Summary

Amy and T.J. discuss one of the most elaborate and unthinkable murder cases they’ve ever covered with criminal defense attorney extraordinaire Alison Treissl. 40-year-old former IRS agent Brandon Banfield was found guilty this week of killing his wife Christine and a stranger he lured to his home, Joe Ryan. While Amy and T.J. thought the defense raised some reasonable doubt with two experts from the police department, Treissl pointed out all of the problems with Brendan Banfield’s testimony and why she and the jury just didn’t believe him.
