Now if one has sadistic tendencies, do not suppress those desires. Realise those are a product of the assent of man from their animal roots, right through till a completed human as an enlightened being. Understand those desires are primitive and will be transended.

I could never figure out why he didn’t realize he couldn’t get access to the money because the accounts could be locked and getting $500 a day via ATM isn’t going to solve his problems. As for her... listen to the tapes. They talked in code and she didn’t seem to be surprised when he made some confessions. Also when Chris got his money she called to lure him back to the apartment. He thinks he may have been targeted as the first victim. She’s clearly involved.

Another great video. Love the shirt doc!
The analysis of Rachel was excellent. She may have believed Sam was innocent at first. Had she been married to him, she would never have been required to testify at all. What a trauma to discover the truth! At worst, a suspended sentence and probation was another possibility. Had Rachel gone to a lawyer before telling detectives about the backpack, she might have been able to strike a deal. It's the innocent mind that never thinks to do that.
From what I remember ABC’s “The final act” covers this story really well. They start by focusing on Julie, start bringing in her connections to Sam and then seemingly out of left field you find out it was this Daniel guy. Which is how it happened in real life - out of nowhere. So senseless and so sad.
Great analysis!!
I am so glad you're covering this case Dr. I've been waiting for this! 😁 I remember hearing about it a few years ago and just being completely horrified at how gruesome the crime was. Looking forward to your thoughts about this guy. It seems to me he put on a facade of the person that he wanted people to believe he was, but he was far from the man that he portrayed himself to be. Terribly tragic case.

You should see his interview on an A&E. Death Row episode where he completely lies even though he had already confessed. He brings up he tried to kill himself from shame, that he is accused of killing one friend and ... decapitated another....i didnt do that.." he then looks off dramatically. Its worse knowing Julies mother happened to see the show and fainted. She was shocked because they thought there would be no trial since he confessed then he does that. Gross

An often overlooked fact in this case was that Sam suffered from PTSD and Wozniak knew this. He mentioned this to the police early on stating that he probably killed Julie in a manic state and then took off. Julie had ended her friendship with Sam once before, she had issues with erratic behavior, even his father said he had issues with PTSD. It was a perfect situation early on for Wozniak. Too bad the father pushed and pushed, knowing his son was not a killer!
