She shot her own daughter in the head. I didn't think the reality could be worse than I'd imagined, but somehow, it is.

Yes,
Utah has the death penalty. Capital punishment is a legal penalty in the state, and Utah was the first state to resume executions after the national moratorium ended in 1977.

Bro if this goes to trial….we are going to hear a lot of things aren’t we

I wonder if it'll go to trial or if Ashlee will plead guilty. Given her behavior so far, I wouldn't be surprised if she continues to try to deny involvement despite what sounds like overwhelming evidence against her.

"Bless the innocent soul of Melodee Buzzard and we will never ever forget her."

 

[Knox]

Ashlee acted alone? No one else was involved.

 

[ErinC]

The one and only consolation here is that Melodee is now in a place where that...creature...can never hurt her again.

 

[Knox]

Murder weapon is not in their possession, searching for it

 

[Knox]

Where will trial take place? In SB County, because intent was formed here.

 

[Megnut]

Crime will be tried in the county where Ashlee formed intent.

 

[Knox]

Mugshot, will be given out.

 

[tlcya]

Q: do you believe AB acted alone or are there possibly other suspects involved?

A: we do not at this time believe anyone else was involved

Q: is murder weapon in evidence?

A: no, we do not have the murder weapon yet but will continue to seek it

Q: where will she be tried?

A: Trial will take place in CA because intent was formed here prior to the actual crime

Q: had the area been searched prior to the finding of M's body?

A: We've followed many leads across several states but no, that specific area had not been searched.

Q: Motive?

A: We have not established a motive at this point.

 

[strawberry]

This man is very well spoken.

 

[Knox]

No motive established at this point.

 

[Megnut]

Have not established motive.

 

[tlcya]

Q: can you describe A's demeanor now, we know she was described as uncooperative before

A: no change in that still uncooperative

 

[Knox]

Has Ashlee confessed, still not cooperating

 

[Megnut]

No change in her attitude, demeanor. Still uncooperative.

 

[Knox]
