32-Year Attorney Struggles With Basic Objections as Banfield's Direct Examination Ends

John Carroll has been practicing law for over three decades. He's a former prosecutor. And yet here we are at the end of his client's direct examination, watching him ask questions he should know will get sustained, then moving on without getting the answer in. Brendan Banfield is on trial for his life. This was the defense's chance to let him tell his story. Instead, the jury watched his attorney struggle with hearsay, leading questions, and relevance objections on basic topics. The final impression before cross-examination begins? Not great. The testimony itself covers the windows, the gun safe, the night before the killing, and Banfield's denial of ever using FetLife. But the story here is what the jury saw: a veteran attorney who couldn't close. ⏰ KEY MOMENTS 00:15 - Direct examination continues 01:39 - Banfield describes collapsing, hyperventilating 04:38 - Window purchase timeline (before Juliana) 09:19 - Gun safe and how Juliana knew the code 14:11 - Night before: Christine using her own devices 22:48 - Banfield denies ever using FetLife 25:08 - Objection sustained, then again, then again 26:58 - "Did you love your wife?"

Joseph Ryan was found shot dead beside her. Brendan Banfield and au pair Juliana Peres Magalhães initially claimed self-defense, saying they discovered Ryan attacking Christine and fired to stop him. That story held for 570 days. Police found no forced entry. They found communications on FetLife between Ryan and an account in Christine's name, planning a sexual encounter involving a knife for the morning she was killed. They found a framed photo of Brendan and the au pair on his nightstand eight months later. Magalhães was arrested in October 2023. She pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter in October 2024. Under her deal, she gets time served if she testifies against Banfield, then deportation to Brazil. She's the State's star witness. Banfield was indicted in September 2024 after an investigation marked by internal conflict. The digital forensics examiner concluded Christine controlled her own accounts and was transferred out of the unit. The lead detective testified he was pressured to support the catfishing theory and was moved after the arrest. Christine Banfield was 37, a forensic nurse who spent her career helping sexual assault survivors. She left behind a four-year-old daughter who was in the house when her mother was killed. 📂 PLAYLISTS & RESOURCES 🌐 Website: https://justiceisaprocess.com ► Live Broadcasts:    • LIVE BROADCAST: VA v. Brendan Banfield   ► No Breaks Edition:    • NO BREAKS EDITION: VA v. Brendan Banfield   ► Trial Podcast:    • TRIAL PODCAST: VA v. Brendan Banfield   ► Key Moments:    • Key Moments and Testimony: VA v. Brendan B...   ► Subscribe:    / @justiceisaprocess   ⚖️ ABOUT JUSTICE IS A PROCESS This channel continues the work of Steven M.
