Don't care about the writing expert, once she started talking about the numbers etc it got into the woo woo. As the frmr. FBI agent said the central question actually is: How did the letters continue if he was in solitary? Either there were two and he got help in prison which is hard to believe that he could get someone to post 100s of letters for him IMO. This also has logistical issues, handwriting would be different and it also leaves room for a snitch later on. Or Occam's razor: He wasn't the writer. Paul also does not fit the profile of a guilty person in how he acted during investigation, there is also the witness account of the El Camino to talk about too. There's at least enough reasonable doubt for Paul to not have been convicted of this IMO. I think the Sheriff's office was too eager to close the case, and sadly the jury agreed.

@ArmenianKingdom March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

48 hours should get rid of this boring old women

@FondledByDiddy March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

18:45 that Snorlax aunt?

@CarrenJoan March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

What happened after his death. Soyle

@margcan March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Well, that's sad that they don't do DN.A and forgot who really wrote the letters.That would approve it, you can't write letters why you're in prison.It's just not, you can't. They read everything before it goes out

@margcan March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

I know we're all thinking this as we watched the show.But what have been easy to d n a those letters

@PatriciaRobin-ec3ee March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Circleville, really? Sounds like a Town in a Seuss children's book a very bizarre one at that. Unsolved mystery proving evil hides itself well sticks together.

@anthonytrujillo9596 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

With all that evidence they have, won’t they attempt to collect DNA from the envelopes, stamps, the gun, etc…???

@redshed2020 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

I always thought it was the ex wife.

@Jimbodini112 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Take away the violent threats in the letters…its “awful” to expose the awful things people are doing according to Erin Moriarity. 🙄

@i_am_kellz March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Dearest gentle readers…

@countzacula0121 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

I don’t think Paul Freshour had anything to do with the Letters or the trap.
This has,”Hell Hath No Fury Like a Woman Scorned written all of over it.”

@matthewsuleski6565 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

It wasn't Paul. It was his wife at the time.

@kativilaga March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Was there anymore letters after his death? They didn't mention that…

@paige_on_YT March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Always been one of my favorite “mystery” cases Super bizarre

@mustelina March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

When did the letters stop?

@GoGreen-l7e March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

The most agresuse acts from a parent is when you use your kids for your own self interest. Shame on parents who do that. How despicable and selfish.

@nunyabusiness5275 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

I've been to prison. There's no way that Paul was able to smuggle hundreds of letters from inside. Especially if the prison kept him in isolation. But it is curious that they stopped once he got out

@Countrygirlsierra March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

This is kinda creepy this is in my backyard

@Geronimo2Fly March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

He had connections inside the prison system. He probably just knew someone who mailed the letters for him.

@krisbatalla March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

The writer has a lot of time in her hands.

@SoTheresThat2 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

I had to start this over 4 times. Don’t take your attention off it for even a minute or you’ll be lost.

@JHVT44 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

A woman almost gets shot in the head and his take is…”what a great story!” Spoken like a true reporter.

I wonder if he would have thought the same if that was his daughter/wife/sister.

@JackBeNimble-fb1fn March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Its obviously the wife of Freshour, she had 10 hours a day to write that crap, had inside details only someone close to Freshour would have, had the creepy son she had influence over, and the dude was in prison and not send no letters for 10 years & his wife had access to envelopes & paper he may've touched at home.

@upclady60 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Paul worked in as a prison guard for 10 years ,he had no problem getting those letters smuggled.

@gib59er56 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Anyone ever ask themselves, "Di I think killers or serial killers watch thes 48hrs episodes too?" Think about it: it would be very possible for them for some sick thrill. Sorry for misspell.

@Utube1948 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

If drugs, weapons and women can be snuck in and out of prisons, letters certainly could have quite easily.

@blakebreedlove3867 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

This Mayhew woman seems clueless.

@girlmostlovely March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Thank for video

@KirkanJohnson March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

And while he was locked up were the letters still coming or they had stopped

@KirkanJohnson March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

So his gun was stolen but he didn't reported it to the police

@puppydog8977 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Clearly the writer can not spell …….

@rraefyn March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

That spiral necklace disturbs me.

@gbean229 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

The writer had too much free time.

@Youcef8830 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

i love the "I'm not wrong" from the hand writing expert.

@brianmaitai7685 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

19:04…Kinda looks like "JABBA THE HUT".

@patbone8046 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

So, did the letters Stop when Paul died?

@greggfoy894 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

I stopped paying attention for a few minutes. Now my head is spinning.

@davidroe64 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

OK, YOU GOT ME…I ADMIT IT…I WROTE THE LETTERS.

@chronicwhisper March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Paul wrote the letters but his wife set the trap with help

@selinakwamini825 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

This would make a dope mini series…I am seeing Reese Witherspoon like she did in little fires

@TheKissyfer March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Was the handwriting of Karen Sue, her son or her boyfriend ever analyzed? So much of this story points to her. What about the wife of the dude Mary was having an affair with?

@shirl974 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Karen Sue 💯

@jodif916 March 12, 2025 - 12:29 pm

Happy new year 🥳 2025
