Tossed Confessions, Videotaped Murders & More – This Week on Courtroom Confidential

Written By Joshua Ritter

Welcome back to Courtroom Confidential with Joshua Ritter! This week, I analyze the following updates in headline-making true crime cases from across the country:

• #ChadDoerman, Ohio man accused of shooting his three children, asks a judge to toss his confession to the murders, saying his Miranda rights were not read in full and that detectives questioned him for hours without a lawyer present.

• South African man #BrianStevenSmith found guilty of 14 charges for the murders of two Alaskan Native women.

• #JamesCrumbley, the father of Oxford High School Shooter #EthanCrumbley, in court for a hearing that revolved around which witnesses will testify in his manslaughter trial.

Plus, we briefly cover cases that also made headlines this week, and what’s on the docket for next week. Share your thoughts and questions on these cases in the comments!
