0:42.9

we've saved the best for last. I'm really excited to have tonight's guest. David Yonetti is a

phenomenal, phenomenal attorney out of the Boston area. And he was a phenomenal attorney. I got,

0:56.2

I got news for you long before Karen Reed's case walked into his office. He's been doing it
