The remark that Hannah made about her prior pimp abusing her is a hint that Hannah knew that Tresa might spill on her own abusive husband that she killed. This is a remarkable bit of intelligence that the interviewers must have been informed about, perhaps by an internal source. A wild idea I have is that the FBI was the source of this intelligence, and they passed it on to Breitbart to publicize the rotten ACORN, since it might be easier to fight this fight on television using Fox rather than being hamstrung by the higher levels of the FBI, the Attorney General and Obama. The next three videos will prolly nail Obumma directly.

On an earlier link bloggers have located court records showing that incidents occurred in 2007 and 2008 resulting in first her husband being restrained, then her being restrained. With this much paper going, it is more likely that she was blowing smoke. She probably “wished” she had shot him.

No statute of limitations on murder. If she hasn’t been tried before, she would be fair game today.

If in fact there was a trial, jeopardy would be attached. However, this woman (at least to me) came across as a pathological liar.

There is no statute of limitations on murder. Unless she pled guilty to a lesser crime or went to trial and was aquitted, she could still be charged and her confession could probably be used against her.

My guess is that if she killed her husband, she was never prosecuted because the police and the DA felt that she had acted in self defense. Well, she just admitted that she did not act in self defense. But I suspect she is just a serial liar and never killed anyone.

I don’t think this woman was charged with murder in the first place, so double jeopardy would be moot.

I have always been curious to know what the ultimate goal of the American legal system is — justice or truth? Which of the two virtues is more important in a society?

It is highly unlikely she was tried already. If so she can not be tried again. She could be tried for depriving him of his civil rights. However, if she was never tried this tape would be a confession. I personally think she was lying.

If the police dismissed the case as self defense, it can be tried since she would never have been tried before. If she went to trial and they found her not guilty by reason of self defense, then, no she can’t be tried. However, Beck was quick to say they couldn’t confirm if she had a husband that died by gunshot, they called the police to check and the police refused to answer one way or another. This covers Becks butt and the couple if anyone tries to say they were accusing her of something when she just made it up. Some people brag about crap. However, I am betting she was telling the truth.

Doesn’t take a lawyer. If no one knew she was the one who killed him then she can certainly be arrested. Otherwise, she offered nothing in the tape that would be of any use in a trial if the case was dismissed or never brought to trial because the prosecutors believed the killing was justified.

If she had been tried before, and the trial ended in a verdict, she cannot be tried again due to double jeopardy.

If the trial ended in a mistrial called or caused by the defendant, she could be tried again, but there are time constraints on this.

If she had not been tried, the unfortunate legal fact is she could not be tried on her confession alone. There would have to be other evidence of the crime before her confession could be admitted (corpus delecti rule).
