddy will go to trial in May as scheduled due to the amount of digital evidence in the case. Diddy is still trying to be released from custody and is asking to have his appeal argued in early November. Even when cases go to trial, it doesn’t mean they are done as Alec Baldwin has been learning. Prosecutor Kerri Morrissey is still pursuing her motion to have the court reconsider dismissing Baldwin’s case with prejudice. That isn’t set for hearing yet. Hopefully, we will get a hearing date soon.In a surprise move that avoids a trial altogether the CFO of Girardi Keese, Christopher Kamon, took a plea deal and pleaded guilty on October 11th, 2024, with a sentencing date not set yet.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Kefee D, who is charged with the murder of Tupac, wrote a book called "Compton Street Legend" and said that Diddy ordered the hit on Tupac. He also says that the only two people who are alive from that night are himself and Suge Knight. Will they speak up? Diddy also has a new judge, Arun Subramanian, assigned to the case which means that his attorneys can have 2 more opportunities to make their case to get Diddy out of custody. He also has new attorneys assigned to the case, Anthony Ricco and Alexandra Shapiro. Alexandra is an appellate attorney and is signed on the appeal of the denial of bail. Interestingly she is also the appellate lawyer for Sam Bankman Fried and filed his appeal for a new trial. Shapiro was also a clerk for Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.High-profile Houston attorney Tony Buzbee did a press conference stating that he will be bringing individual civil cases against Sean Diddy Combs. So far, he has accepted 120 clients and plans to file them within 30 days. He said that some of the victims were as recent as 2024 and one victim claims that they were as young as 9 years old when they were assaulted by Diddy.

Menendez Brothers Getting Out of Prison? Diddy Investigated for Tupac's Murder?

The evidence after two trials seems clear that Lyle and Erik Menendez murdered their parents in Beverly Hills in 1989. They were convicted after their second trial in 1996. The brothers filed a Habeas petition asking the court to vacate the conviction based on new evidence. On Thursday, 10-3-24, District Attorney Gascon stated there will be a hearing at the end of November. Tupac’s family hired Alex Spiro, Alec Baldwin’s attorney in the Rust case, to investigate to see if Diddy has any connection with the murder. Now that Diddy is in custody, that investigation may be easier to do. It would be natural to question Keefe D and Suge Knight. I will cover more Diddy updates in this week’s podcast.Karen Read’s retrial has a new special prosecutor who will be paid up to $75k for the prosecution.

Alex Murdaugh's Appeal on Federal Financial Crimes Was Denied

Alex Murdaugh was sentenced federally for conspiracy to commit wire fraud, bank fraud, and money laundering. Murdaugh made a plea deal with the feds to plea guilty because he had already admitted to the crimes during the the state's murder trial.The judge sentenced him to 40 years which was more than the prosecution recommended. The judge said they did this to send a message to deter attorneys who may want to steal from their clients.Alex Murdaugh Appealed the sentencing but the government dismissed it because part of the plea was that he would not appeal the decisions that would be made. Murdaugh's murder case is still going through the appeal process for new trial due to Becky Hill's interference and his appeal on the murder conviction is still on hold. But as far as the financial crimes brought by the Feds, that case is now closed.Watch the full coverage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OfqoJjeWKA&t=694sThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Netflix has filed a request for Dismissal and Anti-SLAPP. Netflix provided a Declaration from Richard Gadd including many exhibits proving Fiona Harvey sent Richard Gadd harassing emails, text messages, voice mails, and also accusations of stalking a Member of Parliaments' wife.These exhibits show that Harvey did do the things detailed in the mini series but was not a "beat by beat" recount of what happened. The Judge made a ruling by denying the Anti-SLAPP and dismissed some of the causes of action from Fiona’s case; only leaving the Defamation and Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress. The line in the Netflix show that said, “this is a true story” was false and can imply malice because it can lead the viewer to believe that all of the things that happened in the series were true when that is not the case. It is likely that the case will go to mediation and settle out of court.Netflix is being sued for defamation by John Wilson for the documentary: Operation Varsity Blues - The College Admissions Scandal.

Diddy’s Roommate. Kohberger has a new Judge. Mr. Beast gets sued again.

MrBeast's Beast Games and Amazon Prime have a class action lawsuit filed against them in California. This is interesting because the production happened in Nevada but the plaintiffs live in California. We'll see if jurisdiction will be granted in this case. Let me know if you want a deep dive into these claims. Diddy's attorney did an interview with TMZ and claimed that Costco had a sale on baby oil which is why he stocked up. Costco put out a statement clarifying that none of the US stores carry baby oil. It is also reported that Diddy's new roommate is Sam Bankman-Fried while he is in the Metropolitan Detention Center.Bryan Kohberger had his first hearing with the new judge and venue. It was more of a status conference and the trial might get pushed to September 2025. Judge Steven Hippler made it clear that he wasn't happy to be there and will work faster than they are used to.Hannah Gutierrez was in court to see if she could get her case dismissed or recieve a new trial. If Gutierrez is granted a new trial she will immediately be released from custody and the defense will request that a new special prosecutor will be assigned to the case. The judge listened to the defense and the prosecution and took it all under submission and promised to make a ruling in a week.The 11th Circuit came back after oral arguments on the Todd and Julie Chrisley's Appeal and upheld the trial court's actions. They did however send Julie's case back to resentencing and her attorney argued that she should get five years instead of seven. The judge kept it at seven years stating that she already has below the federal minimum. Unfortunately, that puts her back to the same place.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Quick Bits: Karen Read's 20/20 Interview. Trooper Proctor Update. Alec Baldwin's Judge Responded To Prosecution.

Get 20% OFF @honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/LAWNERD! #honeylovepod #adOn Friday, September 6th, Karen Read was interviewed on ABC's 20/20 show. I share my initial thoughts on the show and what this could mean for the upcoming retrial in 2025. I will go more in depth in this week's podcast episode. The Commonwealth filed motions to block defense attorneys from getting the full extraction of Trooper Proctor's work phone. His personal cell phone was turned over, but now they are trying to get into his work phone. I will go more in depth about that on Wednesday's podcast episode as well. For last week's podcast, I went over the arrest of former Police Officer, Matthew Farwell, for the murder of Sandra Birchmore and the Feds charging him with Killing a witness or victim. I answered some of the questions you had in the comment section of the video and what could come next.Governor Healey of MA brought in Lieutenant Colonel Jeffrey Noble from New Jersey as the new Head of State Police. Not only is it good news to appoint someone from outside the state, I wouldn't be surprised if they end up under a consent decree. Kari Morrisey filed a fifty-two page motion to reconsider Alec Baldwin's dismissal with prejudice on a request to exceed the page limit. The Judge denied the state's motion for extension of page limits and cited case law that talks about deterring frivolous filings. Kari Morrissey can technically refile this motion again but it has to be within the 10 page limit.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

The judge determined that there is probable cause to move forward with a jury trial. Richins pled not guilty and her trial is scheduled for May of 2025.Bryan Kohberger had a change of venue hearing last week, where the defense brought in their witnesses to explain the results of the surveys.

The defense argues that the grand jury indictment should be dismissed due to prosecutorial bad faith and that there were structural errors in the grand jury indictment. The judge asked pointed questions to the prosecution about their conduct. The prosecution had leaked the date of the indictment to the New York Times, cut off witnesses during their testimony, and didn't reach out to other possible witnesses' attorneys to let them know they might be needed for that hearing. The judge stated that they would make a written ruling this week and with the amount of questions the judge had, it is possible that the dismissal could get granted. Kouri Richins’ defense attorneys filed a motion to disqualify the prosecution and to designate the "Walk The Dog" letter as attorney-client privilege. Subsequently, the firm withdrew from her case.

Quick Bits: Hannah Gutierrez's Jail Calls! Diddy & His Son Are Sued. Bryan Kohberger Had A Fiery Hearing.

Hannah Gutierrez's attorney requested the court to do a conditional discharge which places her on probation with certain conditions. Upon the successful completion of that probation, there will be no conviction on her record. The prosecution responded that Hannah is eligible for a conditional discharge, however, it should not be granted because other felonies are pending and cites failure to accept responsibility due to what was said in the recorded jail calls. I'll be live on the Emily D. Baker YouTube channel to cover the sentencing on Monday, April 15th at 11 am CST.The state responded to Alec Baldwin's motion to dismiss the indictment. The state detailed how they followed the rules of the grand jury and why the trial should move forward. They also explained the reason for rescinding the original plea deal. The state says that after they extended the plea deal to Alec Baldwin, they never responded to the email, told a reporter about the nature of the plea deal, commissioned a documentary about the shooting, and pressured witnesses to be interviewed in the documentary.In a new filing, Diddy and his son, Christian "King" Combs, were sued by a crew member and bartender on a yacht. The attorney representing this case is the same attorney representing Lil' Rod. In an unrelated case, the attorney has been referred to the discipline committee for filing cases in federal court to boost media attention.Bryan Kohberger had a fiery hearing. The TikTok Psychic was mentioned by the survey expert, Bryan Edelman, as part of misinformation that is floating around about the case. A video of the prosecutor, Bill, was used as an example of disseminating information.Bill accused Edelman of tainting the jury pool and Edelman said he was so angry it made him cry. The judge didn't make a ruling but did push back the change of venue hearing to June 27th, 2024, and kept the May 14th, 2024 Hearing to go over a motion to compel.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Unsurprisingly, this plaintiff and Lil’ Rod have the same attorney, currently under fire in New York Federal court. The attorneys for UMG brought to the court's attention a court order in an unrelated case brought by Attorney Blackburn wherein the court ordered him referred to the discipline committee of the federal court. In a comment given to the media, attorney Blackburn states that the two things have nothing to do with the other. One thing is clear: these cases aren’t slowing down.

Quick Bits: Is Diddy Done For? Murdaugh Sentenced AGAIN! The Judge Is Not Happy With Kohberger's Lawyers.

Use code EmilyBaker50 at https://www.GreenChef.com/EmilyBaker50 to get 50% off, plus 20% off your next two months!On the podcast, I covered Sean 'Diddy' Combs’ most recent lawsuit from Lil' Rod and its connections to the subsequent raids. An arrest was made of his supposed drug mule and there is a high possibility that Diddy will also be arrested in the future. Rumor has it that the feds have been talking to Kefee D. regarding Diddy's possible involvement with the murder of Tupac Shakur and Shug Knight had a message for Diddy from prison.Alex Murdaugh was sentenced to 40 years in prison and ordered to pay over $8.7 million in restitution for federal financial crimes. This is in addition to the two life sentences for the murder of his wife and son and 27 years in prison for state financial crimes. Bryan Kohberger had a new hearing because his lawyers were surveying the residents of Latah County via telephone without the court's knowledge. The prosecution revealed the questions that were asked to the citizens as they believed it violated the non-dissemination order. The judge scheduled a hearing for Wednesday, April 4th to see if they can draft better questions for a new survey. I will be covering that on the channel as well as Tom Girardi's trial, which has been moved to August 6th, 2024.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Four people have sued Diddy and federal agents have since raided his three homes. I wouldn't be surprised if all or some of his accusers have been cooperating with the feds to build a case against Diddy.I go over the second amended complaint filed by Lil' Rod and how his initial filing could have led to the federal investigation. Statements made by Diddy's lawyers and Homeland Security imply a broader operation and I suspect the raid was done to preserve digital evidence of illegal activities in the homes.Although Diddy hasn't been arrested, that doesn't mean he won't be in the future. Brendan Paul was arrested during the raid and is suspected of being Diddy's drug mule. There is a high possibility that Diddy could be charged with Federal RICO charges. Prosecutors may go as far back as 1999 and the infamous Club New York shooting when looking at the RICO charges. Diddy was dating Jennifer Lopez at the time and this may have broader implications.There have also been rumors that Keefe D could be cooperating with the authorities in connection to this investigation. Suge Knight has also recently sent a message to Diddy about the raids and possible future imprisonment.

Quick Bits: New Ruby Franke Details. Will Alex Murdaugh lose his plea deal? Baldwin wants his case dismissed.

Control Body Odor ANYWHERE with @lumedeodorant and get 15% off with promo code EDBQB at LumeDeodorant.com ! #lumepod #adThere was a massive release of videos, photos, and interviews related to the Ruby Franke and Jodi Hildebrandt case, including both women’s arrest and interview videos, interviews with Ruby’s estranged husband Kevin Franke, and her journal.When police arrived to search Jodi’s home, she was already on the phone with her lawyer and kept her lawyer on the phone for a substantial amount of time.  Ruby not only exercised her right to remain silent but mostly simply blinked at law enforcement while looking outraged that they had arrested her.The federal government wants to break its plea deal with Alex Murdaugh ahead of his April 1st, 2024 sentencing on 22 federal financial crimes. Federal Prosecutors had offered Alex Murdaugh a plea deal based on his truthful interviews and disclosures about any criminal activity, where the proceeds of the crimes have gone etc.For that, they would ask that the sentence on the federal crimes run concurrently with the state financial crimes, for which he is already serving 27 years. Since Alex's plea deal will not move forward, the judge will most likely apply an upward variance from the proposed guideline ranger.Alec Baldwin’s attorneys filed over 700 pages in support of their Motion to Dismiss the grand jury indictment, arguing that the prosecution gave inappropriate jury instructions to the grand jury and that the prosecution acted in bad faith when they failed to present exculpatory evidence.The prosecution has extended time to respond and the court hasn’t set a hearing on this yet. However, the trial date in July will be here before you know it. Hannah’s defense made an emergency motion for a new trial and release, in a hearing on March 29, 2024, the court denied both motions and reminded counsel that the sentencing would go forward as scheduled on April 15, 2024.Kouri Richins is now facing 11 charges, including counts of attempted murder, mortgage fraud, insurance fraud, and forgery. The new information brings to light that Kouri had previously tried to poison Eric on Valentine's Day, had an affair, confessed to wanting out of the marriage but couldn't leave because she would be left with nothing under the pre-marital agreement, and had no idea she wasn’t going to be the beneficiary of Eric’s estate.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podsights - https://podsights.com/privacyPodscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy
