hemy up, turning hot and then cold. she treated him like a yo-yo. she would have him all the way at the top, you know, just saying that this is the greatest, and we re soulmates, and having a great time out of town. and then coming back in town and texting him and saying, we can only have a business relationship, we can no longer do this. defense expert dr. adriana flores said this yo-yo effect strengthened the delusions that hemy was having, and in this altered state he would listen to andrea s complaints about rusty, how the children were shying away from him. their conversations or communication was saturated with discussions of the children, saturated with andrea sneiderman s complaints about her relationship with her husband. hemy thought something needed to be done, said his defense, especially when the demon, an apparition from his childhood, returned. he described it in this jailhouse interview.
neuman was led away after the judge sentenced him to spend the rest of his life in prison. and in a written statement issued after the verdict, andrea sneiderman said she was grateful to the jurors and felt justice had finally been done for rusty. but the prosecution wasn t finished. in 2012, andrea sneiderman was charged in the murder of her husband rusty. those charges were dropped, then in august 2013, sneiderman faced new charges and was found guilty of perjury and hindering the apprehension of a killer. in 2014, schneiderman was released from prison and completed her parole three years later. and in 2015, a break for hemy neuman or was it? the georgia supreme court threw out the conviction. saying the trial court erred in admitting evidence protected by attorney/client privilege. but in a 2016 retrial, a jury
we the jury find the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, but mentally ill. the jury foreperson told dateline that they believed hemy was mentally ill, but nonetheless should go to prison. we were all very passionate that we were not going to be comfortable with hemy neuman thinking that he could actually walk. was there a discussion of where s andrea sneiderman, why are we not talking about her? for us it was still, this is not about andrea sneiderman. if there was an affair, that is between andrea and hemy neuman. before imposing sentence, the judge heard from rusty s killer. hemy neuman s statement was brief. i am so, so sorry. i am sorry from the deepest part of me, your honor. and then it was over for the disgraced business executive.
