You can prefer what you like, but your preference may not be what actually happened. And you may not have the full facts, and you don't here. The principal really deals with odds, not conclusions, and only when full facts are in evidence. It's a misuse of the principal to use it when you're missing so many facts.

I'm still waiting for actual photos of the taillight before it landed improperly at the Canton PD sallyport garage. The poor quality video of it being pulled from Dighton clearly shows a lot of red and fits much more with Kerry Roberts testimony (who by the way, did not hear "I hit him") that there was only a small hole in the taillight.

Why weren't clear "before" photos taken of her taillight before it was manipulated? This one should have been a no-brainer. And yet, we haven't seen them.

Why weren't taillight searches and "finds" over the coming days documented? Why didn't the Canton Police find a single place during the early search?

Why is the prosecution making such a deal over glass pieces that don't match?

Why is the lead prosecutor - the one who "collected" the vast majority of evidence - unable to testify?

And let's not forget we've got a lot of people who have lied and been evasive on the stand, and some intentionally destroyed evidence. Why?

How did a taillight on it's own knock a 220 pound man sideways, never mind knock him 12 feet sideways? There's no body damage to the vehicle.

How did a taillight on it's own cause all of the documented injuries?

How does a drunk woman back up over 60 feet at 24 mph on a curve and hit a stationary target who for some reason decides to stand and the road in wait for it to happen?

Again, prefer what you want. But you can't apply Occam's razor without addressing the above.

Stunning summary! Beautiful post!

Here is the drinking straw Bukhenik says his team found on the roadway outside 34 Fairview Rd on Feb 3, 2022.

Bukhenik says his team found this piece of "flimsy" circular plastic at the scene.

The evidence collection is so contrived and basically undocumented. No photos or evidence markers or rulers next to pieces found in the yard. And then hand delivered, mostly by proctor on various days, evidence that could have been anywhere. And now we are told, after all this time, he is not really the lead detective but only a part of the team. JMOO

The apparent arrogance of Lally is beginning to get to me! And his apparent complete lack of self consciousness as to the impression he is making.jmo Also it is really, really irritating that he appears to assume that the testimony of this Bukhenik, including unqualified anatomical/medical opinions, should be taken by the jury as factual when most of it is simply him stating his opinion with no back up. As already noted re that blatantly casual statement along the lines of 'cant see damage to JO's car, no red pieces in video'... so what??...is jury sposed to take that as fine/ok/a fact and just move on? Look at how dark it is and snow swirling all over the effing place on top of video graininess. Come on now, it's just arrogant, lazy, semi insulting and unprofessional imo for Lally not to provide the jury with real evidence or integral info to back up his witness as if it is unnecessary. Annoyed ! moo

Here is O'Keefe's ballcap found under the snow. In the second photo, the cap is visible on the right side at ground level.

John O'Keefe's ball cap, bearing an American flag, was located Feb 3 under a snow pile. Police used shovels to find it.

I'd rather watch paint dry than watch planted plastic pieces being entered as evidence.Or a hat that should have been found in an inch or two of snow instead of feet of packed snow.JMOO

Just sayin, because I watch too many trials, but WHERE is the photo of the crime scene, depicting the entire area...with yellow placard cards placed where each item was found? You know, like a wide view? Maybe showing a pattern?

We see zoomed in photos only, and very few of them even have a measuring device next to it.

Geez. What slop ! It only adds to the tainted investigation theory, IMO.
