According to MSM or KentLive yesterday, S weighed over 180lbs.. how do we figure that body would've fit in a small nerf gun container? Where did B park when he brought the body out of the house? Was it out front, in front of the front door, or was he still parked in CP#2?? B was 5'6" according to reports.. he is also pictured looking pretty overweight in one of the pics from the time shortly after S's disappearance. According to S's reports to a boyfriend, B did nothing around the house, and he drove a car for a living.. he played nerf guns as a hobby.. how do we figure he became in such condition to be able to lift that kind of weight down a flight of stairs, and out the front door, and into a vehicle, without anyone hearing or seeing him??
It is all circumstantial evidence they have against BL.. although circumstantial evidence is just as important as direct evidence.
We have to admit that initially, there were a few on this thread who thought it possible that NJ was a prime suspect, due to circumstances of their relationship at the time, his seeming controlling nature, etc. I wonder if he had been examined under a microscope as BL had been, what circumstantial evidence would they have found there?
Do they really have enough to put BL away for the rest of his life?
NO DNA evidence was found either in the home or in BL's vehicle.
The shoes went missing, but then they returned. Did the police even take them when they reappeared, and have them forensically examined? Even if they had been cleaned, we know from reading other stories that evidence can still be found between stitches, or between upper and sole, etc.
To me, after hearing all this stuff, it makes me think the cops were seriously lax in investigating this case and taking appropriate actions to catch the perp (ie getting search warrants instead of just asking for phones). Nothing said about taking S's mattress for testing, nothing about taking that duvet, or pillow, or pillowcase(s). No comparison on that vehicle evidence to compare against what a 'red' vehicle would look like, in comparison with other colors, when at night and in B&W.
Everyone hates to have the dating/sexual background of the victim talked about, however, these things come into play when a woman disappears or gets murdered, whether we like it or not. There were at least two men who thought S was seeing them exclusively. There were at least three that we know of, who were actively seeing her just before her disappearance. What if there was another one we don't even know about?
I would just hate to see a relatively young father of 3 jailed for the rest of his life, if he didn't kill her.
We heard so little of all of the actual testimony and closings and judge's instructions. I'm hoping these jurors listened very carefully and will deliberate with open minds, and come to their best conclusions, having been present for the whole thing.
