But, this wasn't a roll out of bed and lace up her shoes situation.
According to Brad's deposition, she had been up for hours caring for a sick child and doing laundry. Do you really think it would be normal to get up early, after a party, and do hours of house work without so much as a cup of coffee?
No, this was a take care of a sick child, try to grab some more sleep, do a few chores then go for a run situation. And yes, with a young child in the house and stuff to do, coffee isn't normally the priority of the day. As stated, she made it a habit of getting her coffee during her run.
Brad was sunk after he did that deposition during the custody hearing. He was stuck to a story line that didn't match the evidence. If he didn't say during the deposition that he never Googled Fielding drive, he could have made up a story about house shopping.
Brad's story did match the evidence, except for the Google search. What it didn't match is the Police narrative. The problem is that the Police narrative doesn't actually match the evidence, which is why they only had the Google search to go on.
Once you assume that Brad is guilty, you will find a way to convince yourself the evidence matches your conclusion, even if it doesn't. That's what her friends did, that's what the police did, and that's what the BDI people here are doing.
Many of us went into the trial not assuming he was guilty, but believing he could be and that the police had evidence to that effect. The day after she was discovered the police made the bold statement that the crime was not random. We thought that since they made such a bold statement so soon into the investigation, that they had clear evidence that she was killed by someone she knew (Brad or otherwise). We discovered during the trial that the police knew no such thing, but rather they ignored the other possibilities in favor of targeting Brad. I thought they had real evidence as to his guilt. As the prosecution presented their case, it became clear that the majority of the physical evidence pointed away from Brad and toward a random killing. The ONLY thing that pointed to Brad was the Google search (the appeals court basically confirmed this), which was supposedly discovered long after the killing. This immediately casts suspicion on the Google search, since now the police have a motive for planting evidence.
