could this murder had been deliberately. she was murdered. i loved sarah. i would never have hurt her. sarah crying because i felt so bad for her. there is just no chance that he had anything to do with it. three trials, three juries. we are scared that the truth may not come out. sometimes the shades are drawn early in a marriage. even for a young couple so in love like newlyweds sarah and ryan. everything in life was still fresh. even at home on your average monday night. after his workday as a sports writer, ryan said he plop down on the sofa on an august night to chill with the bengals preseason opener against green bay. sarah, he says, went upstairs to draw a bat in the bathroom. she liked her calling baths. the young dental hygienists had been tormented with more of her headaches that afternoon. the young couple in the suburban state in that the home that evening had been married for just under four months. 114 days to be exact. they vowed till dea
wrongdoing. but the prosecution would tell the jury in his closing argument that while they may never know why ryan killed his wife, that he nonetheless did it. and that the clock was ticking as he staged to the scene before he called 9-1-1. that they said, explains the damp here, dry body mystery. sara widmer was even there out of that bathtub for a longer period of time. had been dead for a longer period of time. or, her body was never fully in the bathtub. and they claim that ryan spent so much time cleaning up the scene before he called for emts, that sarah s dead body was showing signs of rigor mortise when they arrived. she was already dead by the time they got there. they had difficulty intubated her because her chin kept wanting to fall. rigor mortise setting in.
and death above her body. that final pose it caught the detective s attention, years before. a curiosity, but he didn t now, adam gibson did. regret mortise? yes. in my opinion. the mechanics of rigor mortise collect this, upon death, a humans muscle start to stiffen. but, to the detective, it looked as though cory s arms and hands were in an advanced state of order, meaning she likely that many hours before this photo was taken. remember, curtis said he tucked his sickly wife into bed, only an hour before finding her dead. it didn t make sense of officer. detective gibson went straight to his bobs with the old loveless file. my first thought was, we miss something. chief robert cope lee had been in charge into the, 61 everyone assume that cory had died, unnatural death. he says he never saw the photos that detective was not holding before him. that s when i saw the picture for the first time.
two of cory s own sons? cory s brother and dentist found himself struggling over the conflicted facts. i have to believe in that, i would have to believe in the family at the same time. so i m completely torn. i ve never seen a more difficult case more closely argued. there doesn t seem to be middle ground, there is nothing. parkinson urged the jury to focus on the science, and one image, corey in her bed, her body, rigor mortise. she says it is proof that she died hours before cordes claims, it proves, he argues, that curtis killed her. coming up, the defense gets its turn, and christine is feeling optimistic. i knew in my heart he was going home. christine came in and explain to her what was about to happen. when mr. on the mississippi continues. when mr. on the mississippi continues. continues. and it works fast. in as little as 7 days
murderer. we are relying on scientific the media, including nbc s quincy affiliate, were all over the story. covering every moment of his fall from grace. he s accused of killing his first wife. the former prosecutor would himself be prosecuted by ed parkinson. you can t get around rigor mortise, in my opinion, and make sense of this case, and the timeline didn t make sense with curtis. in january of 2016, nearly a decked caid after cory lovelace s death, curtis arrived for the first day of his trial, he faced 20 to 60 years in prison upon conviction for a first degree murder, he pleaded not guilty. cameras were not allowed in the courtroom. it was clear to me, it didn t matter what i did, as far as the prosecution was concerned. their only concern was that they needed to create a crime, and they needed for me to look bad in order to do that. curtis didn t necessarily prosecutors help to make him
