Is Aaron Spencer's Murder Case Falling Apart Before It Reaches a Jury?

from Hidden Killers Live! Daily True Crime News & Breakdowns · host Hidden Killers Podcast

Every major pretrial ruling under Judge Ralph Wilson has gone the defense's way in Aaron Spencer's murder case. Wilson reversed the removed judge's restrictions on reputation witnesses. He allowed an FBI behavioral expert to testify. He left the door open on the defense's motion to dismiss based on law enforcement losing the dashcam SD card. And the June 22nd trial date is holding.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta analyzes the strategic landscape. The defense is pursuing the most extreme remedy available — full dismissal — based on the missing SD card. Even if Wilson doesn't dismiss, a spoliation instruction telling the jury that law enforcement lost evidence favorable to the defense could be devastating before the first witness is sworn. The prosecution's position relies on bodycam footage from three months before the shooting and statements Spencer allegedly made about not trusting the system.The question Motta examines: at what point does a pattern of favorable pretrial rulings start to signal how a judge sees the strength of a case? Wilson has been on this case for months. The defense has won at every turn. With less than a month until jury selection, what's the single biggest unresolved issue — and what can't the defense afford to lose?Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
