David didn't have any connection to where Marie's body was found, but Lenny did. According to police reports, David
00:00:07
and Marie argued the day that she was last seen alive. Apparently, she was seeing someone else, so there was motive
00:00:13
there, too. And he had been abusive to her. [music] He'd even strangled her just a few months earlier, and it left
00:00:20
her so scared that she moved out of his place and stayed with a friend. Not to mention, the morning after that wedding
00:00:26
they were at together, David called Marie's family saying that she didn't come home and asking if she was with
00:00:32
them. And that even struck them as odd because he didn't usually check in like that. Ultimately, ADA Burke decides to
00:00:40
put this all to a grand jury. And he does this in March of 1982. He's going to present what they have in Marie's
00:00:46
case and let them decide whether to bring charges against David or Lenny. And in his opinion, David was a
00:00:54
sympathetic witness. He answers every question, he owns up to what he did, and he claims that he cried for Marie when
00:01:00
he was alone. And most importantly, according to Burke, David didn't have any connection to where Marie's body was
00:01:07
found, but Lenny did. Again, he sold fish to that lobster company, and I guess the grand jury agrees because they
00:01:14
chose and on July 6th, 1982, he's arrested for Marie's murder and remains locked away until his trial [music] is
00:01:22
set to begin.
