| 0:11.4 | Hello and welcome to True Crime Daily, the podcast, covering high profile and under the radar |
| 0:16.4 | cases from across the country every week. I'm your host, Anna Garcia. We are recording this on Wednesday, |
| 0:21.5 | February 9, 2022. Our guest today is former prosecutor and current criminal defense attorney, |
| 0:28.4 | Robert Kate Corbett, who is joining us from Charlotte, North Carolina. Robert, welcome back to |
| 0:33.5 | the program. Hey, thank you for having me. I enjoy being here. Oh, we love having you. We love |
| 0:38.6 | having you. I love your take on everything. I love following your Instagram. We've got two cases |

| 1:29.1 | A judge has ruled her mentally fit. She will stand trial. The judge is not buying Spongebob story, |
| 1:38.2 | right? She's just not buying it. So that's one case we're going to look at that later. But first, |
| 1:43.4 | what happens when someone has an identical twin and is accused of murder? I'm fascinated by this case. |
| 1:51.5 | Can you ever be sure that you have the right twin? It never occurred to me, Robert, that we'd |
| 1:56.6 | even be having this discussion because it doesn't come up that often in crime cases, right? |
| 2:01.9 | Yeah, it certainly doesn't come up often. And when you sort of think about it, the only times, |
| 2:08.0 | well, DNA has become such an important tool in crime solving. And everyone has a unique DNA profile. |
