This is the Hidden Killers podcast with Tony Bruske and continuing coverage of the case against Karen Reed.

So Reed, then she has her breakdown.

And let's talk about getting to that for a moment because I thought it was really great how they presented the timeline of this.

Because in the previous trial, and just even in analyzing the case,

I think a lot of times you get the impression that she's screaming the I hit him or did I hit him

and could I have hit him at that moment when they're with the body, which makes sense why someone

would be reacting that way.

But she's doing this before there's even a body in the snow or that they know there's a body

in the snow. And Jen McCabe's not freaking out. She doesn't think that. Carrie Roberts is saying,

why would you say that? Why would you think you hit him? No, you didn't. Let's go figure this out.

Nobody else is thinking this.

And of course, people are going to argue, well, because they know it, because those moms went

out there and drug him out to the curb by the flagpole and then looked at basketball scores and

went to bed. Yeah, that makes sense. But the fact that that she's so early on going on and frantic about all of this

just doesn't make any logical sense to me either. The night before, she's freaking out thinking he's

sleeping with somebody else. And that's usually her big fear. Why is she not going to that?

Why is it not all about him sleeping with somebody? We get one little mention of she's

curious about the Bella's mom down the road.

But that's it.

The rest is she's afraid that he's dead in the snow or a snowplow hit him.

If she saw him go into the house, which she's already testified to, why on earth would

you think he's in the snow or a snowplow hit him?
