Insofar as your recognition of CB's defence team tactics of including the MM investigation and witnesses in this one for the five trials presently underway, the question has to be asked "WHY" do that?

“When I analyse my friendship with him there’s nothing good I can take away, but one thing is also clear: CB wasn’t born a monster, he was made that way, I’m sure of that!”
