Missed all of yesterday's discussion. Pasting a response here from previous thread.

Yes, I would imagine it is a very small percentage. Way less than 1%.
You snipped my post. My full post said, "It is true that not all adulterers commit murder; however, most men who murder their wives have also committed adultery."
I posted this as a baseline for how Michelle was valued and treated by JY. I believe that if JY had been a faithful, loving husband, then Michelle would still be alive.
JY's infidelity fits the beginning of a profile of a husband who murders his wife.

Where are you getting these times? 6:35? 11:20?
Testimony.

I agree
The missing shirt is crucial.

How unique are these soles? I've seen no data to back this up. How many shoes were sold in the US that had this sole?
Testimony yesterday showed that only 165 HP Orbitals had been made. When one includes the Sealys and the Bellevilles that had the same sole as the Orbitals which were only sold to small businesses, we may be looking at 2,000-4,000 shoes (sold in the US and abroad) that were ever made that fit the shoe print left at the scene. These are not good odds for JY.

Great question. I didn't buy JY's testimony that he didn't want to wake up neighbors. He admitted that there was no force/spring in the door and it actually stayed open without using anything to keep it from closing. Why leave your keycard in room for a trip downstairs to smoke.
And leave the door unsecured to get the computer charger. It just defies logic that JY left his valuables unsecured twice rather than close the door and take his keycard with him.

I think evidence shows that Michelle was in bed. Evidence doesn't show that an attack happened anywhere else in the house. Her work papers being scattered about seem to support this.
Also, nothing seems to indicate that a struggle occurred downstairs or any where upstairs besides the master bedroom.

Many murderers draw the line at kids. Speaking of cleaned up.... If, JY cleaned up CY, she would have been left alone in house from 3-3:30am to 1:30pm. Give me a reason for anyone to clean up kid. I assume whomever killed MY assumed kid would just get dirty again being left at crime scene. There must be another explanation for her cleanliness.
I believe that CY was cleaned up because the killer had feelings of attachment towards her. No stranger would have taken the time to clean her up, much less leave her alive.
I believed she was drugged for a great deal of the time she was left alone with her mother's body.
There was adult Tylenol, Pancof PD, and a dropper found in CY's bedroom that still had red liquid in it. The dropper had CY's DNA on it, the dropper tested positive for the adult Tylenol and Pancof PD, and there were no fingerprints on the dropper to identify who gave her the medicine.
If a parent gave her the medicine under non-suspicious circumstances, their fingerprints would have been found on the dropper.

I thought both were found to be not in their normal condition. Where is this testimony?
Michelle's purse was not plundered. The best I can tell is that it may have fallen off the counter.

Yes, it would help JY. Due to the timeline, it would have helped JY if the house had been completely gone through (downstairs and upstairs) - this takes time. Also, if 2 or 3 TVs, a DVD player, the home computer, their camera, the entire jewelry box, and other valuables had been taken, he would have had less opportunity to load it up and then dispose of it before returning to the HI.

Some dogs are not wired this way.
Maybe. It just seems unlikely that the dog would have been unresponsive to such a brutal attack.

Good question
I am not usually a big fan of stranger on stranger identification, but it is interesting that the time line fits perfectly.

Why does this matter? If you believe JY is guilty, you must believe he made it back to the hotel to push up camera.
This matters because I believe JY lied about this. If he went to the breakfast area, he should have been caught on the security camera coming down the hallway. He wasn't. Why would someone lie about their activities unless it's to cover up for something?

Not sure why this is relevant. He spoke to MM what, 400 times in this timeframe?? Chance were good that he spoke to her before and after murder.
The relevance to me is that I believe that MM knew before or after the fact what happened to Michelle. This is my opinion only. To me she seems as much as a sociopath as JY.

No idea. Not sure this helps pros in any way though.
I believe this helps the prosecution because there is not a reasonable answer as to why he would remember one and not the other. He left the Coach printout at the house as a means for MF to find CY.

Well if you believe JY its because he wanted to surprise his wife with the bag. In one of the messages he mentioned that if MF couldn't get over it was not a huge deal. If you think he's guilty its because he loved his daughter enough to get her out of there, but not much as if this were the case wouldn't he try to get his daughter out of there before noon-1:30?
If it wasn't a big deal, then why call MF twice and have your mother call her once? I believe he set this up to make sure CY was found.

No idea.
JY couldn't talk to or face his MIL because he knew that LF saw through his BS.

No surprise, no denial, no insisting that they must have gotten the news wrong. Just immediate acceptance. Remember that when LF found out, she was so shocked she couldn't even cry because she couldn't accept it yet.
Sure, because we all react exactly the same to news of our spouse's death.
I do not believe that upon hearing shocking news that anyone automatically accepts it. The brain doesn't work that way.

If he were innocent, he should have helped LE in anyway that he could have. I love my spouse, and that's what I would do, especially in this "CSI World" where we all know the spouse or significant other is the first suspect.

No one knows, was he advised? Have you ever taken a polygraph? Do you even know what it measures? How easy it is to cheat? Get false readings?
Yes, I had to take one at work one time along with many others. I passed with flying colors because I was telling the truth.
MF took one and passed it.

No idea. Was he advised to wait to pursue custody after criminal trial?
JY let his child go because it was in his best interest not to answer questions on the record. Same reason he never went after the 1MM life insurance policy.

Good question
JY never seemed the least bit concerned that the killer(s) were out wandering loose, and he never seemed the least bit concerned that the killer(s) of his wife and unborn son was/were brought to justice.

Because he was a pig?
A pig has multiple affairs. A sociopath claims he was working on his marriage while having multiple affairs.

Just not seeing it. There are definitely some points here that make it very possible JY did it and is guilty.. There is also some evidence that makes it very possible he is innocent.
I'm not seeing any evidence that makes it possible that JY is anything but guilty.
