Ep 2: Tossed Confessions, Videotaped Murders & More
Welcome back to Courtroom Confidential with Joshua Ritter! This week, I analyze the following updates in headline-making true crime cases from across the country:
• #ChadDoerman, Ohio man accused of shooting his three children, asks a judge to toss his confession to the murders, saying his Miranda rights were not read in full and that detectives questioned him for hours without a lawyer present.
• South African man #BrianStevenSmith found guilty of 14 charges for the murders of two Alaskan Native women.
• #JamesCrumbley, the father of Oxford High School Shooter #EthanCrumbley, in court for a hearing that revolved around which witnesses will testify in his manslaughter trial.
Share your thoughts and questions on these cases in the comments!
