Thought I would post this trial I'm watching now. Ronald Anthony Burgos Aviles had an affair with Grizelda - Dominic was their baby. He didn't want anything to do with Dominic, she was trying to get child support, so he killed both of them.

Stories

I listened to opening statements today. Thank God this monster was so stupid!!
 
For sure! I'm not sure why I'm so into this case, but I'm finding it fascinating, more so than many of the other trials I've watched.
Agree, maybe because the opening is so riveting. He tried to kill Dominic by injecting him with something, two weeks prior to actually murdering him? just finishing day 1. This guy is subhuman.
 
I’ve been watching……this guy is a monster. Baby killer…serial cheater. Imagine killing a baby and his momma….trying to erase them. Sick sick sick. How i hope he suffers whatever life he has left.

after that he’ll be a fishing worm : )

eta: then he will become fish poop.

I'm hooked. Just watched both prosecution and defense opening. I found the prosecutor's statement though, impactful and easy to follow. I hung on to prosecutor's every word. He sounds very prepared and made it clear there is plentiful evidence.
The defense opening lasted only a few minutes focusing on the unreliability of cell phone data the state will present. moo

The witnesses will pull you in even more. This case has really grabbed my heart.

The only problem is the sound quality is terrible at times.
 
Watching first witness, Grizelda's sister Angie, a nurse. She is testifying about the toxic injection Ronald Burgos Aviles (baby father, suspected killer) administered to Dominic, his own son. The baby is in a lot of pain. The 18 month old had been walking for several months. He became unable to walk anymore.

I get the feeling Grizelda's (baby mother) family is close-knit, caring and supportive of one another. The sister is so likable. I get a bad vibe from baby's father, the suspected killer. To me he projects a tough-guy attitude in court. His shirt top button undone, tie worn loose. He doesn't care about making a good appearance. moo

Day 2- BP Agent Lara - with uncontrollable emotion, at the moment he's told Burgos may be the killer. I've cued it up at the time I want you all to see. "We're supposed to be the good guys" ...

I like the way you think, "Really?"! [". . . after that he'll be a fishing worm : ) "] That is positively poetic -- and so fitting! Then . . . the outcome is absolutely perfect! That could be his epitaph!
