  • Todd Mullis Trial: Michael Mullis & Michael Krogmann Testimony | True Crime Documentary
    2026/09/26
    Some murder trials are decided not by a single piece of evidence, but by testimony that completely changes how investigators—and eventually a jury—view the case. The trial of Todd Mullis became one of Iowa's most shocking courtroom battles after prosecutors argued that the death of Amy Mullis had been staged to look like a tragic farming accident.In this gripping True Crime Documentary, we examine the complete timeline of the investigation, the forensic evidence surrounding the infamous corn rake, and the courtroom testimony that became central to the prosecution's case. Special attention is given to the testimony of Michael Mullis and Michael Krogmann, whose appearances in court became key moments as jurors evaluated the evidence presented during the trial. Through police interviews, crime scene analysis, forensic findings, and courtroom records, we break down how detectives challenged Todd Mullis's claim that Amy had accidentally fallen onto the farm tool. Investigators pointed to multiple puncture wounds, internet search history, and other evidence that prosecutors argued showed planning rather than accident. What You'll Discover
    • The timeline of Amy Mullis's final day.
    • The controversial corn rake evidence.
    • Michael Mullis's courtroom testimony.
    • Michael Krogmann's testimony and its impact.

    In 2019, a jury convicted Todd Mullis of first-degree murder, sentencing him to life in prison without parole. His conviction was upheld on appeal, and in 2026 an Iowa court rejected his post-conviction challenge, allowing the conviction to stand. This documentary focuses on verified evidence, courtroom testimony, and the investigative process while honoring the victim and presenting the case with respect rather than sensationalizing the tragedy.Viewer discretion is advised.

She also described injuries to Amy's face, hands, and knees that investigators considered significant during the homicide investigation.Throughout the trial, the defense challenged aspects of the prosecution's theory, while prosecutors relied heavily on forensic evidence and expert testimony.

  • Todd Mullis Trial: The Closing Arguments That Decided Everything | True Crime Documentary
    2026/09/26
    Some murder trials come down to a single question: which story does the evidence support? In the final hours of the Todd Mullis trial, prosecutors and defense attorneys delivered dramatically different explanations for the death of Amy Mullis, leaving jurors to decide whether it was a calculated murder or whether reasonable doubt still remained.In this gripping True Crime Documentary, we break down the powerful closing arguments that brought one of Iowa's most controversial murder trials to its climax. Through courtroom testimony, forensic evidence, crime scene analysis, digital records, and the attorneys' final presentations, we examine how each side tried to persuade the jury before deliberations began.Prosecutors argued that Todd killed Amy with a corn rake after learning about her affair and fearing he could lose millions of dollars in a divorce. They pointed to multiple puncture wounds, internet searches about killing unfaithful spouses, and inconsistencies in Todd's explanation that Amy had simply fallen onto the farm tool. The defense agreed Amy had been murdered but argued the State never proved Todd was the killer. They challenged the lack of direct physical evidence, questioned witness credibility, and argued that Todd's 911 call and attempts to help his wife were inconsistent with the prosecution's theory. What You'll DiscovAfter hearing the closing arguments and receiving the judge's instructions, the jury found Todd Mullis guilty of first-degree murder, and he was sentenced to life in prison without parole.
