Erin Moriraity did nothing to compliment the investigators in this episode but she did manage to humiliate herself.

To make an issue out of Bryn Stewart using an aka is ridiculous; he was caught and convicted and she expounded too much on that issue. Celebrity's do it and they are not badgered over the use of an aka; follow this link

Bryan was looking for his moment in the spot light and Erin gave it to him on a silver platter. Did you read this comment posted earlier?

How about the story? The first page was full of crud about loving football; I didn't waste time reading more.

rwsmith makes a very good point and I would like to add a question to that in the same mind set.

Why is it that when Erin brings in the family, friends and neighbors that they make the story about them? Why do we have to hear about how good of a father, mother or friend that they were to the victim? All we want to know is the facts and meaning of story. The truth (not suspicion or hearsay) about the crime or something that's more reverent in the case.

We don't care to hear your idiotic questions Erin like when you said:

"Isn't it possible that Jamie's doing the same thing that Bryan did? Just vanished the same way and no one's been able to track her down?" Moriarty asked Det. Moffat.

Det. Moffat looked you with disgust and disbelief then answered;


"Are you asking me today if I believe that's possible? Absolutely not," he said. "I wholeheartedly believe...Bryan Stewart, Rick Valentini...whoever you wanna call him, murdered Jamie Laiaddee on the night of March 17th."


What in the Hell are you thinking by asking that question? After all the work that he has done are you trying to trip him up in his words so that you can give Bryan the benefit of the doubt? Are you trying to intervene and ruin results the investigation and place doubt?


It would have been interesting to watch Erin had managed to coerce
Bryan to tell us where Jamie is. He said; "we did not think that it would go this far". Who is he referring to Jamie or someone else?


I noticed that Erin seems to have a formula that she uses when she interviews people. She always asks the same obvious questions, she will say things like "You tell a lotta stories though...don't you?" or "You lied." It appears that if Erin can catch someone in a lie then she is like a blood hound and that becomes her only focus. She then labels that person as a liar, they are now guilty or a story teller in her opinion.

Erin tied (and failed) to give Bryan a stern burning look in the eye as if she is the ultimate authority; she did not even faze him and fell short of her goal to intimidate him.

Some correspondents seem to think that they are asking the tough questions and let their ego interfere with their performance. Are they really more intimidating in an interview than standing before a judge, jury and attorneys?

Erin... Please come up with a new method of reporting and use more facts than fiction or hearsay. You are an attorney and you should know that a lot of your discoveries will not hold up in court but they do qualify as gossip!

There is an easy solution to your problem with Erin Moriarty. Don't watch her. Your babblingy about Moriarty is nonsense.

Erin made her own bed with her reporting on Arturo Gatti and Tausha Fields; now she must sleep in it.

She deliberately left out information to mis-leads the public in both episodes and she seeks to destroy the reputation of a world champion that is not here to defend him-self.

She has reaped what she has sown according to the gospel;

Luke 6

Judging Others

37 "Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. 38 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you."

Matthew 7:1-5

Judging Others

1 "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
3 "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in someone else's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from the other person's eye.

You are absolutely amazing. You are judging Erin Moriarty while accusing her of judging others.

I dont buy his story at all. If your about to go to prision wouldnt you plead to Jamie to come forward to clear your..umm..double name? He is alittle too confident and arrogant that the public and courts would believe his story so much in fact that he takes the stand and his testamony sounded to me alittle too rehersed, and his body mannerisms too direct towards the public and not the person asking the question...not that means anything but using someones credit card claiming they gave you permission because they are going to go on and assume a different idenity and they dont want to be found...thats just stupid folks! If your so intelligent you wouldnt your name to be linked to someone who just falls off the face of the earth, who doesnt want to be found...even if that was the whole 100% truth of what happened you still wouldnt want to be linked to that person. Because to her family, her friends she is missing, to them Jamie wouldnt just go missing...but to him someone she dated for 3 years give or take thats what she wanted. I dont buy it, that she wanted to go missing, that she wanted him to use her credit cards, that she wanted him to drive around in her suv, that she wanted him to move to Denver...I think she found out what a dog he is and decided to drop him but he found a way to despose of her. His demeaner/attitude reminds me of someone who is self centered and likes to be always right, if he has to lie to appear more important then he is he does it without blinking a eye.

Two things can be checked on, the supposed $100,000 transaction he claims she made out of her fathers bank account and the emails and phone records he claims they had since she "disappeared".

Rick aka Bryan: Narcissistic personality disorder is a condition in which people have an inflated sense of self-importance and an extreme preoccupation with themselves.

A person with narcissistic personality disorder may:
React to criticism with rage, shame, or humiliation
Take advantage of other people to achieve his or her own goals
Have excessive feelings of self-importance
Exaggerate achievements and talents
Be preoccupied with fantasies of success, power, beauty, intelligence, or ideal love
Have unreasonable expectations of favorable treatment
Need constant attention and admiration
Disregard the feelings of others, and have little ability to feel empathy
Have obsessive self-interest
Pursue mainly selfish goals

I think he's innocent because they haven't found a body. Plus I think he is not smart enough to do it.

I agree with alot of the commentary here about B.S. this man was no doubt a cunning psychopath, most likely also delusional and highly narcissistic. I have run across people like this in my 44 yrs on this planet and I can tell you from my own perspective that these individuals are so self-focused they do not care one iota about anything but their own agendas, criminal or borderline criminal. I hope this guy rots in prison for what he did, and hope he enjoys every sad day behind bars in a maximum detention facility.

Nostrovia says:
He had no answers... His answers and gestures sounded false. When in the stand he wanted to make like it was the most natural thing a person to simply disappear... because he did it. And there was an HUGE detachment from her... like there were no feelings about her or her disappearance. And the most upfront and notorious characteristic in a person (psychopath or with other traits of personality) that has the capability of doing this it's always that lack of emotions... the distance and dehumanization... and when there are emotions - It's just fake... and we can smell that from a distance.

Wow, between the comments left by Ballmouse and Transatlantique you both seem like you are actually Brian/Rick or you must be as demented as him. I am a level headed person and if my partner dissapeared I would have been freaking out in a big way. This moron/idiot used her cards to meet other women online. He had all her ID cards. Nothing of hers was missing or packed. And think hard now boys!!! If he was really innocent and had a way with his personal computer to locate this woman, why would he sacrifice his life in prison?? Especially if he knew a secret e-mail site to contact her? I work in mental health, and he is psychotic. I am sure the system has administered their own testing somehow. And I really hope he wastes no more tax money on an apeal. REALLY! Idiot, do you think you would win??? Oh' yeah, he would think that, he is psychotic. And BTW idiots, the jury and people residing over this case based their decisions on the actions and behaviour of the defendant Normal people can see coruption and evil and common sence gave them the ability to find him guilty. It was not because he was a man, it was because he was a murderer. And many parents strive to have their children succeed. Some of us are harder then others, it does not make us bad parents, we just want the best for our children. I commend her family and friends who never gave up and knew his guilt. God bless them all and I hope karma prevails and they find her body.

I believe that you misinterpret the message that they are trying to convey. It's about the legal justice system and our rights as American citizens. No facts, no proof, no evidence, no conviction! That's what our judicial system is supposed to be based on.

The day will come when you will be wrongfully accused, judged, tried and convicted without evidence. Then you will understand the meaning of the wrongfully convicted. This sort of thing happens every day in daily life, at work, in relationships with family members you may get cited for speeding etc. It may be your spouse, best friend, employer or the judge that will not believe your testimony; but just because you lack the ability to give an intelligent answer does not mean you are guilty.

When that day comes remember that you disapprove of the justice system; so don't complain if your life goes into tail spin. Have you ever heard judge not lest you be judged?

Now before you insult me, give me an opportunity to post my evaluation of the case and remember this;

If all humanity was to be judged today for our own deeds then our only hope would be for

Mercy Not Justice

Because No One, not one person, is righteous in the sight of GOD!
