It seems she preyed on a widower who had money and she wanted a child. Horrible. She may be pretty - but for God's sake. Inner goodness is far more important.
I think mom was totally in on it with her… If there was such abuse, why is she going to visit him with a U-Haul full of stuff and let her mother go away from the house? Why on earth would you say goodbye if it was so torturous and horrible… So disgusting to have your child stand out side of a courthouse not really knowing anything about anything especially the law, especially the truth…
Punished for what, Mrs. Grandma? SurVIVing?? I'm sorry, but this is a shame. Both of his daughters deserved a lifetime of their father's love and support.
She led him believe she wanted to "get back together" and had him bring a uhaul, but really she's trying to get away from him? That makes no sense. You don't tell someone you want to move back in together and have them bring a uhaul if you're scared of them. Coincidence she was losing in the case too? Then she doesn't call the Police when he shows up? And her mom and daughter leave, and leave him ALONE with her? Def sus so far.
I've seen numerous documentaries on this case and there's something about this woman that's a bit off, i don't think the jury are going to warm to her. Great show Vinnie👏👏
Having her baby girl hold up that self serving sign is emotional and mental abuse for the child. She needs to be turned into Children's protective Services.
Self defense! Seriously! She planned this from the time she started dating him and realized he was a recent widow. He was lonely…desperate and thirty years older and had money. She fit the bill. By the time he realized how insincere she was, she had her claws into him too deeply. Reversing his vasectomy was his biggest mistake. Now, he has to pay her for at least the next eighteen years. The “rub” was, she did not expect him to put up a fight. She is a master at manipulation. Even the daughter is siding with her. Heartless narcissist.
She allegedly lured him to his demise. She wasn't thinking rationally about the children!😢His stalking could have been a misunderstood attempt to repair their relationship?😢
If Ashley is so afraid for her life from this Man, Douglas Benefield, why would she put herself with him alone in the house?? To pack up her belongings in the U haul?? She couldn't find someone else to help her move ?? Good Grief 🙄
Hi Vinnie Politan today is Tuesday and I'm watching the Black Swan 🦢 Trial. Judging by her appearance, Ashley, I'd say She's mental.... She's putting on quite a performance in this trial that she's a damsel in distress. Oh my. No make-up. Bags under her Eyes. Looks haggard compared to her pretrial attire and appearance where she dressed stylish and postured with great confidence.
Her daughter is 6 yrs old and hardly competent to make up her own mind if she should be standing outside the courthouse as a poster Child for her mother.... This is outrageous.
I know you're not talking about the Madeline sotto case I just would like to say.I think that the mother has something to do with it.I think that the mother was taking all the pictures for her boyfriend
I know next to nothing about it. Plan on listening during work hours, so I will easily miss stuff. Thankful I can catch up on the True Crime RU-vid crowd.
How long had he had a vasectomy because, I thought, the longer it is the harder it is to impregnate someone after it’s reversed. I suppose medicine has totally advanced in this area.
We definitely need a DNA test on Emerson. Ashley was having affairs/scamming other men while married to Doug. She was even engaged to another man while still married. D.Beatty are you the baby daddy???
So the judge who is allowing the trial to go forward jumped to a conclusion? No, clearly there is enough evidence to try and convict her. We are the public opinion and clearly our opinions don’t count. As a survivor of DV I don’t believe her for a second and she is guilty and will be found guilty
