And you know for sure PR didn't uncover her? You were now there, so you cannot know that unless someone witnessed it and swore to what happened.
Far as I know, the police reports did swear to it.
So...it's kind of a moot point.
That's not what I meant. There's absent-minded and then there's willfully ignorant.
So if PR was presumably standing over JB in the basement, why weren't there red fibers from her sweater on JB's body?
Excellent. That was precisely the question I was waiting for you to ask. To put it simply, James, my whole point is that the sweater did not easily shed and thus could only transfer those fibers onto those objects if those objects came into direct contact with it, which should not have been possible I should thank you. I've been trying for a while now to put that into words. You've helped me greatly.
Well books and TV shows tell us that perps leaves clues behind. Hence detective stories. So the more clues the better if they'd been watching TV.
You forget a few things. One, those shows were a bit different than they are today. Two, and more importantly, a devoted viewer would know that. I don't think the Rs were regular viewers of such fare.
Then why did they revise that opinion when John presumably saw later that the perp had wedged a chair against a door leading to the alleged basement exit point, demonstrating that the perp had to have exited that way? Couldn't they have simply maintained the key storyline? There's no reason why the perp couldn't have had a key.
James, don't think that I haven't thought about all these things. I have. And I sincerely doubt that he changed his mind at that point. The "key story" may have seemed like a good one at the time, but it was kind of limited. But the idea of a random intruder who used a less conventional means of entry and exit means that the whole WORLD is suspect! The killer could be anyone anywhere. Plus, LS was selling the window story. Their defense would sound more authoritative coming from him, so go with it. If there's one thing a good business man knows, it's that you don't go against the grain.
