BBM First I've never said JA "planted" the sex pics, in fact I think she probably did it unknowingly and that's part of trying to figure out whether it was one of her old memory cards that ended up in the washing machine.
Putting an old memory card with pictures already on it into TA's camera would
not change the date/time stamps of those old pictures. Since the date/time
stamps said June 4, 2008, if they were not from that date, someone changed
them deliberately, that's the only way they could have said June 4, 2008
if they weren't actually from then,and that makes no sense to me.
The second part of that is to try and find out if there was another camera involved, or an accomplice(iirc there was something about another person in the car with her on her way home after Utah, let alone the one that was with her when she rented it).
I have never heard there might have been someone in the car with her from Utah.
As far as someone with her to get the rental car, she was 100 miles away from
home and had to drive there. After driving there, and renting the car, she would
have two cars in her possession, so of course she had someone with her. The
rest of her journey, as far as anything I've ever heard, she took alone.
Btw, most of those pics on Flickr look to me like someone had photoshopped TA into them. The only reason I could see for it would be so the person who did it could, in their own head, think they'd helped him achieve a couple more of the destinations from his 1001 Places to visit. That said, I have no idea if TA had ever gone to those places on his own, though I believe the route JA took to Salt Lake after Mesa went right past both(at least Zion looks pretty close, not sure about the other one). I know from viewing her myspace album, I've never heard of her going to some of the places that she has pics of herself in, though perhaps she couldn't fit that into her 18 day testimony....
Don't you mean photoshopped JA? Anyway, this is a completely separate issue than
the one I thought we were discussing.
As for the PT's explanation being enough for you, great, and as far as convicting JA I tend to agree, it's not like she's still denying killing TA or that the rudimentary elements aren't there to have convicted her. However, I think it's incumbent on us all to make sure that we hold our law enforcement agencies to a very high standard when it comes to convicting and sentencing someone to LWOP or the DP. Otherwise you end up with successful appeals and justice does not get served in the end. Part of that high standard imo, especially when millions of public dollars are already being spent, is to show that any loose ends are dead ends and not just left to dangle for an appeals court.
