Prosecutors say the evidence speaks for itself: searches about body disposal in the early morning hours, trips to multiple stores buying tools that prosecutors argue were used to dispose of Anna, lies told to friends, family, and police, and physical evidence recovered from a trash facility far from home — evidence they say directly connects Brian to a deliberate cover-up.
The defense counters with a different story entirely. They say Anna died suddenly. Naturally. Tragically. And Brian, terrified the authorities would seize his children, made the worst decision of his life — hiding her death instead of reporting it. Not planning. Not malice. Fear.
But jurors must decide not just which story makes sense — but which story they can live with. Can sudden, unexplained death explain Google searches that happened before the alleged death window? Can panic explain purchasing gloves, masks, tarps, and cutting tools all over Massachusetts? Can panic explain a disposal process so elaborate it spanned multiple towns?
The defense doesn’t need a full acquittal. They just need one person willing to say, “I don’t know. It’s bizarre, but maybe.” That’s the real battleground.
Tonight we break down the evidence, the psychology, the storytelling, and the stakes — and ask the question that may decide this entire trial: How much doubt is enough?

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
