From V Wigg story today, more facts in another interview with Newbill

The surveillance video of Arochi and Morris walking into the parking garage together was key, Newbill said.

"The way cameras are situated there, even then, you simply couldn't leave [the garage] without being seen," he said. "The fact that she never came out on any photographic image absolutely convinced us that she left with him in his car," he said.

Newbill thought Arochi had a strong defense team that "hit every note exactly right" in the case. The jury took time to discuss other possible suspects, including Foster, and alternative explanations for the evidence, Newbill said.

But all the evidence led them to Arochi, he said. The experience helped restore Newbill's confidence in the justice system. After jurors reached their verdict, Newbill said the jury foreman again "went over the evidence and how it all fit together, repeating all the ways this puzzle fit together just perfectly...

"Now layer on top of that this campaign of deception from beginning to end that Mr. Arochi played with police that demonstrated a consciousness of guilt and an attempt at every step to throw them off.

"We had absolutely no doubt in that verdict, none at all," Newbill said.
