how much time would it take for the crystals to deposit themselves into the blood vessels of the heart? it takes weeks, at least. the fact that crystals were forming in his heart and had traveled to his brain indicated long term exposure and not a one-dose kill. and matt s friends and were colleagues testified. they had seen his body disintegrate before their eyes, starting weeks, if not months before his dad. he began sweating profusely and he complained of back pain. he was sitting beside me and practically was hunched over to where his chest was on his knees. who could ve made that happen and how? investigators, remember, they had found antifreeze in halle and matt s garage. immediately, a year after holly moved out. prosecutors knew that they
like, being of matt had been taken out of the home. but it was what holly hadn t cleaned up that made the biggest impression on rebecca. those bottles of chemicals on the kitchen floor what was hollies response when you asked her about those items? one of the items was brought up us antifreeze for matt to winterize his boat. but, who winterize is their boat in the summer? remember, matt died in july, said the prosecutors, so rebecca s story was evidence that hawley had access to antifreeze around the time of matt s death she was able to put antifreeze in the kitchen of holly mcfeeture after the death of matt podolak. now they needed to convince the jury that holly actually fed the antifreeze to matt. that would take a little doing.
but you have not a high do how i didn t have to see physical proof in order to i asked a question. you have no idea whatsoever how that man died, do you? not to my knowledge, no. did the memory of all those happy days that rebecca spent with ali suddenly sprout the duct suspicion once the police were spurred in rebecca s ear. like the bit about the antifreeze in the kitchen. holly has children. and she is very careful. and i know that she would not leave chemicals like that just flying around the house. it was just a smokescreen. the hard evidence, the prosecution did not have. like, anything, connecting holley to the murder weapon. but which of course would mean the antifreeze. remember those two bottles of antifreeze investigators found
death by antifreeze poisoning, the and pointing at her. matt s fiancée and the mother of his children, holly mcfeeture. holly mcfeeture was a suspect from day one. prosecutors were appointed. brian make done in and they were frustrated but we were missing missing pieces, missing critical links on the case. evidence already collected was madly inconclusive. for example, detectives recovered two bottles of antifreeze in the garage were holly and matt lived. but it turned out somebody else had been living in the house for more than a year by the time they found. it whose antifreeze was it? nobody knew. but still, was there a way that we could go ahead and link it up? nope. tests confirmed that the garage antifreeze did not match the antifreeze that killed matt. but, remember holly s friend, rebecca vega? detective quinn found her name
