No. I think she is deceased. But prosecution has a hard hill to climb without being able to prove that she is indeed deceased and that Barry, and Barry alone killed her....I've said that for over 2 years. What happens in the courtroom is more important than what I think...
Why would it go to her sister and not her daughters? I think it was beautiful what they did with it. Someday when they have real homes one or the other can go get it and bring it to their home. Does anyone know if Suzanne's sister asked the daughter if she could have it?
Possibly is false hope, but it can still be held onto for a while.
I believe there is enough evidence to convict him.
My Learned Friend, I pray that you do the prosecution a disservice. Are you suggesting that the prosecution needs to retain the items because it has evidentiary value, but the prosecution does not know what that value is?Uhh...
Doffing a deerstalker, tell me what would there be that's illogical about understanding "dismissed without prejudice" actually meaning "without prejudice", that being to either prosecution or defense? You don't even to argue inference, ding-dong it. It's expressed, unambiguous and in, bless her, The Queen's English..
Suggested DA response:
"No need for delay to research, brief, argue item-by-item or anything else, your Honor! And may it please the court - if not learned defense counsel - we're preparing as is our duty and our right, and we have an unequivocal need for every bit of this due-due defense shopping list.
I think the dismissal of the case plays a role. Yes typically all evidence is retained until the case is closed and the case was closed? Is that too simplistic thinking? I believe they can keep anything that ties to the alleged criminal act that was charged. There are items on that list with no connection to the crime and items whose usefulness has been extrapolated and preserved so the item itself is not essential anymore. Like his truck - he had to ask the court for his truck back and that was released - the useful information had been extracted and the truck analyzed but the truck itself is not necessary to any future case.
“Circumstantial stuff”? Oh, ok.
Heavens
! I've gone thru all my Pedialyte!The statue - height etc, hair color, apparent "nice" coat, accessories, you can't tell frame because of the baggy jeans and the puffy coat, the nose I can see why some people latched onto it.
My post purposely vague as I'm not interested in tracking down interviews. However, "abandoned" is a term easily self-defined versus taking care to keep safe from theft, and/or destruction, eliminating any future use as suggested by OP. JMO
As against notarized true copies of the originals offered into evidence at trial by the P, what evidence would the D have to refute this?
I will wait to see if they can pull it together. I had doubts they could convict starting after the preliminary mostly because I knew the zooming around with a tranq gun wasn’t going to work for them and they were too deep to pivot.
If they wanted it they could get it now and put it in storage if they don’t have room for it at their current ‘real’ home.
I don’t disagree I have been hoping no one has disturbed or defaced the statue but it is the daughters decision. I am hopeful as they go older they find more emotional value. But I do believe the decision was there’s and that some residual anger played a part. :-(
But only if it is allowed into trial by the judge. I suspect if a new charges are filed, there will be many motions filed in repect to the value of 'circumstantial' evidence submitted by the prosecution.
IMO, that ship sailed within 48 hours. And I'm done with this subject.
Never!
