Gary Anderson's Case Summary

For the offender the only factor that affected her criminal behaviour was self-interest. Whether she followed the victim to murder or not, to some extent she wanted to extract some form of revenge. This was confirmed during the trial when the passenger who was in the car with the offender said “She was sick of them” and followed them as a means of teaching them a lesson. The offender’s defence relied on proving that at the time of the incident the factors affecting her were psychological and that her actions were uncontrollable due to her consumption of alcohol and her use of cannabis, heroin and valium in combination with her bipolar disorder. However this was dismissed upon the testimony of Susan Pullman, a neuropsychologist who proved that the offender was not experiencing mania at the time of the incident.

We have two witnesses, Dr Richard Kimball, the accused, and Fran Goodheart, his wife’s best friend, who will present evidence that will cause you to have reasonable doubt that Dr Kimball is guilty of first-degree murder.

As I viewed the case of Gary L. Sampson, 41, he can best be described as a man dependent on liquor and cocaine, a miscreant father, and a bank burglar with a long history of brutality. On August 1, 2001, he handed himself over to the Vermont State Police in the wake of escaping from interest for a string of three killings he submitted in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. The individuals who knew Sampson estimated that his homicides were an urgent finale to a pained life. Amid his initial life in New England, he once bound, choked, and beat three elderly ladies in a treat store. He had commandeered autos at knifepoint and was therapeutically analyzed as schizophrenic. In 1977, he wedded a 17-year-old young lady he had impregnated; after two months, he was captured and accused of assault for having "unnatural intercourse with a

In Brant County, 1896, Lillie Carpenter died in her home despite the efforts of her neighbour, Margaret Gillies, and her husband, Robert Carpenter, to revive her. Dr. Peter Jones and Dr. Robert McDonald examined the body and found bruises on Lillie's arms, shoulders, chest, abdomen and head. Dr. Jones then concluded that death occured as a result of bodily trauma and Robert Carpenter was convicted of manslaughter. The evidence most strongly presented was that of his suspicious behaviour of locking his wife in thier home and telling two different accounts as to her condition the day she died. Though this dual account of Lillie's conidiotn is rather questionable, in consideration that the locked door was mentioned numerous times in the trial it suggests that these instances are more attunted to a character analysis of Carpenter and not a determining factor is he beat his wife. During the trial abuse allegations, supposrted using witness testimony,however, were used as evidence to support Robert was a violent man. These allegations,however, do not cocnlusively demonstarte Crapenter's guilt as the witnesses do not have a clear line of visions to determine if Carpenter had beat his wife. While Lillie sustained brusing on her upper body and her skull, causing congestion in the brain, her syptoms leading up to her death suggest that she could have dided of water poisoning.

In “A Jury of Her Peers” by Susan Glaspell, there is a murder scenario, that is more to it than appears. Mr. Hale went over to the Wrights’ house to see if Mr. Wright still is not interested in a telephone. When he goes to the house and starts talking to Mrs. Wright, he finds out Mr. Wright is upstairs in their bedroom dead. Someone slipped a rope around Mr. Wright's neck and strangled him, and Mrs. Wright was the only one home who appeared to be home when this happened. but the men cannot find a motive for her to kill him. Although Mrs. Wright claims to have been asleep during her husband’s murder, the women conclude she strangled her husband, Mr. Wright, as evidence by the errant quilt patch, the broken bird cage, and the slaughtered canary.

Molly Wright was a 73 year old elderly woman who lived in West Yorkshire. Ms. Wright was brutally murdered in her home. It is being said that her son-in-law David Hill is the person responsibility for the murder, but people are saying otherwise. People are saying that the evidence wasn’t matching up with Hill’s evidence. Then there are sayings that it could have been someone else because someone saw a man creeping around Ms. Wright’s home. The question is if Mr. Hill did commit the crime, what was his intent for killing his mother-in-law? Someone who was also his business partner. David was hiding things from Ms. Wright such as he was in debt. He took out credit cards and was in debt for twenty thousand dollars. She probably found out about the

The charge was unrelated to Roy’s case, but to the surprise of detectives, Phillion freely confessed to the murder of Roy. He told the cops that he would provide a full confession on one condition – he would be allowed to meet with his partner, Neil. The police agreed, the meeting was arranged, and Phillion signed his confession soon after. Neil also told investigators that he had received a similar confession from Phillion merely four days before his formal confession. Notably, on the same he confessed, he told officers that his confession was false. Phillion claimed that the confession was a plan devised by Neil to send the police on a “wild-goose chase,” and the result would provide financial gains for himself and Neil. It was also later speculated that Phillion falsely confessed to protect Neil from different legal issue. Regardless of the aforementioned statement, Phillion’s trial began on October 16th, 1972. During the trial, the Crown maintained three crucial pieces of
