Judge Throws Book at Convicted Family Murderer Anthony Todt

- The FL v. Anthony Todt Trial came to an end on Thursday. The Physical Therapist was on trial for allegedly murdering his family and was found guilty on all charges by the jury. Judge Keith Carsten threw the book at Todt with multiple life sentences for the murder of his wife, three kids, and family dog.
A man is on trial for allegedly murdering his wife and kids, and killing the family dog. Anthony Todt, 44, stands trial in Osceola County, Florida. Opening statements are scheduled to begin Monday, April 11, at 9 am ET.
Todt, a physical therapist who worked in Connecticut and lived in the Sunshine State, allegedly killed wife Megan Todt, 42, as well as their three children Alec Todt, 13, Tyler Todt, 11, and Zoe Todt, 4. He even slew the family dog Breezy.
Federal authorities had been seeking him at the time, saying he charged Medicaid for unworked hours. Naturally, a fraud case pales in comparison to the grisly state prosecution for four counts of first-degree murder, and one count of cruelty to animals. With that in mind, federal prosecutors filed a motion to dismiss without prejudice because they did not want to stand in the way of Florida officials. They can refile later.
The family also faced eviction from their home in a case filed Dec. 22, 2019, just weeks before deputies found defendant Todt at the residence with the bodies.

Investigators say Anthony Todt confessed to the killings in interviews shortly after his arrest. Though a judge suppressed an early portion of that because a detective failed to give a proper Miranda warning, the admission of guilt is ultimately making it to trial because Todt allegedly kept on talking to authorities, repeating the confession in a follow-up interview.
Associate Medical Examiner Jennifer Nara found the deaths to be homicide, though she could not determine “the exact mechanism of death,” and had to rely on the alleged confession and other circumstances in her decision.
Defendant Todt walked back that confession. He blamed his wife for the killings in a letter to his father, according to the document obtained by The Orlando Sentinel from the prosecutor’s office.

Every time I read the term "throws the book" I expect to see somebody throwing a book. Then it doesn't happen. And I am sad.
I thought that’s what it was I was trying to look through the comments and when he threw it at him 😂
Me as well 🤫😂
I only came here to watch the book being thrown
I was hoping someone said in which minute that would happen.
Literally what I clicked to see, “every time” yes because I know my mind has done this more than once knowing what I’m going to get in the end.
The fact his own lawyer told him to shut up says a lot. Those poor kids. 😢
I can't even imagine??what this woman indured .in the hands of this Man?? Totally control freak?? Even her ant was talking about how he just calling, calling. Making sure he knows where she is. Talking about she is sick and she needs help?? Her family is with her.
He is narcissistic, disrespectful, manipulative, diviened, rude, selfish, self-centered, violent, dangerous, sickeningly vile, evil 😈.
He didn't care 1 bit about her. She can't even look out the window.
Without him right behind her.
He’s a total control freak. Can’t handle being the one not making decisions.
What time in the video?
@@govindagovindaji4662 did you watch the video? You can't miss it...twice
@@ellybean5868 didn't have time enough to to watch entire thing; but found it.
This guy didnt even realize that every time he spoke about how much he had to do for his wife due to her illness, it highlighted a clear motive for her murder.
In all the footage of the trial he made his wife out to be an unhinged invalid who thought the end times were coming. She had arrythmia ( irregular heartbeat) & hyper thyroidism which are v v treatable & according to him, 'exacerbations' (handy strategic vagueness tactic) from having had Lyme Disease years ago. Yet this lady says she's active with the school, goes to lunch, days out etc. Every single answer he gave turned into a rambling rant about how great he was & how unhinged she was: & when repeatedly asked to keep answers concise he got absolutely furious & sarcastic. He killed them because he was being investigated for massive financial fraud , claiming health insurance payments for treatments he hadn't given.
@@sarahholland2600 the medical examiner in the autopsy said that Megan wasn’t sick.
@@houiemdandani81 Exactly ❤
@@houiemdandani81 I believe that. If anything he was poisoning her.
Exactly 🙄 He was always on REPEAT TO 🤣
WHAT DOUCHBAG
I am so glad the judge said, "And for the murder of the family dog, Breezy, I sentence you to one year, the maximum allowed," instead of "For the animal cruelty I sentence you to a year." He mentioned that the dog was the *family dog* and he mentioned that his sentence is the maximum allowed (otherwise it would have been more). I really adore this judge.
And he made that consecutive too lmao if for some reason he EVER got out for the murder charges he would have to serve that one year lmao
I’m glad Breezy got small sense of justice
If you're a serious dog lover like I am, it really hurts to see how lovably cute Breezy was.
Felt worse about the dog. What a POS.
How petty this is what you get when you humanise animals. The loss of human adolescent lives meant more I mean a year is a walk in the park which he's already served 🙄
The lady saying how Anthony kept calling the wife's phone when she was having a "girlfriend day" and then called that woman's phone, speaks volumes!! Controlling behaviour.
Just like the prosecutor said in her closing arguments.
Absolutely correct.
YES!
It was scared Megan would somehow find out the Feds were about to charge the wacko for Medicaid fraud he gaslighted her and family for years about how much money he was actually earning besides stealing over 100 grand from Medicaid he also had 20high interest loans from the bank and all types of loan companies he found on internet he signed Megan's signature she knew nothing they were gonna be evicted from house and condo he was stressed to the max the wacko murdered his family so they would never find out his misdeeds that they were stone broke and he was gonna prison for Medicaid fraud after confessing lying about Megan participation in the murders he sitting in prison before trial he thought of the defense of blaming Megan for the murders and her own killing the jury was not aware of the Medicaid fraud charges although the court knew it couldn't be bought up in the murder case
Red Flag, classic control freak
Blaming the victims until the bitter end. This guy's a gem.
When your own attorney is like “dude, this ain’t helping you. Sit down & shut up.” 😂 What a clown.
He legit had to stand up twice to tell him to shut up. He’s scared bc he knows he did something psycho.
So cringe and multiple times that happened! I haven't observed tons of trials but that seems highly unusual. Guessing it's so he can't later appeal on basis of ineffective counsel.
Lawyer is like dude I got another case I have another case I can win
And then he still continues to babble word salad. I like how after he got done the judge immediately started sentencing him with the strictest penalties possible lol. Like, no dude, your BS doesn’t work here.
His male defense attorney is so fed up 😂 they’re gonna have a great time with him in prison 🥰
The fact that he really thought he had a chance is scary. His poor wife and kids and the family dog, never understood why they just don’t take their own lives and leave everyone else alone😢
Hi Zoe, what flag is that?
No, the scary thing is that he DID have a chance. One male juror was a holdout, who was convinced Todt was telling the truth and had a clear bent towards misogyny. The rest of the jury, who actually don't have oatmeal for brains, were only able to convince him into a guilty verdict by saying the kids deserved justice, and that Todt can appeal his sentence.
@@WobblesandBean sexism is the only explanation for that because no reasonable intelligent person would buy a word of the drivel he spewed
I think those are the most selfish people.
They can't accept their life, that they want to ruin everyone's else's.
Right
Dude... you weren't convincing yesterday, you're not convincing today. You're still guilty.
Carney I Agree
Oops Catherine I agree
Can’t believe he’s not embarrassed
Yeah an innocent person would not rant on and on like that.
He was used to getting away with everything i guess, and his family put up with him, now no one else wants to do anything with him.
OMG IT IS INCREDIBLE that he believes that anyone believes him or that he can convince a judge that he didn’t. He’s truly THAT narcissistic. How did his wife even tolerate this man?!
that's what I always wonder. What was he like before? Did he have some of this hidden and it only comes out after? Or was he this full of himself to his wife and kids? I can't imagine what life was like with him, those poor kids and his poor wife... and the dog too.
I hope Tonn Tonn is "VERY RESTING COMFORTABLY" too!!! Great speech Tonn Tonn!!! Superb!!!
He’s a good guy, his wife and kids deserved it.
@@Ruder6163 Pathetic troll. Get a life
@@carrielange2692 I totally agree with you. We will never ever know what his little family were going through on average. My heart breaks for them all. I can safely assume he was an absolute coercively controlling nightmare.
I love how his attorney kept trying to shut him up. He's like, "stop delaying the inevitable, I need to go home".
That final statement is sickening, you've already been caught, time to act like a man and make peace with what you did and who you affected... not throw a pity party for yourself
He is a True Narcissist
And throwing his wife that he murdered under the bus
Just like Nicholas Cruz
He DID act like a man!
if he could he would probebly not be in that position
"My kids, my wife were everything to me."
Anthony Todt's exact words, and Chris Watts' exact words also. Apparently it's a very dangerous thing for a family to be "everything" to a father these days.
If the father is a psychopath, yes.
@@mojota6938 The question is: What does a father mean by "everything"? A boyfriend can mean that about a girlfriend, but if she cheats on him, in his mind that "everything" deserves to die. So "everything" can mean everything worth loving or everything worth destroying.
If that were true he wouldn't have been commiting medicaid fraud.
They are just words to narcissistic psychopaths. If you think about it 'my everything' is simple, short and used by these types of men because they convey no feeling or detail. How can someone describe how they love someone when they can't. I'm sure if someone asked them how they love themselves, they could detail and describe it perfectly.
@@craigfinnegan8534 So true, but I think context is important and the context here is that these men who killed heir families are now trying to get away with murder in the courtroom. Their reasons for making such dramatic statements aren't because they believe them. Killers often make these statements, and it's always to deceive the people prosecuting them for their crimes.
I tend to believe that most people who make that claim under different circumstances probably mean it in the way we imagine they should.
He’s truly disgusting, putting his wife down and lying about her behaviour even when he’s been convicted of murdering her.
If he was any kind of man he'd do the right thing...
@@stevetrivago Troll
Yes, he is disgusting for lying like that and denying the killings of his wife and kids.
@@Manu_Lemoine_FR have you seen the crime scene photos? If she did it then what were the red bed restraints used for that are tied to the master bed frame? Also zip ties???
how could you even think about killing someone you loved thats just not human
Megan was my neighbor from the time I was born until her and Tony met, went to college and moved. Her mother is still alive but is a complete nut job. I mean, known around our area as the scariest, meanest, worst teacher in the history of our school system. I could always hear her yelling at Al and Megan from our house. She drove her husband who was my dads best friend to hang himself… she drove Megan and Tony to Florida… and she didn’t even surface when this happened. Tony and Megan helped me out after I got really sick in 2018. They were always amazing people and this was a huge shock to his professional community and her friends. Megan was the most polite, loving, talented person. An amazing tennis player, and the best babysitter and friend a neighbor could have. I can’t speak for the kids, they had moved prior to having them. But I grew up with Megan, she walked me to and from the house/bus stop every day for 10 years…. I’m sorry Megan…………. I am so so sorry. Worst of all, three innocent children’s lives were cut short. What an absolute monster you are Tony.
Sounds like she met someone like her mother. What a shame. She sounded wonderful. Thank you for sharing 💛
His family was on the cusp of discovering his fraudulent charges, he was going to prison eventually for those crimes. This type of narcissist would rather take out his whole family rather than having them see him as a failure. It’s sickening. Also this piece of crap continued to blame his wife for killing her babies, that’s the worst thing of all of this 😢
May he rot in prison
I’m glad the Judge sentences him “For the Murder of the family dog” and doesn’t just say animal cruelty.
I really appreciated that.
Same here. Dogs' lives matter every bit as much as human lives, in my opinion. I know people will say I'm crazy for saying that, but it's my honest belief. They are angels sent from heaven to be our companions and they deserve respect.
@@jtstevenson81
Not crazy at all.
I have ALWAYS felt that animals are equally as important as humans.
The belief that we're superior is, too me, a religious construct.
Christians are told that humans are the keepers of the garden, this gives us the (wrong) idea that we can do whatever we want and rule over "Creation"... it's wrong.
Sorry I'm ranting...
Lol..
Cheers!
@@abelis644 Totally agreed! To me it comes down to a very simple question: Does intelligence, or lack thereof, determine how much a person is worth? It seems to me that the obvious answer is "No", and therefore we have no right to claim that our superior intelligence makes us worth more than animals.
Thank you and God bless you
Judge, for sentencing him for
the murder of Breezy, the dog.
Selfish disgusting human. I don't think there could be a worse crime than to betray your entire family in such a way. And then to continue to slander your wife's name after you killed her? How cruel can you be? Such a sad tragedy. My heart goes out to all those who knew the victims and suffer their loss.
When he did that I instantly thought of Chris Watts who was arrested for killing his 2 little kids and pregnant wife- blaming his wife for murdering the little girls then he said he killed the wife in a fit or rage because she murdered them. It was all BS. He killed them all because he was having an affair and didn’t want the married life anymore. It takes a special kind of evil to do this AND blame it on the wife!!
@@kateashby3066
Me too. A year later too.
@@kateashby3066 How sad that Todt is way worse than Chrissy Watts. At least Watts finally pled guilty. He didn’t get on the stand and further destroy his wife’s legacy after he murdered her. And he didn’t kill Dieter! Tony Todt even blamed Megan for the fraud. I thought I went down the rabbit hole with the Watts case. Sooo many unanswered questions with the Todt case.
I'm so glad Dieter is with the Frankie and his dogs.
Poor dog was traumatized by the horrific acts of one of his owners.
The fact that your picture is Scar makes this comment even better than it already is.
The aunt seems like such a sweetheart. I'm so sad for her.
It's always nice to hear about the victims behavior it to means more than remains. Bless all affected by this unnecessary tragedy Meghan her children and Breezy to be murdered by this POS 🙏 💔 😢
Yeah...
@Burr Anderson I'm sorry for your loss. It doesn't get better it gets different. And I am sure that you loved each other completely. But I am also sure as bad as your bad days were you never thought of murdering her. Nor would she have taken your life. Have a peaceful day sir. From Ireland 🇮🇪
@Burr Anderson My sincerest condolences. You lose your treasure and this jerk kills his. I don't understand it either 😕
@I Am The Walrus My deepest sympathy to you. A lifetime together. 🙏
There's never a death penalty around when you need one.
IKR!!
Honestly surprised Florida, of all places, doesn't have the death penalty. It just seems like a given that they would.
@@Sam-Cain or Texas they don't hesitate. Even former President Bush while Governor laughed at Karla Raye plea
I agree
@@Sam-Cain florida is notoriously a dearth penalty state
Any father who came home and found his family murdered would have immediately called the police. But instead he lives in the house for weeks surrounded by their decomposing bodies. I am glad that nobody believed his ridiculous stories but him going to jail for life is too good for him after what he did to his beautiful family. I hope someone in the jail gives him what he deserves.
Oh they will. Baby killers don’t last long. He’ll have a “ buddy”
Exactly. I agree.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Usually, if they are convicted and had a trial with this magnitude of media attention, they will be placed in protective custody. Not forever, but for quite a while. This is about the worst crime imaginable and considering what an arrogant loudmouth he is, I’m certain the other inmates will have a go at him. 🤞
@@AdrianaLaCerva126, sadly his type gets protected in prison .....they always put baby killers together.
I like that the judge sits motionless as a statue staring at him as he spews his bs the perfect attitude
It's appalling this sociopath right up to the last minute thinks he can gaslight the memory of the wife he murdered, and try to manipulate this judge. I hope he gets what he really deserves when he's locked up, prison justice.
Man, I'm so angry after watching everything from this trial. I'm furious that he tried to malign and accuse his wife after he murdered her. I looked up photos of her and the family and they looked like the sweetest people.
The FBI should have arrested him the day they raided his practice. If they had taken him into custody when they had the chance his family would still be alive
You're right Megan had no ideal what was going on with their finances they were broke about to be evicted from house and condo besides the Medicaid fraud he had about 20 high interest he found on internet poor Megan and family he gaslighted them for years he killed them so they wouldn't find out he wasn't the big shot therapist earning hundreds of thousands after sitting in prison for the 2 yrs he thought up the blame the Megan story he's a evil cold-blooded nasty creature
oh wow, i didn't even think of that, you're right! i wonder how long he'd have been put away for. i wonder if she'd have divorced him. i wonder what those children would be accomplishing now.
The way he acted so smug when questioned made me want to scream. Who did he think he was fooling?
@@zubetp From what I hear, it would have been *at least* two years in prison.
He is just stuck in a narcissistic loop...even his attorney stood up twice to tell him that his pleading to the judge was making it worse. He is a total nutjob.
He even said they was seperated. He said they was going to reconcile but thats his tail i am sitting on mine
They was not going to reconcile thats why he killed the whole family except for his nasty self
He necer fell down the stairs he was sitting at the bottom when they came in. More lies fr teletubbie orange man
As insane as he is to commit these murders, it's beyond crazy to watch him shake his head at the verdict. He deserves everything he gets.
"This is not helping you". One of many times he didn't listen to his attorney.
Not a Doubt in my mind.
and worse
This Is why mental health is important. What tragedy did this man go through in his life to cause him to do such a heinous thing.
@@Foenem521 I was thinking earlier: what are/were his parents like?
Omg the way he just went on and on and on was insane. His lawyer had to interrupt him more then once to tell him to stop 🙄
The transition from "boooo hoooo I did not do this, sir!!!😢" ... to, about 40 seconds later... " YOU ARE A DESTROYER OF WORLDS" is just hilarious to me😆
The way he sits there shaking his head during sentencing. He even killed the dog! This guy is DANGEROUS.
I respect the judge for staying so level.
OMG HE killed the DOG ??
Astute observation.
Sadly killers only call about themselves , The fact he wants to appeal the sentence shows everything
he shakes his head because he's innocent too but why can't he conceive?
He will shaking his head when he gets in prison that's for sure that's when he will know what justice means the rat piece of Sh$t.
I like how in the USA that victim statements are allowed
It’s bad when your own lawyer tries to save him, and he still can’t shut-up. He’s just Shameful.
He cannot stop...he loves the sound of his own voice.
He's insanely defensive and he's just grasping at straws at this point. He is disgusting. Despicable and demented. I cannot stand the sight of him.
R.i.p. Megan, Zoe, Tyler and Aleczander...and last but certainly not least, poor Breezy.
Justice is served.

Sad… My ex wife broke my heart when she out of the blue said she fell out of love, and wanted to meet and date other men… I cried all night, then woke up the next morning, and gave her a kiss on the cheek, and told her that I would still be the best father ever for our kids, and I wish her happiness for the rest of her life… Years later, we are both very happy and with another partner. Our kids split their time between us, and are doing very good. Happy and healthy. They opened up, and said they were miserable when we were together as they knew we were not happy… Wow… Moral of the story: If someone falls out of love, MOVE ON… Please… Life gets better.. If you try to stay and it is not working, the kids suffer as well. MOVE ON!
Thank you, Keith. Thank you. You get it. Please be proud to model that for others.
You are a great Dad! I’m so glad you found happiness! I am so glad your kids are good too!
Very smart comment here folks. Pay attention.
Now that is a real man
Preach!!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Omg his fkn rambling statement addressing the court was so hard to listen to. We heard ALL of that in the trial in your testimony on direct. Even his lawyer was like “the judge can’t overturn the verdict” “this is not helping you”
The judge literally CANNOT take into account deniability at that point. Addressing the court post-verdict is only to convey remorse to be considered by the judge for sentencing. If you’re not remorseful or still maintain innocence, do not address the court. It’s not mandatory and truly does hurt you because remorse/lack of, has an impact on the sentence.
Well done Law&Crime Network for putting this playlist together for the world to watch.
Many channels can not be bothered to even list the trial days in order from start to finish.
Keep up the great work you do on TH-cam 👍🏼
His life was crashing around him with his fraud indictment, his illusion of a perfect family was over, so he killed them all. The ultimate narcissist.
I AGREE.
When these narcissists are confronted by people that really know them, they alienate themselves from them

Horrible to let him blame his wife...makes it so much worse
He learned from Chris Watts.
Thank you so much for showing these trials ….now when I watch it on dateline or 48 hrs I have more information than they can possibly share in a one or two hour episode….best channel ever! 💜🥂
when i watch crime stories with murderers, i always look at their heads and their hands. how could someone conceive such evil then carry it out with their bare hands? horrible just absolutely horrible. my heart goes out to the family
Interrogators watch the hands, too.
Lee watched Watts repeatedly touch his neck; she said later that she knew immediately that his wife was dead and that he strangled her.

You know. Your right. This is a mental issue. No one could do that and survive mentally without extreme sickness.
That was a death penalty case, the Florida court failed to deliver a just sentence
Why didnt florida fry his asz ???
Unbelievable someone could do that, he's educated, imagine being a friend of his. I truly hope he didn't do it. That's insane.
Honestly, I'm still embarrassed by the audacity
At 11:22 did anyone else hear him catch himself after he said "I told her after she die..." Wow man he was catching himself up in his own words.
He got a better judgement than he gave his family, and dog.
The dog? He killed ThE DOG???
@@didymussumydid9726 did you not watch the video?
@@andrew881000 im actually trolling because people seem to consider the killing of a dog to be a relevant moral act, above and beyond the murders of innocent children. it's stunning to me.
@@didymussumydid9726
Uh YEAH SMH
@@didymussumydid9726 yea thats the joke woosh right over your head. Youd be an easy fish to catch taking bait like that
It really makes my skin crawl when someone is found guilty and they use their final court statement to retry their case. They grovel and try to paint themselves as a victim and drone on and on in their own pity party.
Zero remorse
it was a sickening tell into his mindset: me, me, me.. not one tear ... one expressions of sadness for his kids that he butchered...this guy is not a human and deserves to rot in prison
Chandler Halderson did that too
Well I mean what else are you supposed to do lol
Typical narcissist
He knew he was going to prison. He knew they were going to be happy without him. He wasn't going to let them out of his control.
This is outrageous. What did the book do to deserve being thrown?
The book being thrown means he's getting the highest punishment 😂 or in this case he got the highest punishment. Since it's a few months old. There is no book that was actually thrown
Lol clever
It was painful listing to him justify his despicable murderous actions.
How anyone could love this guy and be married to him is simply baffling….he actually looks physically much better now, the way he looked during his interrogation? Absolutely disgusting…..
Narcissists (and psychopaths etc) are actually incredibly nice and charming when you first meet them. You really think they're the nicest person, ever! It's not until it's already too late when their true persona comes out. But it's hard to leave them because they use manipulation and threats to prevent them from leaving.
@@jojobee42 well said! They also often target people who are especially vulnerable
Notwithstanding what he did. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
He looked like the Pillsbury dough boy.
He loved “the Megan “ but he loves himself sooooo much more. I am ecstatic that he talked himself into life in prison!!!!!
My lord. Imagine living to be 95 & 97 years old. Still be married to your love but you’re burying your granddaughter and 3 GREAT GRANDCHILDREN!
Instantly he attacks his wife and makes himself the victim. Just utterly pathetic.
Typical narcissist
you probably havent been married. thats how life goes when you have a partner. you share your life with them, ending it, you blame the other for a lot of crap enduring.
@@khlothostonney5760 that sounds like a toxic mess. Not how being married “actually is.”
@@drew7515 what is it actually?? im not god to know, you tell me. i just base this on my 30 years of reading, viewing, experiencing human relationship. if you know anything else, let me know, thanks.
@@khlothostonney5760 my husband and I share blame. We apologise to eachother. We pull eachother up on mistakes and guide eachother. What you have explained is toxicity. I've been in toxic relationships as well. But its not healthy or normal to categorise all relationships in that way
Anyone else get a small satisfaction that they finger printed him in the courtroom in front of all those he impacted by his actions. Strength to Megan's family for their loss.
Yes me!!
Oh yeah…me too!
Me. Can you imagine poor little Zoey having this monster roll on top of her and kill her. And he is bragging it only took 3 to for minutes for her to stop strugling but he laid on to of her for 15 minutes. That in its self should be enough to give him death
Didn't he admit to killing his kids and now he says he wasn't there.
He did admit it but then said he only admitted to it to protect her… even though she’s gone.
He admitted to killing them, then said he was there when she killed them and herself. Now he wasn’t even there? This guy is the biggest POS that I’ve ever seen!
@@catgiles3268 there are no words for a man like this.
I would've kept yelling "objection your honor" while he was speaking so he could snap!
Thank you Jury, Judge and Prosecutor. This sick man will spend the rest of his life in prison. We have justice for Megan, Zoe, Alex, Tyler and Breezy. I can only imagine how horrible it was to have this man in your family.
This beautiful family was cursed to have this thing as a sperm donor!
Hopefully he get's some prison yard justice dished out to him on a daily basis
@@ston3kill3r yup, be a shame if he were to have a series of accidents. a damned shame 🤣
What's crazy is the fact that he was even found guilty. The evidence was really "suspect." I wouldnt be talking junk yet, he might not be the killer. I will say that whoever's did this is a real PoS. They do deserve to die. Screw life sentences, they need the death penalty.
@@ston3kill3r so you support violence?
just got back from grandparents day at my grandsons school. seeing all the happy innocent faces it depresses me that there are horrific people like this in the world. he's still shaking his head like he's the one who has been dealt an injustice.
Ive never seen someone on trial acting so smug and pompous before.
So true. And the fact that he looks and seemed like every other family man. Wife, family, nice home car and dog. So normal looking. It goes to show you that ANY person you met can have an extremely dark side and you'd never know. I mean this guy coached his son's soccer team!! That's a very frightening thing.
@@Aleyaha699 every single murderer ever really
@@Aleyaha699 that's what a true narcissist does. It's never their fault. Always someone else. Disgusting he still blames her. That poor family. I cannot imagine what they were going through while their father is taking their life. May they all RIP. Prayers for the extended family members.🕊️🙏🕊️🙏🕊️💙🙏💙
It is amazing how he is so narcissist that he thinks the world will believe his bs, it is his right to speaks, but like a smart man he seems very unintelligent in my view, you got convicted, take it!!!
The Bowtie is amazing- I know it is not the most important thing here, but the bowtie deserves recognition
Megan's aunt, Cynthia Copco, the first person to testify in the blue sweater, seems so sweet and a lovely woman. So glad she was there to speak for her niece and godchildren. At first I was surprised by how composed she seemed, but when she said she was a nurse, it makes sense. Having worked closely with nurses, they are trained to stay calm in crisis situations and usually do.
He really likes to hear himself talk. He makes no sense whatsoever. Garbled mixed up stories and lies. Justice today for the family he destroyed.
I am super annoyed that we had to listen to him again.
It will never be justice he still alive there gone for ever ..is no justice for murder ..
He cannot take criticism at all, has to refute and over explain everything to fit his alternate reality.
@@Psyminds Tony, is that you? Pipe down and go back to your job of mopping your prison tier.
He is beyond forgiveness.
So you're God?
@@mostlyhondas7256 no, r u?
@@mostlyhondas7256
GOOD QUESTION
@N Forgiveness is not a man made construct.
@@mostlyhondas7256 God isn't real.
Well, he got off easier than his wife, his kids, and the dog. I hope no one ever goes to visit him in prison and he spends the remainder of his life with no outside contact from friends or family.
"I don't remember what I said in the police station after I was arrested, but let me tell you on the stand step by step what happened when I got home that day."
HE STAYED IN THE HOUSE WITH THEIR BODIES FOR 3 WEEKS!!! This dude is sick. He belittling her character after he killed her is absolutely SICK. He is seriously acting as if he was done wrong and that is just blowing my mind. He even killed the family dog. What did he think was going to happen??
Evil not sick. Let’s change the narrative.
Yes, why the dog? Poor thing didn't know what was going on and died with fear. Did he think the dog was going to snitch? This man is pure evil- of course living w your family that long after you took their lives is evil in it's purest form.
I hope the family and loved ones get peace knowing he's in prison till he's dead- but I'd rather have my taxes go elsewhere.. in this case I'll pay in full for the death penalty.
(I thought they could sentence the death penalty in FL- from what I'm getting from the monster Nicholas Cruz's case?) I'm not exactly sure what state they are in in this video- I didn't listen very well)
Blaming evil is blaming an outside force when the reality is that he is a very sick and responsible piece of 💩!
Wanted to make it all about him even until the end... Me myself and I...
This guy deserves some “jailhouse justice”.
He will get it, likely even if he's in the "special needs" yard.
I agree !!!
Indeed he shall receive
unfortunately they'll keep him in solitary, even prison inmates understand justice better than these judges
@@jessegarcia2060 hopefully
murderers should suffer in the same manner as their victims. this man should feel the pain he caused, not drain pockets of tax-paying honest citizens.
I think it's so sweet that the aunt included Breezy into her victim impact statement😔
1 year is the maximum sentence for killing a dog?!?! That is messed up!
More than most people get for it I imagine
Right ?!?!
We pay people to kill animals. Why is it only wrong to kill an animal if its a dog?
I'm surprised he was sentenced at all for that. In most U.S. states, it is not illegal to kill your dog if done humanely. Dogs are viewed as legal property, and each owner has the right to decide whether to put their dog down.
@@sativarosegold3604 most people just get fined.
WTH is he doing??? He’s supposed to be giving a short statement but instead he’s yapping on and on like there’s a chance they’ll change their minds and say “oh since you put it that way…you’re free to go.” He’s the most irritating defendant ever. I love how his lawyer said “the judge can’t overturn the verdict.” 😂😅🤣
😂😂
I reckon he was giving his best shot at it happening.
He just really had to let the judge know about the Egyptians and the pyramids 😆
Agree....I hated him on the stand. Your comments are so spot on. 👌
@Linda Lowther I have never heard the word "time" used for the word "term".
What a stain on humanity and a strain on sanity.
I like how the judge even gave him a year for killing the family dog. What a despicable monster.
disappointed that the maximum is only one year for murdering a dog but at least it was cool that the judge said murder instead of animal cruelty like when the verdict was being read.
WOW he takes no responsibility for what he did. Confesses and later denies he was even there. Then he wants to retry the case in his sentencing statement. All I heard in his statement was Me, I, I, I, Me, it's all about me.
That’s what Narcissists do. He makes me sick!
Did he seriously try to insuate his wife killed the kids?
@@jaymejohnson2375 Yes he did. PATHETIC
@@divaah4406, just like Chris watts.
Notice how he doesn’t mention that he was waiting for the FBI to come get him for the Medicaid Fraud …..hundreds of thousands of dollars that HE STOLE in Connecticut….. his family never knew that he was wanted in Connecticut….his wife and children were oblivious to that fact……this animal didn’t tell his family that he stole money and would be most likely going to prison…..he was too weak to face the consequences and too weak to kill himself so he murdered everyone…..then tries to blame his innocent wife for everything!!!
He’s like: „Maybe I can still convince the judge I’m innocent.”
I have an illness that means I have to rely on my husband for everything. It is so hard giving up your independence but I am so fortunate to have a loving, supportive husband. This man is a monster
This is the kind of judge we need in all of our systems someone who actually gives the right consequences that criminals deserve especially in these kind of cases!
Amen!
@@johnsohc That had nothing to do with religion.
Listening to Megan’s aunt, it’s just heartbreaking to know that this family had endure such evilness. I think for a lot of us we will never forget this family and I wish peace for Megan’s side of the family who has to live with the pain.
There's something I never thought about before...the reaction of other children who knew these kids and the fear they must feel . This whole event will probably darken their life forever..,..just how far reaching the vile actions of a subhuman can damage beyond the immediate family. God bless this family 🙏 Most hateful wee man seriously
If you believe in God, know that Jesus can take care if those kids. They don't need people to have pity for them. But to offer hope
@@JesusisHere777 Belief in God doesn't negate people's need for compassion, care and love from other humans... Really not sure what you're getting at here.
Prayers to all affected by this pos!
Christopher V, oh, DO shut your pie hole.
This man not only inflicted horrible suffering and terror on his immediate family, robbing them of their lives, but he grievously wounded the whole community. He's shamed and horrified his own family, put Megan's family in a lifelong prison of grief, and traumatized all the children's friends and classmates, the family's neighbors, teachers, co-workers, and all law enforcement people who had to come in contact with the case.
Min 11:23 he slips as says “AFTER SHE DIED” and immediately changes gets back in track of his lies 😧😮🤔
Some people just can’t shut up.
Is he really telling the judge all of this, like it would make a difference at this point and like the judge didnt just sit through the entire trial and have to sit through his testimony of lies the day before?
Exactly. LOL
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Even his own lawyer tried to shut him up - twice! What a loser. And he was obviously very annoyed about his wife's Auntie mentioning his massive weight gain (several times), he felt he had to provide excuses for piling on the pounds.
Listen Tony - you were just convicted of murdering your wife, three children and the pet dog, being called a lard arse in court is the least of your worries! 🤣🤣🤣
The judge is loving every second of his groveling because he already knows he’s about to lay the smack down on him. Let him think what he’s saying actually matters. Luck at the judges face the whole time. Complete and utter disdain.
Judge: "Well, now you've put it that way, maybe just the one life sentence without any possibility of parole will suffice..."
I'm very sorry for making light of this tragedy, but hearing the 1 year added for the murder of the dog ontop of the multiple consecutive life sentences just felt like a cherry on top and got a bit of a chuckle out of me.
I can’t believe he put himself in the foot prints saying! Are you kidding me?! This is how elevated he sees himself!
