She was still arguing with her husband about his affair three years after. One of them should have just left imo.
And in front of the kids non-the-less 💔😢
@@merilaescobar Exactly
Shame on her?
@@kristenpino4635 ???
@@kristenpino4635shame on him. A drunk an angry drunk lie,l’y abuser and kids were afraid of him. A cheater a fraud. He destroyed his family‼️ she was afraid of him‼️🤢😡
The mother is to blame. If you cant get over your husbands affair, leave! She's obviously a selfish nutjob.
She not only killed her husband, but she destroyed her kids lives forever!
Lock her up!
what kind of mother would do this an ruin the lives of her beautiful children
sometimes I think a married couple get to hate each other yet refuse to leave each other for fear the other one may find happiness.
@@DianeBalmforth. Either that or the other one gets support forever….one of my friends left the lady with everything they had cuz he was tired of putting up with her and the courts. Later the lady moved into the house a guy as her boyfriend who was a loser to live with her and the kids; Go figured, but my friend is happy renting an apartment and be alive.
Not leave, why should she, kick him out ffs.😢
"I Was Used To It"
"It Turned Into My New Normal"
"I Occasionally Get Involved"
These Words Are Absolutely Horrific For Any Child/Children To Be Saying😢

Agree, not only just for children, but also for each other. 💜💜💜
I can’t believe she called her daughter to see her father’s bleeding body . And still got her to make the 911 call ,
This is beyond wicked and selfish .
No doubt she told her daughter what to say to the operator .
This poor girl is terribly traumatized. So so sad
Yes, her eyes are wide. An extreme stress response.
😔💔
Divorce DIVORCE PEOPLE! Your kids do not deserve this trauma! My 💔breaks for this young lady.
What a terrible position for this young lady to end up in. My heart breaks for her.
Yes, she's losing both her parents.
Sophyia has a haunted look - like a little bird with broken wings. She did not want to go back their - I wish she didn't testify. Very selfish parents, i grew up in war zone behind closed doors. I cannot watch all of this. I wish Sophyia all the love, and healing - may this be a turning point in her life.
*go back there *in a war zone
Same here. Total war zone but they presented well to outsiders. Totally traumatising parents making you watch them fight and despise each other. It totally tore my family apart. Also made us siblings very damaged in different ways. So selfish and severely detrimental when parents fight violently and non stop in front of kids.
I used to be a close friend of the victim, Michael Ricci. She is definitely trying to protect her mom. I can see right through it.
That is sad , I am sure her mom made her feel like if you don’t help me , you will lose both parents. Mom seems like she would never Let Things Go!!!
Absolutely 💯 I could see it to !!
She is a witness for the prosecution not the defence?!
Is it not possible that they were in a toxic relationship due to his drinking and affair?
Such a coward asking her 16 yr old to call 911
Why is that daughter on the stand? She clearly needs some help. It seems like the light is on, but nobody is home.
Yes! She seems developmentally delayed for sure.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought that.
She's dead emotionally. The only time she showed any emotion is when they played the 9-1-1 call.
She might have a hearing issue, which makes your voice sounds like that. Poor kid.
So detached from reality. She badly needs help to reconnect and discover some real emotions.
Has this girl been given a Valium or something? Wow.
And if the mother couldn't get past the affair from 3 years earlier then, marriage was over. A shame they put their daughter through this. Very selfish of them. 😢
I was wondering that too, but thinking about something traumatic can cause you to dissociate which usually makes you look super spaced out. Couldn’t blame her if she was prescribed anti anxiety meds after something like that though ☹️
My entire life my dad ab*sed my mom for being married before she met him smh
@@potheadzndrama215 your comment made me cry 😢 😭 thus is so horrible . I'm so sorry you went through that and your family 🙏
@@naomideleon8363 I’m so sorry. Didn’t mean to make anyone cry. I just can relate with her saying it’s a normal thing in her life. I just wish my mom could have a life of peace & less stress
The daughter is feeble- possibly a result of dysfunctional family- she cannot think or respond normally-
Yes well said. Just like she’s totally cut off from reality. So abnormal.
This is heartbreaking for the daughter.
Jealousy is a terrible thing ! 😮 Her mom should of walked away for the kids sake !! She lived in the house with her husband who cheated so she was reminded of his actions every day 🙄 This woman I believe had Jealous rage! She needs to be held accountable 😮😢 Their dad did not deserve to die!! Very sad 😮😢
Her Mom yelling at her Dad over him Cheating is wild. Adults need to stop doing this to their children. How selfish of her. That is so traumatizing to your kids. 😢
Cheating and alcoholism is on the dad. She was trauma bonded to him likely
@reneegardner2286 I was going to say the same thing. Everyone is so judgemental on here about the Mum but sorry try be cheated on and abused by the man you married and then tell me you wouldn't still be traumatised years later.
@DT-ml7ob exactly emotional abuse is abuse period.
Selfish of her? The affair was selfish of him. What's not fair, is the children are always the ones paying for the bad decisions of the parents. I'm so heart broken for the daughter being traumatized again.
@@reneegardner2286Maybe trauma bonded but she also had her own issues - sick people attract eachother often and her behaviour was toxic too
If it couldn't be resolved three yrs later, get divorced. The mother is a nut. Lock her up. This poor girl has been traumatized
Mother is a nut case
Traumatized*
But yeah dramatized too😂
@@danishaferreira7796that's what happens when I talk into the phone.
It never understands me. 😮
That lawyer earning her corn today......pulling teeth!!
Pulling teeth very badly though.
She doesn't recall anything...Looks like she's trying defend her mother who is unstable, argumentative and selfish. Why put yourself and your children in such situation. Just divorce, spare everyone your craziness.
The daughter is holding back ,but Mike JR. Was 100% honest. Your Dad is Proud of you for your Strength, Love, and Devotion. You are a Great Young Man he was your Hero and Now YOU are your Dads Hero💙
This girl is too spaced out to be on the stand😡
Totally agree. So frustrating to watch too.
She was covering for her mom.
I believe this too
Yep
She is for sure protecting her mom with vague answers. So sad but she HAS to legally tell the truth. A terrible position to be in.
My heart goes out to this poor young lady! 🥺 I can't even imagine what she has been through
She looks as though she has been medicated☹️
I’m surprised that the daughter didn’t call the police. When my parents would argue , I would call the police.
I'm unfamiliar with this case and thought the title said Christina Ricci. 😮
Omg same. I was like how is this already at trial and the first we've heard of it. Good lord
Lol 🤣. Me, too.
Same
For real! I thought maybe she had taken being Wednesday Addams too far. XD
Lol same here
That microphone is in a bad Place.
I was Thinking the Same!!!
Hitler mustache
😂I said the same thang!😂
I get so sick of people lying on the witness stand. This girl knows damn well what they were arguing about.
OMG! Ibfeel so broken for this girl……. She has to relive that painful experience! 😢😢😢
She didn't seem to feel anything until they played the 9-1-1 call.
This girl is not being honest
She is still traumatized..
Could they not have moved the camera so she doesn't look like she has a mustache???
Lol I noticed that too. Like a Hitler tache 😅
@lululiga333 How doesn't the camera person not know to adjust it??
Couldn’t the lawyer shown a layout plan of the house instead of using the front view of the house to describe where each room is located? It would’ve been easier for the jurors to relate to her questions.
Is she trying to protect her mother? It seems like it
Poor girl. 💔 Heartbreaking
She’s a gorgeous, precious young lady. You can sense the deep pain from her demeanor, & pain in her eyes. So sorry you had to witness this, you deserve all the treasures life offers from here on out! Bless you 💕
People shouldn’t bring kids to the world if they woul only put them in that horrendous scandalous situation. Poor kids
And how can anyone predict the future of what’s in store?
Life happens. He had an affair on her. She should’ve just left him if she couldn’t get over it. I left my husband of 20 years when my kids were 14 and 11. I wasn’t gonna put up with it any longer.
Just because you left your husband because he cheated on you, you will shame others for trying to make it work?
That’s the point, if it isn’t working then leave. The mother chose not to leave
Here's the thing, stupid people think they are completely responsible, competent, and well adjusted. There have been a lot of wonderful people born from awful and abusive parents, and while it's not a pleasant upbringing, I don't think I want to live in a society where someone makes the decision on who gets to reproduce.
OMG mom made her young daughter call 911
The kids are just so traumatized they seem to be out of their bodies. It seems they spent years “disconnected “ in order to survive the chaos of their parents
OMG poor girl. Playing the 911 call was brutal
She hasn’t blinked in 2 minutes!
She’s on something . Poor kid
She's at her mom's murder trial which might explain her extreme shyness and sadness, and she sounds like she may also have hearing problems (per her speech.)
I’m confused why we are putting this young lady on the platform if she can’t recall anything?
This is very traumatic experience for her my heart goes out to her.
She’s covering for her mom
It’s maddening that NO ONE CARES HOW TRAUMATIZING THIS IS FOR THIS CHILD 💔😢😢
Excuse me: a murderer needs to be put behind bars. Also, this girl doesn't seem to feel much of anything. I don't think I've ever seen someone talk about the death of a parent so coldly.
@@profd65She could be medicated, she could have gone through extensive therapy (doubtful), she could be special needs, or she could be trying to block it all out. She is being asked about her parents' issues that led to the killing of her father. That has to be very complicated.
@@profd65you do know the coldness in her could be as a result of the toxicity at home. The coldness could also be a defense mechanism. Life is sometimes more complex than appears
@@profd65I thought the same. Of course, everyone these days seem to be behavioural experts🙄 It seems like she's pretending she doesn't remember anything. I still remember why my Mum was shouting at my Dad over 20 years ago. She's strange and cold maybe trying to protect mum
She’s on medication poor girl. What a selfish woman
What a sick psycho mother, to do this to your daughter! That mother was sick in the head times ten.
What a sick psycho angry drunk father. To expose his children to this trauma. To instill fear in the family a his drunken rage. His fake personality in OUBLIC. Sick and disgusting‼️🤢😡 emotional verbal abuse to the entire family
Some women stay after an affair solely to make their husband's pay. They remain bitter and rehash it every chance they get. They stay to torture their husbands and their kids because they want everyone to live in their misery.
That man should've left her a while ago, he would probably still be here today.
Such a shame for the daughter having to go through all this testimony 😢
Doesn't seem like it bothered her at all. She has about as much emotion as a potato.
I can't imagine how difficult this must have been for her. She did great.
I think this Mother manipulated the daughter and Angel to side with her, but Mike Jr. Was having non of it. I am so proud of him. That is hard for anyone in that situation I think I would have been more like Mike Jr. ,but understand how hard it would be put in that heartbreaking situation. Bless these Kids Love from NY.🙏 So sorry for your Huge Loss💔
This was really sad, the girl is traumatized and also covering for her mother, afraid of losing both of her parents…probably shouldn’t have had her as a witness, too much going on there
My heart aches for their daughter.
How old was the daughter at the time of the incident? Feel so bad for her. Losing both parents one at the hands of the other n one by prison sentence
Oh she was only 14 or 15
@@frankcarbasho8626she was 16
She said 16 on the 911 call I think
16 then 18 now 😢💔
This poor young girl. She looks traumatized , emotionally exhausted and shouldn’t have to listen to that 911 call. She’s reliving the experience and trauma. They should have escorted her out during the playing of the recording.
This poor girl my heart breaks for her how old is she now ?
18 😢 16 at the time 💔
A normal 16 year old would have been doing CPR….she knows and knew what happened. Just awful her sick mother put her through this .
She absolutely looks traumatized 🙏💜
Never understood a word of that.
I don’t like this prosecutor, she cannot ask clear questions and keep up a discussion.
Her eyes reflect terrified feelings… is she sedate it?
The Father was clearly unhappy 😔 and drinking himself to death ☠️ but she got to him before alcohol 🍺 did. People have to know when to leave toxic ☣️🤢 relationships before it gets to the level of physical abuse and murder.
People get cheated on all the time. And in my many decades of experience, Women do as much as the Men. Foot note. Being cheated upon does not give you the right to kill the cheater.
Do they also suffer from an angry drunk man’s abuse, do their kids also suffer from their dads angry drunken rage and did their father instill fear in them snd create an unsafe environment snd destroy their home❓ I don’t think so‼️🙄🤢😡
@@Whatnok What abuse? What drunken rage? Where are you getting this? It was the wife who was the violent one in this relationship.
Also, are you the sicko who was actually defending this murder in the comment section of another video?
@@profd65 prob christines friend
@@WhatnokThen take the kids to a safe place and get a divorce. She had a choice
Geezer i feel so 😢 sorry for her Daughter..... it's really sad - Cape Town South Africa 🇿🇦
Poor thing. She never have been called to be a witness.
The prosecutor was doing a bad job putting words together
This is a Public Service Announcement against marriage!😁
My heart breaks 💔 for this beautiful young lady 😢😢
Why make her listen to that so wrong to do to her
I agree, the lawyer should’ve just asked her a different way.
@frankcarbasho8626 I was thinking the same. As a child, and this being both of her parents, her mental and emotional well being should be priority. Sad the courts allowed them to have her sit on the stand as they played that. Especially when it probably wasn't super important to the case
I agree this is horrible 😢💔
His wife knew exactly what she was doing. Her well thought out aim was spot on. Like so many females on trial these past mnths, she needs to be behind bars.
To have to relive it, poor girl., I hope she gets help❤
Daughter is somewhat dim-witted but very traumatized poor thing.
I don’t remember anything! I didn’t see anything! I did😢see any injuries.
Why did she even testify?
Poor girl
How do you put your family through this. Especially your kids. There is an easy fix, divorce and self counseling. Now no one’s life will ever have normalcy especially you!!
Dude that top, I was totally confused opening this 😂
@@jeslynn1144 same!! 😂
Yessssss. 🦓
She is covering for her mom...don't know if it's considered perjury since she swore to tell the truth...so wrong to put children thru taking sides
Trauma response? Maybe
She is the double of her dad same 👀 eyes 😢😢😢😢😢
They made beautiful kids
The mom is to be blame and she should have pleaded guilty instead of making her kids go through this. Obviously her husband wasn’t a good man. This is a tragic story
He cheated. That does not make him a bad man. Nor does it mean he deserved to be abused by the wife or be killed by her because she could not control herself. Ridiculous calling someone bad because of an affair. And no, cheating is not condoned. Just does not mean the person is bad.
@@hazelhadley-britt6396 , I just wanted to clarify something. I never said that the husband deserves to be abused or killed, no matter the situation. From my own experiences with cheaters and abusers, I know they can be terrible people(a bad person), but that doesn’t justify violence in any form. I firmly believe in addressing issues without resorting to harm. Just wanted to clear that up
@@MaryThe0nehusband seemed like a good man to most people
The 911 call broke me💔💔💔💔💔💔 I wish I could’ve held and loved on Sophia😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I feel so bad for the kids 😢
Her staring and the way she respond are a bit weird and scary...maybe because she doesn't blink!! She looks in the voide,her eyes are empty, a stone face.
She is definitely on a seditive. 😮
@@pamdangelo6743
*sedative
Reminds me of Sam Kinison’s comedy. A woman says she’ll forgive you but she never will
Such a beautiful girl.. just tragic for her to be put through this!😢
I'm surprised the daughter has such a bad memory especially after only 3 years..
I don't give 2nd chances for infidelity. If it happends once, it will happen again, so I leave, simple as that!
I don't want to stay in a relationship without trust. I would worry anytime he left the house or came home later than usual. Why didn't they just divorce?..no trust means no marriage..
The mic 🎤 is not well placed before the witness: why it reminds me of a certain Adolf H...??🤔
Obviously the kid doesnt want to put her mother away
She should have just leave him bc time will heal everything n u can find a good man that truly love u.
She’s lying for her mom but what about justice for her dad?
Does anyone know if the mom is out on bond?
No she isn't
THE GIRL IS. HELPING HER MOTHER DO NOT RECALLED 😮
Hey????!!!!! Why y’all play that police call???? This is too much for this girl 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💔😭💔💔💔💔💔💔
Try not to have affairs people becuase these things often have a tragic ending
I don't think she is lying ,I believe she is traumatized
Some of these questions are pointless.
The "CC" is WORTHLESS.
She didint think about her kids
the woman is guilty i was actually there when it happened. I was in the attic looking as she stabbed him 4 times in the back.
does speech therapy just not exist anymore? so many young adults with rotacism. This can be corrected in elementary school, it does these kids no favors to be adults with a speech impediment.
I think this is just a heavy Boston accent?
It’s called an East Coast accent
Seriously? I can understand her perfectly fine - speach impediment, or not.
Thanks for saving the world with speech therapy.
Did you take anything else away from this video?
Its not ok to make the kids remember this. Lawyers are really evil.poor girl. These aren't parents they're minsters. People shouldn't do this to their kids.
With the black and white top, I thought the daughter killed the dad! Poor girl to have gone through this 😢
