Real Life Real Crime | Attorney C. D’Aquila Breaks Down the Jacob Mansell Case – Part 1 May 15, 2026

Show notes

In this episode of Real Life Real Crime, Woody Overton takes a different approach and dives into the controversial Jacob Mansell case with defense attorney C. D’Aquila.

Woody explains that he normally stays away from politics and ongoing court cases, but after social media exploded with reactions to recent news coverage, he felt listeners needed to hear another side of the story.

Woody and D’Aquila break down the timeline surrounding the custody battle, allegations made during family court proceedings, and the criminal charges later filed against Jacob Mansell.

Topics discussed include:

The original custody dispute between Jacob Mansell and his ex-wife
Protective orders filed during the custody battle
Allegations involving inappropriate touching made against the child’s grandfather
Multiple CAC (Child Advocacy Center) interviews conducted during the investigation
Concerns documented by investigators and the care team about possible coaching or outside influence
Why detectives repeatedly interviewing the child outside CAC procedures raises major concerns
Court-appointed forensic psychologist Dr. Alan Taylor’s findings regarding severe parental alienation
Claims that the children appeared completely normal around their father before suddenly becoming hysterical around their mother
The affidavit used to obtain arrest warrants for sexual battery and second-degree rape charges
Why D’Aquila believes the affidavit left out critical information from earlier interviews
Judge Betsy Jones later reversing custody arrangements and returning temporary custody of the children back to the father

Throughout the episode, Woody repeatedly stresses the importance of protecting children while also making sure investigations follow proper procedures designed to prevent outside influence and unreliable testimony.

Woody also explains how emotional reactions from parents during custody disputes can unintentionally influence children over time.

This is Part 1 of Woody’s conversation with attorney C. D’Aquila.
