Time for Arkansas’ trial of the 40s! James Waybern Hall, aka Red, was going to be tried for his crime against his wife Fayrene. The state felt this was the strongest case they had in placing and keeping Red behind bars. This week, Tiff will walk us through the State’s case against Red. And of course, Red’s attorney will pull every string he can in an attempt to get his client off with an insanity plea…surprised? We weren’t either.
This trial is, at times, a circus event, with the defense interrupting, objecting, and frustrating witnesses and the judge. Was this the plan all along? You be the judge…lol! And with a pile of evidence, the defense will attempt to convince the jury that Fay’s death is anything BUT obvious…something the prosecution easily feels they can prove.
Don’t forget! If you haven’t listened to Episodes 89-92, please do so now! We can’t have our cousins being lost!
