I mean, the most likely explanation is that the witness just didn’t rush to the bridge and back. I don’t find it particularly strange that someone may have taken their time strolling along a trail. MOO

I'm honestly just wondering if it was a misunderstanding of what "cellular resources that provide coverage to the area of 1122 King Road" means in the PCA. MOO

Yeah, the main idea I was trying to convey is only actual interactions with the system are usually logged. It would be insane to log just any WiFi card within signal range, especially places next to busy thoroughfares. And thinking about it more, I’m not sure how technically feasible that would...

That’s how I took it, but I’m not sure there’s anything of substance to back up the claim (other than obviously he’s close enough to join their WiFi when he’s inside the house committing a quadruple homicide). In my experience/opinion, routers won’t keep logs of any device that could potentially...

I personally think he very carefully planned a lot of this out and did choose to cross state lines and attack at a different university because it would distance the homicide from himself. He also had an out of state plate until shortly after the murders, when he picked up Washington plates...

It feels to me like the extent of sharing between campuses is being over-exaggerated. They have a co-op program where students from UI can take specific classes at WSU and vice versa. If you do this, you get access to the opposite’s resources because you get admitted as a non-degree student. But...

It may be a way to try and “impeach” the cell phone records. “Yeah, it says that, but I was out driving around… so it’s wrong. And can we really believe all of the datapoints with that in mind?” I don’t think such an argument would be anywhere near successful. JMO

Why do you think it makes no sense to cite that case? The court ruled that they were not going to compel the prosecution to chase down the FBI and demand their records. If that’s not relevant to the state’s case, then nothing will ever be. JMO

Just a couple of points out of this: Defense attorneys use this type of language all the time. They would be pretty bad defense attorneys if they weren't trying to cast doubt over every part of the process possible... I don't find it remarkable that this defense attorney is doing exactly that...

Right... there seems to be a lot of conflation occurring between the DNA processing and analysis and IGG... not sure if that's intentional or not, but it's certainly a head-scratcher. From the motion for protective order: This is, IMO, very clear and leaves little that is open to interpretation.

Is there an actual source to him having actual OCD (not just "eating OCD" or whatever his aunt claimed) or is this just massive speculation to force a circular peg into a square hole?

He was already on their radar. He was made a suspect because the evidence looked good for him committing the crime. He wasn’t a suspect merely because FBI passed them a lead. That’s not how leads work. There had to be substantive evidence pointing to his guilt for them to move forward. This is...

I’m also not sure how true the assertion is that it was only touch DNA. The defense is the only one that has claimed this. It seems like the state was able to develop quite a genetic profile, something I wouldn’t expect from a tiny amount of touch DNA. If it was something beyond touch DNA, like...

It’s fortunate, then, that a probable cause affidavit only establishes probable cause. They’re not looking to prove beyond a reasonable doubt in a probable cause affidavit. They’re looking to show… probable cause. Which they obviously did, as the warrant was signed and he was arrested pursuant...

Not to mention the state has readily said they will share whatever the court mandates they share, and requested an in-camera hearing if that is the case so the court can see exactly what the materials are and make any further decisions as warranted. If they were trying to be as sneaky and shady...

What weak evidence? And why are you under the impression that there is no significant evidence proving he is the right suspect? Do you believe it's a massive coincidence that he matches the eyewitness' physical description, a car matching his car was seen on surveillance cameras in the area of...

The motion for protective order by the state makes it clear that they did not use IGG to establish probable cause against BK, nor did they introduce it at grand jury, nor did they intend to introduce any of the elements they wish to protect at trial. Probable cause either exists or it doesn’t...

It’s not like a student turning in math homework with answers only. It’s like a parent walking up while the student is doing their homework, points out that a problem is incorrect, and the student goes back and corrects the problem while still continuing to show and document their work. IGG was...

In my opinion, the problem with this argument is twofold: 1 - the TOS is not a legally binding document. Police can violate terms of service on social media, for instance, to surveil suspects. That particular type of behavior has been upheld plenty of times, even when the covert account was...
