0:00.0	If the defendant were truly insane in the sense that he's confessing to something he didn't do,
0:05.7	which is the argument they're making to the jury, he's so mentally ill, he's making admissions that aren't true.
0:13.4	Then if that were true, the defense would have filed and won a motion to declare the defendant incompetent to stand trial.
0:24.5	Hello and welcome to best case, worst case.
0:30.4	This is Jim Clementi, retired FBI profile of former Neic City Prosecutor and Rite Reducer of Criminal Minds and Bluebeard.
0:32.9	And with me today is... Hi, everybody. It's Francie Hakes, former state and federal prosecutor, Jim.
0:37.2	We have what I think is going to be our second to last episode on the Delphi murders, the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German in Delphi, Indiana in 2017. We've been continuously covering this trial since it began, not in the kind of the detail, granular,
0:58.2	here's what happened, you know, with each witness, each day kind of way, but just in

1:31.2	I think there was even some rebuttal by the prosecution.
1:33.8	There was. This is a sequestered jury, meaning they cannot go home. They haven't been
1:39.2	home in a month, the whole month of the trial. It is Friday. They've had the case now for a couple of days,
1:46.4	total, really. Yeah, they did two hours yesterday and they're back at nine today.
1:50.8	But I will not be shocked if they have a verdict today. It is classic that juries who are
1:58.8	sequestered reach a verdict coincidentally on a Friday because they
2:02.9	are really ready to go home and they just can't face another weekend away from their families. So
2:11.0	I won't be surprised if we get a verdict today and we'll discuss that next week. But in the meantime,
