I'm just imagining a few scenarios here. I wonder if down the track, in the event, say, of cw giving up the prosecution of KR ( conjectured details.but just say current appeal is successful and.for various reasons CW backs down on retrial of count two -maybe Morissey is forced to resign over longer term corruption allegations, maybe owing to outcome of fed investigation; maybe the current fed investigation into Sandra Birchmore is going to crack open probs in Mass ME office, and bring the investigative actions and inactions of cops like trooper Guiliano and possibly Bukhenic and Tulley into focus resulting in a sweep out), even if it's years down the track, would or could JOK's case be reopened and reinvestigated as a cold case? With no publicity, just quietly. This is the death of a police officer and I don't believe it will be dropped for good.jmo
Imo the starting point would be to thoroughly address the arm injuries and on the basis of expert study of photographic evidence draw the imo inevitable conclusion; a dog caused them. Idk but I believe the photographic evidence! would be sufficient for a detailed analysis ( size, depth of wounds, symmetry etc). Once investigators are convinced of the probable cause of the wounds, the next move is to look at the Albert's who had a suspect dog residing at the very location where JOK's body was found. Again Idk, but maybe in this speculated scenario, detectives or whatnot would at least have a go at interviewing some of these folks, maybe some of the minor players first. Sorry if I'm going too far here, but in circumstances where down the track a cleared out cw did become convinced that JOK was injured by a dog, could there be undercover cops used perhaps to try and draw out someone?
The other point imo is that there could be stuff we don:t know going on in the background right now. Maybe Chloe is actually alive in Vermont and defense (or in my dreams the FBI with the help of the lovely Drs Russel and Rentschler -Dr Wolf helps too in my imagination lol-) have tracked her down and made some measurements of her claws (and teeth possibly) to have compared with photographic evidence. If she:s gone then measurements taken from a dog of same breed and similar size might help. Moo
