Wish I knew, I'm sure
@Megnut or
@afitzy have some well thought out ideas though.
My first impression was she found it in the mudroom where PG left it and tried to somehow frame him, but being Michi and not that into science and stuff, she did not wear gloves or shave her head. MOO only.
I wish I did have a theory. Or even an explanation. There appears to be something very shady because seriously how does potential evidence wind up in the back pocket of the defense? That's messed up.
If it's PG's long lost and forgotten hoodie and it is what FD wore that day, I am convinced that FD needed a disguise to get from Farmington to Waveny without being identified. He knew about neighborhood cameras. So he leaves 80 MS looking an awful lot like PG to bypass 77 MS. I think he was also wearing MT's clothing and shoes so he could pass as JFd at her garage and driving away from her neighborhood. Hence the ball cap.
I hope there's crystal clear video of MT at Home Depot buying a red cleaning pail. You know, for all those windows she cleaned.
I'd like to present her with a window and have her demonstrate for us her window washing technique. Guessing she's never washed a window in her life.
But that pail IMO came from 80 MS.
The State cannot introduce the pail itself because there's a horrid lapse in chain of custody but they can discuss it in terms of what PG saw and what actions he took.
I wonder what sort of tools were in there. More scissors than hacksaws I suppose but who knows.
FD taped off the driveway, at some point sent MT to be lookout IMO and knew he had hours to work with, with no threat of discovery.
You don't need ponchos for a burial. And certainly not blood covered ones. Whatever he did, it was messy. Messy enough that it may have spoilt MT's appetite for the whole rest of the day.
We still have as much as half the trial ahead of us --
