Actually I think the judge got this right.
The Detective explains that DK was ruled out as the killer, on the basis that he was not in the state.
He states this was verified by team members (personal knowledge)
That really ought to be the end of this wild speculation, but of course the defense is going to continue to gaslight us about it.
Good morning Mrjitty and everyone!
In many murder cases I've followed the defense targets someone else as the killer. So no one should be surprised they have selected DK in this one.
It's the old defense strategy of distraction! ' look over there at the one who isnt on trial and don't look at my client who is on trial!' Lol!
It's a red herring and unfortunately DK is the targeted fish in this one.
When the DT espoused in OS that DKs alibi of being in Hawaii had never been verified I knew that was bunch of bull. And now the truth is coming out. Of course the investigators verified his whereabouts. That's just common 101 investigative procedures in every investigation.
The evidence collected by the investigating team showed them he was in Hawaii during this time. They just didn't take his word for it
Knowing he wasn't involved they wouldn't have any reason to delve into his financial matters.
Although it may be revealed he cooperated and showed them anyway.
This is one reason I like to stay away from all the opinions,rumors, and prior discussions especially before they were even found and before it was declared a homicide case.
That way my own personal biases won't get in the way once the suspect is finally known and will be heading to trial.
It's hard to separate truth from fiction by that time for me anyway. So I try my best to stay away until trial time. That way I go in with fresh eyes wide open.
Since they found no involvement on DKs part he is an innocent individual ...even if he is disliked by some, when it comes to the murders of the McStay family.
They would have to have enough probable cause showing his possible involvement. They had none.
They commonly rule others out until they whittle it down to the one who is actually involved based on all of the evidence.
All of this happened after a very lengthy thorough investigation in this case. This certainly wasn't a rush to judgement case.
Some may not realize after a suspect is arrested the police continue to have an ongoing investigation. It never comes to a halt simply because the suspect has been arrested. So they not only had a lengthy investigation before the arrest, but years afterwards.
I saw a case one time where a judge allowed newly found evidence to come in because the state investigators had just uncovered it right in the middle of the trial.
In the Cesar Lauren murder case the lab results on the crowbar he had used to kill his girlfriend came back in 17 days before trial.
So many cases continue to be very fluid from the start all the way to trial time. So Det. Smith trying the vehicle key at this juncture isn't that uncommon.
