Can you site any sources to back these claims up (re: the blood loss and what an experienced ME should be able to state)?

With what we know of the level of his hatred and wanting AL to suffer - I think, sadly, it's entirely possible that when he realized he had NO too, that this was an extra level of pain and suffering he could extract. What better way to cause the ultimate suffering to this man - to murder his...

So about 20 mins from the Likness house to the psychiatrist. About 35 mins from Likness house to Airdrie.

He sure took a risk going to his psych appointment. It's not like it would give him an alibi - I wonder why he went to it.

That's chilling. He's going down.

This leaves a big question mark about the time between 5 and 8am. Were they already deceased when he arrived at the farm and he just dumped them there? Then went to his appointment and stopped by the crime scene on the way?? Why even go to the app? Were they alive upon arrival at the farm and he...

WTH did he go back at 8 am? I guess it's not uncommon for a perp to return to the scene of the crime. So he went to Airdrie, then drove all the way back? What happened between 5am and 8am?

Great catch. And horrifying if that's the case.

Heartbreaking.

This makes me seethe with rage. Poor JO, having to hear that.

Can they not DNA a tooth root? Anyway - that's promising testimony.

It's difficult to say whether he was only half-heartedly trying to conceal the crime or if he just got overwhelmed and exhausted and didn't expect to be caught that soon. He certainly researched a LOT on how to avoid being caught, but then left some pretty enormous and glaring pieces of...

Precisely.

No, no it does not.

You are speculating and acting as an expert yourself when you aren't, and you weren't there to see the blood yourself. Sorry, I'll take the word of the medical examiner who was actually at the scene over someone on the internet who really has no idea. Her not being psychic and not able to...

No, it's perfectly acceptable for an expert witness to declare "maybe". They don't disqualify a witness's opinion simply because they don't have a definite yes or no answer. She could have stated her opinion either way, but she was being honest in that she just can't know, that either scenario...

Regarding the "why not?" as to why she couldn't say for sure that they were alive when they left - it's simple. The amount of blood found at the Liknes house is NOT necessarily a certain indication one way or another. Someone who lost that amount of blood could in fact have survived for a period...

How is that self-serving? She doesn't know if they were alive when they left the house - but they could've been, or not. I'm not sure what people expect of her. She's making an educated observation. Should she have definitively stated one way or the other, despite the fact she couldn't know for...

Correct. He went there with the intent to unlawfully confine and or kidnap, then murder. NO was killed during the commission of a kidnapping and or unlawful confinement - that's first degree murder.
