“What [the State] is asking you to do, ladies and gentlemen, is convict the one person in the world, who has the same DNA markers, and one–that person knew Charli Scott, and who had the same DNA markers; and he impregnated Charli Scott, and who had the same DNA markers; and he lied about how he found out Charli was pregnant; and that same person with the same DNA markers lied about injuries to his hands on the night Charli is murdered; and that same person with that same DNA markers who by their own phone records uses their phone on Maui 99% of the time in a place other than the Nua’ailua area; and of the 1% of the time that person with the same DNA markers would have used his phone in the Nua’ailua area,” said Rivera.
“Not only that, in the 1% of the time that that person with the same DNA markers used his phone in that 1% of the time in Nua’ailua, it happened to be when Charli is murdered, when her body is covered with her own blanket. And by the way, when Charli was covered, she was wrapped in her own blanket for a short time being, that became her temporary grave. And the person with the same DNA markers that returned the next day, and was there just before the second onset of maggot activity. That’s what the state is asking you to do. And there’s only one person in the world who fits that description,”‘ said Rivera.
Nice job, Rivera. This is what the past 7 months have been leading to.
And mahalo nui once again to Wendy Osher at Maui Now for her dedication and long, informative articles.
Waiting for the guilty verdict to be returned.
