In emotional testimony, Magalhaes apologized through tears — but the court wasn’t persuaded. FOX 5’s Bob Barnard breaks down what happened inside the courtroom, the powerful victim impact statements, the judge’s pointed rebuke of the plea deal, and what this means for Brendan Banfield’s upcoming sentencing.

    Day 11: No Verdict Yet After Closing Arguments
    Jan 30 2026
    It was a packed house in court today as attorneys delivered closing arguments, followed by four hours of jury deliberation with no verdict yet. With their star witness Juliana Magalhães (the family’s au pair), digital footprints, blood forensics and more, prosecutors told jurors Brendan Banfield killed his wife Christine and Joe Ryan, a stranger he lured to their home to set up as a fall guy. The defense countered that the au pair's testimony was bought and paid for, and that Banfield declared under oath that he's innocent. Will the verdict be reached on Monday? Tune in next week to see.
