...And I understand that. I don't like it either. But some people are taking a giant leap here. From sick fantasy to premeditated murder without any real evidence. I am sure the police have what they need, but we don't. That's all I am saying. We really don't know anything. Just gossip and rumors from "friends of friends" ect. And I do not think that is helpful whatsoever when seeking the truth.
Well, I agree with what you say about the lack of "real" evidence to date, Frasier, but, I have great confidence in LE.
It's easy to make the leap and assumption because of the nature of their online writing and photos that were readily available to all.
Many, many horrific things came out after the publication ban in Victoria Stafford's case was lifted, regarding Rafferty's and McClintic's perverse online writings, postings, fantasies, videos etc.
Judge Heaney kept most of it squashed due to improper search warrants etc., and the fact that the jury is not allowed to be prejudiced by learning about SOME of their online life. Of course, McClintic's perversions were used in every way possible to paint her as the mastermind and try to help prove Rafferty's innocence.
A direct correlation has not been drawn from MM and TB's online life and the murder of Noelle Paquette. It is going to be a very, very long process for LE, the lawyers and the public will be the last to know, really, as I am sure alot was learned from Victoria's case.
I guess it is a good time to thank all the law enforcement and other agencies who were able to recover Noelle so quickly, return her to her loved ones, and arrest the people accused of her murder. I hope the Crown does the same job with this case, that police warrant procedures were followed to the letter, and justice is swift to the perpetrators of this horrific crime.
