Not sure if this is where you're leaning, but wouldn't it be something if Sy and his data points out BK's hidey hole?
I don't think there's any risk. If his phone was off, there's no data to be found in the first place. I think he'll make arguments about where he was when his phone went dark, cell reception in that area, and the same for when it came back online.
Jmo but from my understanding KG and MM weren't found by roommates/ friend/ neighbour. They were discovered in person by attending LE. Just from memory.
IIRC, it was LE that discovered MM and KG. I can only speak for myself, but after seeing what HJ did when he went inside and got to Xana's room, there is no way that I could go up the steps to the bedrooms on the third floor. He had to have feared, after finding Xana and Ethan, that there was just more of the same up there, considering that he had surely been told that neither Kaylee or Maddie had responded to messages either. He knew he was in a house of horrors, and understandably wanted to get DM and BF, and himself, out of there as quickly as possible. He will likely forever be scarred by what he saw that morning. MO
Yes. I have said before because the deteactors just dont have any capacity to imagine what a party house atmosphere is like, and that it was thousands of times more likely to have been a prank or some frat dude being weird than what actually happened.
Yeah, you can hear HJ calling for Xana and Ethan and then there’s roughly 30-40 seconds of muffled sounds as if he’s knocking or trying to get into the room and then right after that comes the frantic “get out get out get out” and from there it’s only about a minute and a half until the police arrive. HJ talks to the dispatcher for just a second after “get out”, she tells him to stop passing the phone around, DM takes the phone back, the dispatcher asks her about the defibrillator and by that point the cops are there. It’s such a short window of time between HJ finding Xana and/or Ethan and the police arriving (and an even shorter window between HJ getting off the phone & police arriving) and there’s nothing to suggest he or anyone else went back inside the house after the “get out”.
So true! Another thing I always think about when it comes to the surviving roommates- and also the “why didn’t any of the victims scream” thing- is that nobody had any idea just how many intruders were actually in the house. BK made some dumb mistakes but was also (tragically) fairly effective in getting in and out of the house quickly and extremely lethally. If I was Xana and had just been stabbed (at least once) before BK came back I would also be terrified of alerting other potential attackers… same for DM. How was she supposed to know whether it was just a single masked man skulking around the house or a whole team of them? I think multiple attackers is an underrated possibility of concern from all the victims’ point of view that, like you said, is difficult to fully grasp coming from all of us who have been poring over every second of that night for two and half years now.

If I were BK, and knew that the best defense that my attorneys could come up with is the suggestion that someone else planted a knife sheath, that matches a knife the state can likely prove that I purchased, and which somehow has my DNA, and only my DNA, on a very key part of the sheath, and it somehow was ;left in a murder victim's bed, in an effort to maybe, frame me or some such crazy notion, and if I knew that the state has other evidence that points to me being in the area of the killings at the time of the killings, well, I would just go ahead and plead guilty, in hopes of saving my life, if not my freedom..."Instead of challenging the conclusion that the DNA on the knife sheath belonged to Defendant, the defense’s expert disclosures reveal that the defense plans to argue the DNA on the knife sheath does not prove Defendant was ever at the crime scene and the knife sheath itself could have been planted by the real perpetrator

No, he won't. He thinks he's too smart for that.

Well, we all know that Santa and the tooth fairy are able to slip into homes under the cover of darkness, and they leave things behind., although they usually leave their own calling card, not someone else's....yeah, I can see how that defense strategy may need some work still... JMO
Kinda like the midget that killed Maggie and Paul .
