JMO...I don't think we will see any trials for the remaining three...they are now having to rethink their defense tactic...JW saw his family crumbling sitting in jail, by filing weird motions and his brother's attorneys trying to throw him under the bus. His mother may be sick who knows. They do know that the State has so much evidence now that they better take what is on the table. I truly believed it would be George striking the deal first, so who knows how far they will go.
Good points thanks.
I think it's possible that George's attorney's trial strategy backfired.
I think he held the Bond Hearing not because he thought George would get out, but because as he himself said:
"I wanted to see what this is all about"
So he concluded it was all about Angela and Jake and this was the "writing
on the wall" for Jake and his attorneys. They knew Jake was going to be the family "scape goat."
Just some things that stand out to me:
1.) Weird Motions being filed by Billy not once but twice.
2.) Billy trying to "bully" his attorneys to the point his attorney said something in court about it. He probably pushed his attorneys to submit his Bond Motion.
(I'm using the word bully not his attorneys)
3.) Billy constantly complaining about the courtroom, not seeing his attorneys, it's taking too long, why does Jake get his trial first etc....
4.) Billy being called "mastermind" by his attorney but now the attorney says he is very sharp and let's them know when he doesn't agree with their trial strategy.
5.) George trying to get a Bond not once but twice.
6.) George's attorney strangely asking the court to put him in solitary so he can do the things he likes to do and read his Bible. This is up to the jail, he would know this. He wanted the public to hear this for some reason.
7.) George's attorney made it crystal clear that he sees this as a case about Angela and Jake not George.
8.) Angela could be sick or planning to plea because it's been far too long - going on a year - since she was seen in court.
9.) Angela weirdly refusing to wear her regular clothes.
10.) FW going to court for the guys but not once did I see her for Angela.
