I feel the sentence is too severe, although he lost his life, it is an awful case. I wonder did the marriage counseling pick the mind too much, she went to Al anon and he went to AA. Those groups aren't for everybody, people can sometimes feed into the anger, in a group of people. They might be still married had they left well enough alone, and struggled on in their own way, the groups might have aggravated the situation instead of helping them. I feel very bad for her, she loved him, no matter what way we look at it, he was her husband, and she didn't want to lose him. She snapped, it wasn't premeditated. So so sad. Rest in peace on his soul.
I am glad she was found guilty. I feel so bad for the man who died and my condolences to his family! I really feel for his children. I hope is children will live happy and safe lives.
If your spouse or partner cheated on you, it’s best to separate because we’re just human, we can always FORGIVE but our brains CAN’T ALWAYS FORGET and everytime you get into an argument, that cheating incident will always be brought up and things can get heated just like what happened in this case.
I agree, as much as we did not end our marriage, the relationship never was the truly healed, we stayed together for the family, but now as they are all grown, we are left with a very, very, superficial relationship. Would, with hindsight, been wiser to have gone in different directions, in our case, over 40 years ago. 😢😢 makes me feel very sad,
@@hersheyssmith2104 not sure somebody said it in a comment. I think the affair was over for more than a year & she still harassed the other woman & this woman never contacted him again after he broke off the affair.
My heart breaks for the children. They are young adults now but they have to live without their father and now the mother is going to prison... may the kids find some for of peace and healing during this tragic loss....
It seems to me that she could not get over the affair and it ate her up on a daily basis until she snapped in the most awful way. They should have separated and spared their children from hearing all of the arguments etc and now they have sadly lost their Dad. They have lost their Mum in a way too. I haven't seen any tears from her. She is so bitter and extremely selfish in my opinion.
She’s a narcissist, they don’t cry, they believe they are above the law. They believe in their delusional world that they can get away with anything but they can’t. She put her children through this trauma, I pray they get therapy and can move on with their lives; I know they knew she was guilty from the beginning, they were forthcoming and honest. Sad story all together.😢
@@jackie_byfaith Yes, I believe you are correct. I feel so sad for the children. Hopefully they have some loving family members to help them through this tragic time.
It's good to see she was found guilty. It was her stupidity to not divorce Michael as her anger over the affair and his drinking continued before the stabbing.
I have watch so many cases. This is the first time the lawyer didn't like pat their client on the back or shoulder some sort of cammpassion after getting charged for murder even she agrees with the jury.
Ricci and Benefield GUILTY!!! Thank God Americans are coming back to their senses. Now we have a few left: Adelson and Read….justice for men murdered by women hiding behind DA victims. I hope this sends a strong message.
I followed the Benefield case and wasn’t sure how that would turn out. I feel sorry for her little girl. I’m pretty sure that Adelson will go down, and maybe Wendi in time. Not sure about Karen Read. Kouri Richins I’m sure will get the guilty verdict. So much going on 😢
@@maanmohammad8459 i have seen your other posts...you are anti karen read. the other two ARE guilty...karen read is NOT. watch the case...corrupt cops and DA.FEDS ARE INVOLVED. SHE WAS framed!
This whole I was abused defense by females who murder their spouses is getting old. It’s a go to. It’s unfortunate for the real abuse victims because this is turning into a little girl who cried wolf nonsense
Ashley Benefield should have been guilty as well of 2nd degree murder. This woman, although she is wrong, should have also not have gone through being cheated on by her husband.
WARNING: Yes. She murdered that man. For sure. Its so sad and sickening that anybody feels they have that right to take anyone's life. I feel so badly for these kids. One rotten apple does spoil the whole bunch.
Ive seen cheating/affairs cause people I love turn into people I would never recognize. Complete 180 and ruined them. They can forgive but so hard to forget. This women should have divorced if she couldn't forgive. Instead she let it eat her up ruin her family and do the unimaginable. Jury got it right.
.one message that is clearly not coming out of this murder case is this: ..even if you are a victim of Domestic Violence, you don't get to be the Judge, the Jury AND the executioner . .
I wonder what actress Christina Ricci would think when a woman who murdered her husband that almost has the same name as except Christina is the actress and Christine is a husband killer.
I can't believe SO many comments about Don't cheat. How about LEAVE instead of living with it then?!!! SHE could have walked away from him instead of trying to "work it out"!!! IF it's something you can't get over then LEAVE!! No, cheating isn't right but it isn't a death sentence!!! OMG move on then!! She put those kids through this trial for NO REASON but to hurt them more!!
You can see in this situation that the wife was NEVER GOING TO BE ABLE TO ACCEPT THE AFFAIR - No Matter What Corrections The Husband Tried - - To Improve with the Family and Make Amends - - Cheating in a committed relationship is USUALLY A DEAL BREAKING - Not Fixable Occurrence. That Being Said - - Her Inability to Get Past It - - Not Get Therapy For HERSELF and Maybe Even for the Kids - - Her OBSESSION with AGGRESSING and INTRUDING Upon the Normal Boundaries of the Mistress - -Who Was As Kind About The Issue as Possible and DID NOT DRAG OUT THE AFFAIR - - Was a TELL THAT SOMETHING BAD WAS IN THE PIPELINE - - This Was NEVER GOING TO END WITH EVERYONE GETTING ALONG AND MOVING ON. I appreciate the pain this wife felt - - that is not however acceptable reason to abuse the other woman and then act out with violence toward the husband.

Please don't ask Julie Grant about her opinion. She is as biased as they come. We all remember what you said about Karen Read BEFORE Karen Read's trial began, Julie Grant. I will never trust your words again.
Welp now those kids don’t have either parent. Hopefully they have aunts and uncles but it definitely won’t be the same especially on holidays or their birthdays.
SHE MURDER HER HUSBAND CUZ SHE CANT FORGIVE HIM FOR HIS AFFAIR MOM I WENT THROUGH EXPERIENCE LIKE U BUT I HAVE 3 CHILDREN I CHOICE TO DIVORCE HIM FOR THE LOVE OF MY CHILDREN HAVE NO REGRET
That's her husband's name,who she viciously murdered. I wish these women; Lori Vallow, Leticia, Benfield would be required to drop their murdered husbands/children would be required to drop the victims' names.
It's a wonder how often a family household husband... actually sticks with a spouse as Christine's described... and especially a husband of whom's willing to cheat on their wife at that.... It was mentioned that Michael appeared to have marks on his face on however many multiple occasions.... That said, you'd think at some point that he would've developed at least something of a premonition in order to see such attacks coming, but on the other hand that is... it would easy to see how he'd be vulnerable to being actually physically attacked, if he himself was indeed also engaging in an attack of his own and absorbed a strike or scratch in the midst.. Michael at least appears well capable of deflecting and subsuing the worst of physically provoking advances made by Christine, but ultimately the claim is that she even successfully surprised him with a knife.... Could be anyways, good question still on my part in all. However, lastly, it's a wonder if an individual performing a protective "community" based occupation (such as fire, police crew or even such as military or political figures for that matter) would have more incentive to cover their bad deeds up for the sake of their reputation.
The poor blonde defense attorney’s face turns so red. I have the same kind of skin and skin always gives away emotions. I didn’t watch this trial so have no opinion.
Murderer......yes that's probably the way many people in Iraq and Afghanistan see Americans. Will they ever get justice ? I know a bit off subject but compare their trauma to the people of Iraq and Afghanistan.
@@jesusisgod4992exactly ruining your life over a man.. not worth it..there is 1 out of a thousand men out there that CLD have treated her better...but not worth killing for....heck no!!
#CourtTV Did the jury get it right?
Catch up on the FACTS here: www.courttv.com/tag/christine-ricci/?
She never got over the affair. I think he drank to cope. Awful situation. Right decision by jury
I feel the sentence is too severe, although he lost his life, it is an awful case. I wonder did the marriage counseling pick the mind too much, she went to Al anon and he went to AA. Those groups aren't for everybody, people can sometimes feed into the anger, in a group of people.

The poor children!
When jealousy eats you up….and you end up murdering as a result. Those poor kids…..
The camera is always in the wrong place.
Prayers for those children stay strong together may god send them positive and good health in life❤❤❤
It is so much easier to walk away
Sometimes the abuser simply doesn’t allow you to “walk away”
To me watching this judgment being handed down, looked like the female defence lawyer was more guilty than Christine Ricci.
Lol I saw that too
Great to see Matt getting studio time and not out in the weather. I like his demeanor and professionalism 😊
Agree and such a calming presence
Justice Served, Amen.
I am glad she was found guilty. I feel so bad for the man who died and my condolences to his family! I really feel for his children. I hope is children will live happy and safe lives.

Did she not cheat on him years ago, i think somebody said that?

Another psycho is waiting.
She didn't flinch!

I see what you did there you sly little dog you 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👻🪑
Sad situation all around. Poor kids!
Honestly, what I take away is DO NOT CHEATTTT!!
And, IF you feel like CHEATING, just LEAVE!! It's that easy!!
Same
Don’t KILL
@tayd.7373 Well, duh lol.
I thought it was the blonde lady who was found guilty, camera aimed on her, admittedly i hadn't been following this case.
I did as well
Me as well didn't watch this one
Same, lol😂
Same 🤦♀️
Same here 😂 . I’m sure she asked not to be on camera
HEY JULIE GRANT...WATCHA GONNA SAY WHEN KAREN READ IS FINALLY VINDICATED???!!..HUH GIRL?!

Why bring a case to trial that can't be won?
Rage and deception do not go together why did he tell her
Confessing to adultery is not wise. I think to confess to God and be faithful.
What a stupid way to read the verdict

Yessss, I’m happy they were both found guilty.

Why would you say that she doesn’t have right to a trial and judge will hold that against her
I just lost the love of my life and these women killing their husbands left and right as if it’s a norm nowadays.
I’m so sorry for your loss 😢❤
Why was the camera zeroed in on the defense attorney?
Those poor kids😢
I hope they have support
Right
Hi everyone from Jerusalem israel
Stay safe 🙏
Be safe 🙏 ❤️

Quite dif from Ashleigh Benefield?
What will her likely sentence be, 30 years?
Possibly 30 and will be out in 15 years on good behaviour.
@@hersheyssmith2104 hope she gets some therapy in jail, i think she needs it.
