Yeah, evidence law is tricky. If the police are acting in good faith or if the crime is particularly serious a lot of things can be deemed as admissible. IMO

Do you guys remember the whole third person theory that the police had? I think it is relevant here, they probably surveilled her because they thought she was that person but had no proof until something happened. IMO

Probable cause. Unless the police expect to find something specific because they know it is there or have good reason to search someone's house they are just not allowed to search it because then whatever they find will definitely be inadmissible.

From what I understand if it is relevant to the case and it is in plain sight then I see no reason for it being inadmissible. Courts usually lean towards accepting relevant finds during searches that aren't the item requested. It's like finding drugs and a note next to them saying they are to be...

Hm, imagine being 22 with no legal background and only Google or the library as sources of information (she didn't tell any of her friends that he was in jail so they aren't likely to be sources). However, even those sources have limited usefulness since anything you search or any book you take...

The only thing that worries me about this case right now is the absence of DNA proving that it was Tim Bosma's body. I think the defence is really going to jump on that and it'll be critical for establishing their defence. Also, I think the video will be crucial in determining the path the...

Correct me if I am wrong, but I don't remember them being deemed inadmissible. When did this happen? Hypothetically speaking, if this did in fact happen then the writing in them could have been matched to his writing, unless they were typed, and thus they could be traced to him.

IMO Why would they bring a gun then? If they were planning to let him go and just take his truck, he would have been robbed at gunpoint, they would have taken the truck and TB would have gone to the police. Two guys with a stolen truck might not warrant that much police attention but once they...

It's very easy to judge the women who dated Millard for their critical thinking skills, but hindsight is 20/20, especially when you're not even the person involved in the situation. From what I have heard from personal sources, he was very kind to her and her family. Furthermore, he could easily...

Hmm, I think all those motives have in common that DM wanted something but didn't get it or couldn't have it so he got rid of the person keeping him from what he wanted. His tattoos would explain that mentality. With regards to the LB murder, there has to be a reason why she called him eight...

At this point there would be a script that she follows and she would've been coached by the Crown. Maybe, on cross-examination there could be a surprise but the Crown would not want to bring anything up that is outside their narrative. I very much doubt she'd suggest that someone else did it or...

If their defences had nothing in common than there would be two separate trials. Thus, their defences will have to have something in common, maybe both will admit to trying to steal the truck. I've been reading this forum for a while, but I've never written. I've been curious about some of the...
