Libby had cut knees so there was probably blood in his car. JMO
Interesting that forensics regarding the car wasn't mentioned in Court, unless I missed it.

I respectfully disagree. The lack of internet search which would conveniently prove his guilt just days after the event does not prove he is not guilty. He was so arrogant that he just didn't care imo. 5 days is not a lot of time as well. Especially as he was supposedly back to work the day after
He was wearing trainers.
Yes yes I knowPlease re read my initial post ...ive not said the lack of Internet searches proves he's not guilty ...I said I wish there had been just one more piece of evidence which would have helped seal the deal if it had been presented
As I said, it was presented as evidence because he allegedly cleaned the car within hours of Libby going missing, presumably to erase any traces of her presence.Well it obviously does matter, otherwise it wouldn't have presented as evidence.
There's no need to be dismissive.
But you're not trying those cases.@Newthoughts
Vincent Tabak ..an intelligent man...googled all sorts that helped his conviction
Googling the missing person for info around the missing person and the police work also common
Vincent Tabak's internet use analysed
Graham Coutts ...auto asphyxiationplayed a big part in his conviction
Miss_French respectfully you don't go round committing the sexual crimes PR did and the day after a disoriented vulnerable girl you had in your car and took to a remote location and went missing, you clean your car in -2 for the first time in months. The comment on trainers was because you or another poster suggested they clean their car often in winter because their shoes with sturdy soles collect mud.Same. I wear them for football matches and driving and still have to clean my car regularly.
What does everyone else do whilst the jury deliberates? Do they remain in the courtroom, or wait somewhere else? and does the courtroom have to be left available until the jury have reached their decision, or does it get used for other cases to be heard? does anyone know?
Thanks @Mommysleuth11From my memory the courtroom is cleared when the Jury retire, the courtroom remains empty as the case is live and ongoing (sorry can't think of better term) and the jury may return back in at any time for verdict or questions. I don't believe other cases are listed for that court room whilst the trial is ongoing. Interested parties tend to wait in the communal waiting areas of the court. Then the tannoy calls "all parties in the case of x, to court 1" for example.
This is from memory of Jury service, being an interested party and some (way way back) work experience with the court clerk. So could be slightly inaccurate but the best if my knowledge.

PR had a river nearby? He's lived near it for a few years. Why would he need to google it? Since this case I've thought what would I do if I needed to get rid of evidence. Couple of lockdown walks I've already seen where
Why assume auto asphyxiation was his thing just because asphyxiation was a likely cause. IMO Libby's death was just getting rid of evidence. The end rather than the means. If you believe he went into the park you have to ask why.
If it was a robbery or drug deal rather than a rape would you expect auto asphyxiation? IMO it was just to get rid of evidence
IMO that was why he was confident later on
How did he react previously? Sorry, I might have missed it and really interested to know.
I was thinking exactly this too!
Does anyone know if after the trial the full court transcripts are ever made available to the public?
