I feel very good about the state's case. It has been riveting testimony at times and when all of the circumstantial evidence links are accumulated in their totality it shows an overwhelming amount of solid evidence proving BARD that Zach Adams is indeed guilty of these crimes.
Some seem to think that a case can only be proven if there is a smoking gun or DNA evidence present. That is far from the truth and many jurors all across our nation are more than able to link all of the CE pieces together to come to the conclusion of guilt. In fact CE cases like this one are the ones that are rarely overturned on appeal. There simply are way too many pieces for the appeal to be successful.
The star witness (JA) for the state was just as we thought but what was so interesting to me is all of the other witnesses afterwards lined up with JAs testimony even the testimonies of those who had been in jail with ZA and did not know JA whatsoever.
This case is unique in one way due to the amount of people ZA ran his mouth to over the years but other than that it is rather typical when a co-defendant agrees to testify for the state against one of the other co-defendants. I have seen a trial where two co-defendants testified against another co-defendant and they both, although seedy criminals were believed by the jury. As far as JA he had no way of knowing what was being told to the other jail inmates by the man who is standing trial now yet not once .............not one time did ZA (the motor mouth) ever say JA was involved. So imo, the jury will deem him to be credible although they certainly wouldn't ever want to live next door to him.
It isn't a surprise that most of the witnesses that had important information had criminal histories like the defendant. That is where the state knew they had to go to find out what happened to Holly.............in the seedy criminal dark world where ZAs roamed.
Every witness who takes the stand and testifies is considered evidence even if it is those who have been told things by the defendant or knew information by being there afterwards when the defendant was present. All testimony from the witness stand from everyone who testifies is considered evidence in a court of law.
I think the state has put on a very good case and I feel even more assured that justice will be served for Holly.
OT:aside
As far as Casey Anthony's trial ...........verdicts like hers are extremely rare. I beg to respectfully differ with Hope4 though.
The jurors in that case grossly overburdened the state and expected them to prove things they were not legally required to prove.
I shudder even now thinking about any one of them being put on a missing body case or another case where skeletal remains were found where they cant tell how the victim was murdered. They set an unobtainable burden on the state in CAs case and because of it little Caylee was robbed of justice. They even foolishly said so listing numerous things that were ridiculous and never are burdens any prosecutor ever has to prove in any case. They wouldn't have convicted unless there had been a video from the very beginning to the very end.
Justice for Holly and the Bobo family!
