I'm not going to get into a big argument about this anymore because it's been gone over a thousand times now, but JM confessed multiple times to police -- not just once. The narrative that Ruff and others put out there about the confessions is disingenuous. He confessed at least 3 separate times and at most six, if you include him confessing to the police officers driving him after he had just been found guilty from the courthouse. In "the bible confession," he gets 95% of it right. People say it was because he memorized everything from his trial, but that logic doesn't fly if you believe he has the mental capacity of a child (which I don't). A child and/or teen with an extremely limited attention span would not be able to memorize all of those details and repeat them verbatim at a later date. He even confessed with his lawyer Stidham present (who was begging him not to), and he explains that he purposefully got certain elements in his initial confession wrong because he wanted to throw off police, as well as limit his own involvement in the crime.
Not only that, but BL all but confirmed JM's involvement to police -- so you would have to think BL was lying too. Of course, you never hear anything about BL from people like Ruff because BL doesn't fit the innocence narrative (quite the contrary). Ruff doesn't look at all the evidence; he only focuses on pieces that will fit his narrative.
For people who are new to the case, 99% of them think they are innocent at first. I know I did, but there's more to the story and it isn't as cut and dry as the docs make it look. I still don't know if all three of them were involved, but if anyone was in my view, it was JM. Research all of the confessions, not just the initial one -- you'll notice that, they only get more and more accurate, with the bible confession being almost entirely accurate. You would think that, if he was making all this up, he would re-flub certain details, but that never happens -- at least to the best of my recollection.
