Thank you for saying this. We have waited a long time for this. The families of these victims have waited a long time as well. This part might be boring, but I do see each day something sticking out. It really is showing how the investigation unfolded. It's showing the steps the investigators took and really painting the picture of how it wasn't simple, there wasn't DNA, there were no fingerprints, the murderers took drastic steps before, during, and after to cover their tracks.
I think what we are seeing the last 4 weeks worth show how much work was done. What road blocks they hit, what things that happened that made them say wait a minute. There are laws to protect people so they couldn't just take phones day 1. They had to ask for voluntary compliance with that.. Jake refused. Phones were changed, evidence destroyed, even attempts to throw them off.
While many just want to hear what they have on George, we can't rush past the groundwork that has been laid. Some of what was presented ruled things out, some rules things in for further investigation. They have to present their case, but also play a defensive game also and present things that the defense will try to distract the jury with.
I think the case for George is more complex because he was least involved, wasn't directly part of the motive, didn't get interviewed early on, didn't give up a phone for the evidence early on, etc. They can just show he was there and part of their lives for that year prior, he was also showing the same behaviors as his family, he purchased some items, was often working with dad and Jake, lived with mom and Jake, was seen running errands together weekly, etc.
If they didn't present all this, then the defense would be, George wasn't part of the family. What evidence do you have to show he was involved with his brother, dad, mom, etc.
They also don't have to show he did much, even just one act that assisted is considered part of the conspiracy. What roles each had do not matter, how much each participant did, doesn't matter, if he went that night or didn't, if he shot anyone or didn't, etc. None of that matters. They need to show he participated in any way, knew about it in any way, etc. We may not see some smoking gun because the fact is if he bought the parts for a silencer and helped buy and modify the truck and then didn't do anything else, he is just as guilty.
I am here for all of it and have zero expectation each day as evidence is presented. I know at the end when it's all presented as a whole, it will make sense.
