You're entitled to your opinion, of course. I have trouble believing anyone can read the Nov. 6 statement (see otto's link above) and say they would imprison a man for two weeks based on those statements. AK does not claim to have seen PL kill MK. She merely says she has a vague memory of seeing him at the basketball courts and in front of her house the night before. And then she says she's not sure those memories are real.
I'm not excusing AK for bringing up PL's name in the first place. But if you believe testimony from a witness who questions her own recollection and merely places a person in the general vicinity of crime are enough to put a man in jail, then I hope you never have the power to do so.

I don't know how much they had to drink that night and I never claimed to believe AK "blacked out". I was merely reporting that I have had the sort of fleeting image memory she reports after consumption of pot and alcohol. FWIW, I wouldn't have wanted anyone locked up on the basis of such memories.
Uh, geez, :croc:
PL would not be even in the equation if AK hadn't have mentioned him. Here's a quote from said link:
In my mind I saw Patrik in flashes of blurred images. I saw him near the basketball court. I saw him at my front door. I saw myself cowering in the kitchen with my hands over my ears because in my head I could hear Meredith screaming.
Hmm...I saw Patrick coming closer then I cowered in the kitchen while Meredith was screaming.
Sorry, still not convinced there was any LE over-reacting here.
