Now, I spent many years working for the DoD and unless you have administor rights on a computer, you couldn't load software, updates, delete file histories, nuttin'...
It would seem cisco would have same rules. BC should not have had the credentials to wipe a hard drive.
Possibly so. But again, this is April. I know the separation was happening, but they hadn't started true legal proceedings where he would need to hide snooping or other actions yet. I just fail to see how this request in April is relevant.
I thought he said that also...an old desktop
Why would Brad have to ask this witness then.
I think it all goes to his mindset and control issues..ALL this was post outing of his affair..so yes I do think it is relevant to his behavior prior to her going missing and death...No More no less..and of course doesnt PROVE murder..its just another BUILDING BLOCK of Circumstantial Evidence Picture of what happened and the fact no one else did this..and no one else had such a motive..and guess what?..no one had opportunity..Nothing more and nothing less..I really hate to say this ..There is NO VIDEO of his strangling Nancy..and THERE IS NO Video of Brad dumping Nancy..so guess the pros has to prove there is no other person BUT BRAD who could have done this..
LOL, I don't even know what a MacBook is, so I can't side with you on this one. :truce:
I simply think Brad wanted to get rid of something. something more than selling an old computer. If he just wanted to be rid of it, he could take out the harddrive and physically destroy it. but he didn't want to do that. He wanted to make something disappear in a way no one would be the wiser.
This isn't a building block. It's more nonsense added by the prosecution. Now if they turn around and show that a disc was wiped from July 12th -> July 15th, then it would make sense. That would show when/where he requested software with this capability. But you act like wiping a hard drive is some uncommon event.
Is it possible, that the DA's office, with limited staff and someone said over 18k pages of discovery in this trial, was not fully prepared when the trial started? Remember the poster who said they "picked" certain judges for certain trials, because they had the rotation schedules? Maybe this judge came up, they were almost ready to go, but not quite, but they wanted Gessner for sure. The Cisco witness contacted in February? And this trial started a couple of weeks later? Maybe what he had to offer was not real know/understood when they started, along with several other witnesses who have seemingly been introduced out of order.
My take - opening statement brief, cause the truely didn't know what all they had. Smoking gun? They're still hoping to find one. Neighbors, et al? A stall technique, to give the staff more time to interview, review statements. Blanket subpoenas to CTA.
You really don't like foundational witnesses, do you? :rocker:
So what's the general concensus at this point ... is the case against Brad getting stronger? Are there any pieces of evidence that stand out as fairly clearly establishing Brad's involvement in the murder?
Nope.
Possibly so. But again, this is April. I know the separation was happening, but they hadn't started true legal proceedings where he would need to hide snooping or other actions yet. I just fail to see how this request in April is relevant.
Thanks ... I pretty much missed the last 6 days of testimony and wondered if the case was starting to come together.

I wish I had missed the last 6 days, but I'm gonna miss the next 3, thank God! Productivity in NC has fallen 3.6% over the last month.
