00:18What do you think my question is going to be?
00:20Why did I wait 31 days to call 911?
00:30There's something wrong.
00:37I found my daughter's car today.
00:39And it smells like there's been a dead body in the damn car.
00:54I did notice a fairly strong odor.
00:57In my opinion, and my experience,
00:59the smell of decomposition is unique.

01:14She just doesn't trust the local authorities.

01:44a utility worker found these remains,
01:48a skull and also possibly some duct tape
01:51and a plastic bag, among other remains here.

02:55we, the jury, find the defendant not guilty.
03:02Surprise, sadness among the emotions
03:04expressed in downtown West Palm Beach this afternoon.
03:06I think that she got away with it.
03:09I think that, you know, justice will prevail
03:12and that, you know, she will.
03:14She will eventually pay.
03:24People lie to the cops every day.
03:25Cops lie to people every day.
03:27I'm just one of the unfortunate idiots
03:29who admitted that they lied.
