01x04 - Brandi and Michelle

[bunniefuu]

I can't really remember a sad day
with her.

They were just this big, happy family

that went out and did family
activities

and everything was just amazing.

Even though it's cold,
it's still beautiful to be here.

On April 7th, 2018 they were all at
home

and Brandi was making breakfast
for her son Ryland.

He described the most perfect
marriage,

the most perfect relationship
in the world.

In this case we didn't have an
eyewitness, which we rarely do.

So it was very important
to piece together all the evidence,

the video evidence was sort of like,
you know, as an eyewitness to events

So people typically
stay in a*usive relationships

because there is a gradual
shifting baseline.

The oldest was Kyle, Demi, Brandon,
and Lacie and the youngest was Lia.

Michelle Pearson makes a 999 call
from a mobile phone.

By the time this is passed
from the BT operator,

because if you think the
evidence is going to

burn up anyway and they won't
catch me,

then this is a good avenue
to get justice in some way.

In this instance, even though the
CCTV was not of good quality,

That feud involved minor crimes
and incidents,

several incidents and retaliation
between the two groups.

so we can see their faces for example
we can see the way they paid,

whether they paid with cash
or with credit cards,

we can see what they purchased
and when that happened.

Today may be the end of the trial

but it is not the end for us as we
may try

to recover and get on with our lives.
