Powerful opening statements in the Hollywood overdose murder trial. David Pierce sent Brandt Osborne on trial for
00:00:12
the deaths of two women, model Christy Giles and her architect friend Hilda Cabrales. This trial will not change
00:00:20
what happened and will not bring my sister back or Christy. Christy's plan for the evening was to go
00:00:27
out with some friends and have a fun night. Aloha. My name is Jan Cilliers and Christy was
00:00:34
my wife. Christy loved to spread joy and laughter wherever she went. Hilda Massola just moved from Mexico.
00:00:46
She seemed very lovely and they were becoming fast friends. My sister did enjoy going out to
00:00:55
parties. She liked dancing and the music. I remember seeing her Instagram. She was
00:01:01
posting stories of that night. She sent me a couple of text messages. Her last text message to me was around
00:01:09
1:00 or 2:00 a.m. And throughout the day I was trying to text her and there was no response. You're tracking Christy's
00:01:16
phone. Yeah. Is this an address that you recognize? It's not an address I know. Around 5:00 p.m. I saw her location had
00:01:24
suddenly moved to an emergency room hospital. My level of panic was growing and growing.
00:01:31
I just knew that I had to try and get to the bottom of what happened. You blast out this address.
00:01:38
And very quickly you get responses. Yeah. What are those responses? That there's somebody that lives at this
00:01:44
location that is a very unsavory person. David Pierce. Yeah. He passed himself off as a big shot
00:01:51
Hollywood producer, but he was a con man with an alleged history of sexual assault.
00:02:00
It wasn't clear what happened. We just knew she overdosed and to me my reaction was who did this to her? So when you
00:02:09
heard overdose, you immediately thought drugged. Yeah, drugged. Definitely not something that she would
00:02:17
have done to herself ever. It's just not her. Got a call at home. Apparently overdose.
00:02:25
Christy she she was deceased. Hilda was still on life support at that time. I give as much information as I can to
00:02:31
the detectives. Jan had put a number of things out on social media and it spread
00:02:35
like wildfire. People recognize this guy right away and they were urged to to call us.
00:02:43
Authorities say seven more women had come forward claiming Pierce sexually assaulted them as well.
00:02:49
Jane Doe number one. Jane Doe number two. Jane Doe number three. Number four. Number five. Number six. Number seven.
00:02:56
Being a Jane Doe, we are the voice of both Christy and Hilda because they can't talk. Defendant Pierce wanted them
00:03:04
to die. He wanted them to die because dead girls don't talk.
