Heres a compilation of much of AJ testimony from Thursday. I have added a few things that jumped out at me. Can someone tell me if I have overlooked anything or misterpreted something please?
In regard to the Thursday ? pictures taken by AJ . Both doors are open. Front seats
still intact. Rear view mirror still in its proper place. VIN still in place. Not a drop of blood visible not even on the tarpaulin that is spread out under the truck (where theoretically blood might have been dripping.)
(By the way there's also no sign, in the background, of chopped vehicles anywhere, either, which also looks very clean. )
If the truck looked all pristine and squeaky clean like that on the previous day ( according to AJ) and still looked like that on Thursday, then when, where, why and by whom did the truck become stripped and trashed as per the police photos which, one presumes, were taken on Sunday?
Apparently only DM's fingerprints were found on it when police found it, so whoever cleaned it was very careful except they missed wiping DM's fingerprints it would seem.
On the Weds/Thursday where's any indication of huge amounts of blood leaking down through the floor from a person who has been mortally wounded and apparently died there some 30 or so hours earlier. There should be some indications of up to 5 liters or more of blood somewhere if he bled out in the vehicle ( and dripped through the chassis) - not just a tiny dab on the dashboard. In the opening statements the prosecutor said there was "blood all over the interior." If so it was all masterfully tidied up by Wednesday when A.Jennings first noticed it and it remained absolutely pristine by Thursday for the photos.
So presumably we are meant to understand that all this reconstruction and cleanup of the truck took place on Tuesday at the hands of the two accused.
So A.Jennings's testimony indicates that:
Everybody told to stay home from work on Tuesday so he first noticed the Ram truck on Wednesday, May 8 and felt uncomfortable about it because of its resemblance to the missing Bosma truck. Something about the chrome configuration caught his eye. He testified that the truck's
interior was stripped, except for the rear seat, and it sat on a green tarp. No license plates.
By Thursday , May 9th, his continuing discomfort led him to let himself into the hangar early - where he was alone to take pictures (only he and his SIL were at the building that day) and where he surreptitiously took pictures of the truck and its VIN number, then called and reported the truck's VIN number, asking if it was the Bosma vehicle. They called back to say it was. He wouldn't give
them the truck location. It's a bit unclear when he sent them the pictures presented in evidence, but presumably he did that on Thursday, too.
That Thursday night he quarreled with his SIL SS, long time MillardAir employee and SS got angry with him and went home.
All the neighbors but one have said they heard the big trailer backing into the Mom's driveway on Thursday night and that's where it was on Friday morning. This matches Jenning's testimony that on
Friday morning when he gets to work, the truck and the trailer are gone.
Further on Friday A. Jennings testified that he was sent to the hardware store and when he returned an hour later the the police had been and gone. According to Jennings testimony, DM and SS came out onto the floor. His SIL gave him a "funny look" and soon after AJ was fired by DM. Later in the day DM was arrested by the police.
By the time police found the Bosma truck inside the trailer on Sunday, May 12, it had somehow became all trashed and covered with blood and gunshot residue as per the pictures submitted in evidence. When did that happen? DM was in jail so who ripped apart the vehicle? At the very least,
wouldn't one or another of those alert neighbors seen or heard something?
