You make an excellent point, one that I had not considered. Essentially we,a nd apparently the jury, accepted the testimony regarding the Google Maps search as undisputed fact, but we forget that this guy was working for the prosecution. One only need look at our own NC-SBI to see that there in...

Respectfully...everything you've stated is possible, but what you're really describing is a Hollywood-like characterization of a serial killer, and entirely unproven. Even if it is true, it would have been immediately obvious to BC, as soon as he clicked the search button, that Google Maps was a...

I was referring more to the bloggers who cited the Google Maps thing as what knocked them off of the fence. As I understand it, the new services also reported that the Google Maps search was the most damaging piece of evidence. But to be fair, I'm not sure how they came to this conclusion, since...

The continued references on the news and in this thread to the value of the Google Maps search as damaging evindence is making me a little crazy (or crazier). You guys are probably right that it was damaging to BC. It was troubling and suspicious. But it's true value as evidence has been greatly...

I don't neccessarily find it upsetting, but I competely agree.It became a case of "if not Brad, then who". As I was laying in bed discussing this with my wife last night (& she was begging me to shut the hell up about it so she could go to sleep), I theorized that the verdict could really...

Some strong words here. Let's keep it light,and remember we do this "mostly" for fun. I'm a newbie to WS & I'm now totally addicted. Looks like the Google Maps search weighed pretty heavily on the jury's mind. I thought it was a realtively modest mistake at the time, but it now looks like...

Getting an appeal/retrial is never a slam dunk, especially here in NC. As I understand it the appellate courts are generally hesitant to 2nd guess the unanimous verdict of 12 jurors. The defense either needs to demonstrate some kind of error on the part of the judge, one that likely would have...

Very surprised.

FINALLY, some new information on BC. Unfortunately it's BC, the actor from the Hangover and permanent resident on my wife's "if I weren't married list", not BC the defendent. Seems he's going to play Satan in an upcoming movie. After spending the last few weeks trying to convince the jury that...

You make a good point, but I wonder if there was any communcation via text, communication that got erased when the CPD detective accidentally wiped her cell phone. Either way, it's just a theory, and I think the defense messed up by not giving the jury something else to consider.

Just getting caught up on my latest obsession here, and haven't read all of the latest entries... This statement speaks to a much broader point IMO. Several of you have stated that the fact that Brad told some lies/had some inconsistencies in his depo as proof of guilt, basically the...

Someone plese define MOO, and BDI

No worries. Unfortunately in today's construction market, most of the things that appear on Google Maps as construction sites are in fact still contruction sites.

You misunderstood what I said. I didn't say that a construction site was not a good place to dump a body. What I said was that Google Maps is not suitable for determining a good place to dump a body, for among other reasons, because it is not in real time. What shows up in Google Maps as a...

Don't know much about the depo tapes, other than the the fact that he apparently told some lies. What was in there that was so damaging?
