About this listen
Jacques Mossler, a prominent financier known as "King of the Installment Loans", was brutally murdered in his Key Biscayne apartment. Suspicion quickly fell upon Melvin Lane Powers, the shady nephew of Mossler's wife Candace. When investigators discovered that "Candy and Mel" were carrying on an incestuous love affair, the pair were charged with the crime.
The Miami trial featured the legendary defense attorney, Percy Foreman, whose outrageous tactics created a number of memorable moments. A colorful parade of prosecution witnesses shared tales of recruiting hit men, and the unusual relationship between the glamorous aunt and her nephew.
No One Is Perfect is a thoroughly researched account of the landmark trial and the life of its chic blonde defendant.

Story
On a clear autumn morning in 2004, Rachel O'Reilly, a 30-year-old mother of two, was brutally battered to death in her home. It was a merciless killing that stunned the small, trusting community where she lived and devastated her close-knit family. In the days that followed the discovery of her body, it was thought that Rachel was the victim of a bungled robbery attempt. It soon emerged, however, that police investigating the case believed Rachel had known her killer and that her murder had been carefully planned months in advance.

It seemed like the perfect romantic afternoon: a kayaking trip for two on the Hudson River. But it ended in tragedy when beautiful, blonde Angelika Graswald called 911 to report that her fiance, the handsome and athletic Vincent Viafore, had fallen into the choppy frigid waters. Authorities assumed it was an accident. But when the bereft bride-to-be posted videos of herself doing cartwheels on social media - shortly before Vincent's body was found - suspicions of murder rose to the surface.

Story
For 10 years, the California Interstate 5 highway was haunted by a dangerous serial killer. Incredibly skilled at staying ahead of the investigators as the bodies started to pile up, there wasn't enough evidence to charge the culprit with murder even once he'd been identified. Instead, they had to build a first-degree murder case in a few months while the killer was locked up on an assault conviction. Key to this was a cast of four: Vito Bertocchini, Kay Maulsby, Ray Biondi, and Faye Springer.

Candace Mossler is quite the narcissistic manipulator
I never heard of this case since I was born in 1959, but even without the new forensic science to support the case…. They had it right.
Ms. Mossler used anyone and everyone to deflect guilt. Her children were pulled into her alibi and were told what to say.
Yet the fact that she was in an incestuous relationship with her nephew is unbelievable. She showed no remorse and a narcissist has no feelings.
The details of how the detectives solved this case shows their dedication to avenging Mr Mossler death.
The Virtual Voice is easy to listen to but, when Vincent Cartocheroni (sp) is said it’s quite entertaining.

Make use of the fast forward button.
There's a lot of background information that seems superfluous. However the story (apart from the unnecessarily verbose histories) is solid. I'm not a fan of virtual voice, it's definitely lacking in...well, humanity. It sounds like one of the voices that lists medication side effects instead of a person reading a story about human behavior.
