Veronica Butler was going through a custody battle with Tifany Adams who is her children's paternal grandmother. The children's father was in rehab during the time of the disappearance. Jilian Kelley was the person who was authorized to supervise visits.Subsequently, Tifany Adams and her boyfriend Tad Cullum, as well as married couple Cole and Cora Twombly were arrested on April 13th, 2024, and held without bond. The charges include 1st-degree murder, kidnapping, and conspiracy to murder in the first degree.Cora's teenage daughter, CW, bravely told OSBI that she overheard the group's plans for the homicide, the existence of 2 burner phones and that she was forced to clean the truck after the murders and the previous attempts on Butler's life. With a considerable amount of digital evidence, we'll see if this tragic case goes to trial.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 prosecution and defense paint different pictures of what happened on the night of his death.The prosecution claims that Karen and John had problems in their relationship and that she ran him over with her car while drunk, before fleeing the crime scene. The defense states that Karen dropped off her boyfriend at a party with his work colleagues and that it is more likely that he was attacked in the home before being left outside in the blizzard to die. Karen also claims she is being set up by the cops as a cover-up for their actions. A Federal investigation is also currently being conducted but has not yet concluded. In contrast to the prosecution's evidence, Federal investigators say that they do not believe John O'Keefe was hit by a car.The jury selection begins Tuesday, April 16th, 2024, and I will be covering it gavel to gavel!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

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

This suit was referenced in Lil Rod’s lawsuit, with a note that a suit would be forthcoming. The suit's allegations stem from incidents on the Holiday Yacht trip that are also detailed in Lil’ Rod’s suit. 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.

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.

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: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacyChartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

His team has filed for dismissal of the grand jury indictment, arguing that the prosecution gave improper jury instructions, acted in bad faith, and failed to present exculpatory evidence.It also came to light that Baldwin was offered the same plea deal provided to first assistant director Dave Halls, but the prosecution withdrew the offer ten days before Baldwin’s deadline to accept. The court has since ordered and ruled on the proper instructions for the Grand Jury.I am interested to see how the prosecution responds to this voluminous motion.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

It is also revealed that the prosecution offered Bladwin the same plea deal given to Dave Halls - six months of unsupervised probation and a misdemeanor charge.  But in a curious turn of events, the prosecution withdrew the offer 10 days before the offer expired and indicted him.Hannah Gutierrez has filed a new trial motion because of a New Mexico Supreme Court decision unrelated to her case. The prosecution responded to the motion and a hearing has been set for Friday, March 29th. I will cover it on my long-form channel.Kouri Richins’ warrant was unsealed.
