I have to say I'm intrigued that most of you here are positive BC did this and I have to wonder why some people feel so strongly. I didn't follow this case from the beginning. I really only started looking into it when the trial started so maybe that's the difference. I didn't have 2 years of media influence putting the idea in my head he was guilty.
It seems like those in the "guilty" category are angry about others trying to be objective about the evidence and I wish I could understand that. I have a science background, worked as a chemist for many years and I think it's my instinct to look at everything with an open mind and scrutinize everything as thoroughly as possible.
I've always been against the death penalty because I have always felt that someone could be wrongly convicted and over the years with the ability to test for DNA, many capital cases have been overturned.
I just wish we could discuss the evidence without all of the snide remarks, sideways laughing icons, etc. toward people who are trying to analyze the evidence. Wouldn't it be the most awful thing to convict an innocent man? I don't think anyone here is of the ABB opinion, although we have been accused of it. I have an open mind and if I saw something convincing, it would make this case a lot easier for me. I haven't seen any "evidence" yet that can't easily be explained away. Really, I haven't seen any incriminating evidence at all. Which is why I struggle to understand how so many of you can feel so positive he is guilty.
