Brad's had new defense lawyers for the last 9 months. Excuse after excuse is now being floated as to why Brad "has to" take a plea. And that's complete B.S. He, through his attorneys, claim to have proof that he was railroaded, proof that he didn't do that Google search. Now that's it's time for him to put up or shut up and show what he's got to prove those allegations, the about-face has predictably occurred. His last trial, as has been pointed out numerous times on this forum alone, doesn't exist anymore. That's over and gone. The "unfairrrrrr" trial has been overturned. This is a whole new chance, with a guarantee that he would be allowed to present all his digital experts to try to sell that story. But now the claim changes to he can't get a fair trial at all, regardless, and because his acquittal isn't guaranteed then he should not go to trial. What a bunch of absolute hooey.
If Brad pleads guilty to 2nd degree murder, he's telling the world he's a murderer. Plain & simple. It's not a formality, it's a huge confession. It has nothing to do with his children; the night he killed their mother is when he showed exactly what kind of father he really is. The truth is he'll be a convicted murderer the rest of his life, even after he gets out years away. He'll never be an ex-felon. He'll never clear his name, there will be no such thing, and that's a legal fact. No matter what excuses are made for him by others, and there will be plenty, he will have admitted his killed his wife and that is totally his choice.
