It sure could reach. But I posted already yesterday, and it's it day, I did some work on the photo Nel used for the cross, and I suppose it may not have looked like it could reach to Nel but but it sure did to me and when I tested, I confirmed it.
So good for Nel for upholding his oath to the court and keeping to what should be his ethical code and disclosing it to the defence just as anything exculpatory is obliged to be, but it's not only exculpatory, it's tardy, was in the states possession and should have been disclosed ages ago but even more importantly as a lesson a photo in perspective should never have been used in cross unless the State had tested it at the scene taken measurements, parallel photos, and taken into chain of custody the cord. JMHO but from a knowledge base
Actually, whether the extension cord could or could not reach is quite irrelevant…
IF the fan was to be place where OP pointed to :
1- The available slack in the extension cord would have to be pulled out from underneath the bedside table… Consequently, the cord would NOT retreat back underneath the bedside table when police moved the fan where it was shown to be on the photo… unless we are dealing with a MAGICAL cord.
2- The multi-plug at the end of the extension cord would have moved in the same direction as the fan… Consequently, the multi-plug would have been closer to the end of the bed to accommodate OP's version of where he put the fan AND then when police moved the fan where it was shown to be on the photo, the multi-plug would be facing the opposite way, it would be turned around… unless we are dealing with a MAGICAL cord.
3- The extension cord would have been at an angle : from the wall socket to the corner of the bed… Consequently, when police moved the fan, the cord would have looped on itself NOT be in a straight line from the socket to the fan… the same goes for the hair-clipper cord which would have looped.
4- The cord of the hair-clipper would have been pulled along with the multi-plug and would have been extended to accommodate the position of the fan… that clipper cord would also NOT retreat back on its own when Police moved the fan… unless we are dealing with a MAGICAL cord.
… this is precisely WHY Nel specifically said "leaving the multi-plug where it is could the fan reach the location alleged by OP"
