Default Have you ever been hooked on a televised courtroom trial ?!?

I was seriously addicted to the OJ Simpson, OscarP and the Johnny Depp trials


Any thoughts ( on televised trials not my viewing habits )

…not just a trial as such…but Making a Murderer/…the whole story of Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey, was something I became a bit obsessed/possessed with when I watched the documentary series…scouring the internet for clues to be able to solve it all and know for sure…I don’t know if you’ve ever watched that, Zizu…?…I think that you might like if if you haven’t already seen it…

You should check out "Rottweiler Investigations" on YT. Have loads of interrogations and court cases on there all obtained through FOIA requests.

…also, I think the American made ones especially…(…sorry Maru…)..have lots and lots and lots of repetition…although they generally end on a wow moment to make you want to watch the next one straight away…they do also have lots of draggy bits and don’t keep it moving/…which they could while still keeping all of the details in…I wasn’t aware of that one, so I’ll check it out, thank you…

Because they are so young, if it were on TV I wouldn't watch it either, just read about it

of course I followed those high profile trials but not on TV

I remember the Michael Jackson trial being on TV in 2005. It seemed like a pretty big deal at the time.

Can't remember his name, Chris something, but i watched a documentary about him on youtube, so not a trial. But he was the American guy who killed his wife, then his 2 young daughters. Just utterly chilling. He was so calm, cool throughout the interviews and police cam. Had a lovely home, in what seemed like a lovely area, and 2 angels for daughters. Yet does something like that?!! He was having an affair, fine, that happens. But why not just leave your wife and kids, not have to kill them. Sick. I couldn't sleep that night after watching. I tend to steer clear of these type of docs now. Especially the ones that jazz up docs with a more entertaining like aspect.

In saying all that, 24 Hours in Police Custody starts again on Sunday. That's usually always an interesting watch.

I'll tune into the trials when Trump wins next year. Especially the Epstein Island trials. We all witnessed that they conducted Maxwell's trial in private. They can't stay private for much longer. Especially if the public start to demand it. We just need to wake up the establishment storm troopers and bring them back to the people's side.

Do you think Billy Boy Clinton was a regular visitor to Epstein's sex island? I do.

Think? I know. Everyone knows. At the very least 27 visits to the Island. It's logged.

I followed Depp trial the whole way through, as well as Daryl Brooks trial. A few others I've followed in part or in passing.

…Chris Watts..?…his wife, Shannon was pregnant also at the time he killed her…I can’t recall all of the details but I’m sure that ‘his defence’ was that Shannon had killed the girls so he had killed her…he didn’t just have an affair, if I recall…he’d met up with several people that he’d met online also…/I’m not sure if it was dating sites…one of them was a male escort…for me the psychology as well is of those who become infatuated with similar life sentence prisoners in a romantic way, in knowing the extent and capacity of their deceptions/lies…
