I also think that, if these girls were to report that "we saw a creepy guy," he is already laying the groundwork with KA that THE GIRLS are the weird ones, their judgment about him can't be trusted, maybe they are the suspicious ones for all he knows. I'm sure at this point his brain was...
Judge has ruled he is competent to stand trial for murder.
Venue change request denied. Presumptive prejudice has not been shown. Judge said she reviewed media coverage and found it to be factual.
If jury selection goes according to schedule, the rest of the trial will begin December 1st...
It wasn't just that he didn't love her anymore, he was actively abusing her physically and emotionally. He used her for access to her drug prescriptions among other things. Basing my opinion on this on listening to day 4 of testimony, specifically her journal entries and the photos of her past...
You're right -- very difficult to search. In MA I've found it is basically impossible to search district court criminal records by name (housing court and civil cases are a different story). Even if there are active, open criminal cases, searching by full name will not bring them up. You have to...
I have pondered this myself. I think they have a secondary location somewhere away from her body but still inside the park where they may have found drops of blood, bloody handprints, bloody footprints, an attempt to clean up, a place of concealment? Somewhere close enough where the scene of the...
As to the bolded, I don't think so because the judge in this case made a ruling about what media could show. This was from the "Click on Detroit" article posted just above:
According to an order filed on June 9, 2025, by 36th District Court Judge Shawn K. Jacque, we cannot:
Live stream the...
It's definitely out of the norm to be that age and first time offending (as you say, it could be that he did offend and it has not been tied to him/known). However, before arresting Allen, the investigators in the Delphi case looked into two other older men, one aged 55: Sheriff: Delphi murder...
The "story" does include a "she hit me first." But I don't know if it's self defense they are arguing so much as emotional state of mind. I.e. he has been so "mistreated" by the behavior of this person that suddenly and spontaneously snapped. I have not watched all of day 3 testimony yet.
Further info from the link says the piece of the skull that was recovered was "small, discolored and jawless." Hoping that there is enough there to get a DNA profile. The recovery of teeth in the upper or lower jaw would have been an ideal situation.
I believe the defense attorney is trying to get the jury to think the victim was so "bad" that you can't blame someone for flying into a rage and killing her. It is very victim shaming at the heart of it.
I watched the first day of the trial. From opening statements, it appears that Tuerk's defense is that he did kill her, but only because he was in a state of extreme emotion caused by the fact that they were drinking and (according to him) she hit him first. He then went into "fight or flight...
I think every article has been posted and dissected, mainly because the updates have been very few and far between. I'm disappointed that our local news isn't all over this (speaking as someone who lives here).
