You raise an interesting perspective.
I do believe though that there is a plea deal involved here that allowed LE to find Mickey.
If there is indeed a plea deal then there will be no trial as most of us know a trial to be. This is an important distinction as there will not be a jury. There will be some of the lead investigators outlining the evidence but little to no detail. There as well may be some forensic evidence given but once again not any detail.
In a plea deal, specific to this case, the only thing that would happen is that BSL gives the specifics to LE and the DA does not pursue the death penalty.
If this is the case the media attention has no bearing whatsoever on the sentence. That has already been stipulated in the plea deal.
This is very important to remember.
Right, I know there wouldn't be a trial if he accepts (accepted) a plea. I hope that he is accepting a plea that will save taxpayers a ton of money but more importantly, one that spares Mickey and Lisa's families a trial.
As far the witnesses describing a white truck and a partial plate- I don't understand how they remembered a partial plate # yet didn't realize it was a Louisiana plate. That just seems off to me. I hope LE is taking the tips seriously and asking BSL is whereabouts on 4/26/10 but I am not ready to believe he is responsible based on that tip. DWT's are everywhere as we all recently figured out. I think it warrants being checked into but it's not enough to be speculated about in the local media (where the jury will come from if there is a trial for Mickey & Lisa). JMO
