Aaron Spencer Murder Defense Explained—Can "Defense of Others" Win This Case? | Bob Motta

Strip away the judicial drama, and Aaron Spencer still faces a second-degree murder charge for killing Michael Fosler. The prosecution says he committed murder. The defense says he saved his 14-year-old daughter from a man who was out on bond for allegedly raping her—a man with 43 pending counts including sexual assault, internet stalking of a child, and possession of child pornography. A man who had no business being anywhere near that child. Spencer told authorities Fosler lunged at him with something in his hand after Spencer rammed his truck off the road at 1 a.m. The daughter was inside Fosler's vehicle. She'd gone missing from her bedroom after midnight. The prosecution already won a Rule 404(b) motion allowing statements Spencer allegedly made three months before the shooting—"I'll kill him if he comes near her again" territory. That's the premeditation evidence they're building on. Defense attorney Bob Motta joins me to break down the actual murder charge, how strong it is on its face, and what the defense needs to establish for self-defense or defense-of-others to work. We examine how Spencer's prior statements could be countered, whether Fosler's criminal history helps or hurts, and the prosecution's argument that Spencer should have just called 911. We also address the political layer—Spencer is running for Lonoke County Sheriff while awaiting trial, and his opponent reportedly worked with Judge Elmore for over a decade. This is expert legal analysis on defending a father who killed his daughter's alleged rapist. #AaronSpencer #BobMotta #SecondDegreeMurder #SelfDefense #DefenseOfOthers #MichaelFosler #LononkeCounty #Rule404b #MurderTrial #HiddenKillers Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ ​Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
