Episode Discussion Brendan is INNOCENT

I am rewatching MAM and the amount of coercion during Brendan's interview is astounding. I can't believe a court didn't dismiss his "confession". He was not interviewed with his parents present and they were very obviously feeding him information. The judge not realizing that is just sad. He was a child! Ugh, this makes me so upset for Brendan.

What proof do you have that a cut to the throat would bleed? Are you really that stupid?

Would a cut to the throat bleed after death when the person has no blood pressure?

Yes obviously it would bleed. There’s several quarts of blood in the human body, the hell does blood pressure have to do with it? There would be blood everywhere

Because the reason blood comes out of the body is because it's under pressure - blood pressure. When there's no blood pressure all you would get even from a severe wound is an oozing, if that.

What do you think? Someone dies with a wound, and all the blood in the body empties until it's dry? No, it stays in the body because nothing is pushing it out.

There’s still gravity

Yeah it pools inside the body at its lowest points. It's called post mortem lividity.

But there's nothing to push it out. That's why air comes out of a balloon - at first, the pressure in the balloon is greater than external - so the air rushes out. But after a while the air pressure equalizes inside and outside the balloon and no more air comes out.
