I think we got used to seeing older images of him and Suzanne plus it has been almost 2 years since Suzanne went missing. People change quite abit in their 50s especially if they slow down physical activities or workouts. It looks like he let the hair go gray
How do you draw a conclusion from this? It takes at least two dots to make even a partial connection....Here...there is one...partial DNA on a vehicle. If that person works for the state's forensic division....they have issues.
I think BM was told to wear what he would normally wear on a work day....and maybe also it was suggested to him that he get back to work....and create more $$...since he is going to need it.
ITA Swedeheart, a ploy for the cameras. Plus, it looks like he isn't getting his previously regularly scheduled botox or fillers, although he did run to the hair color isle ASAP.
He's a sad, little excuse of a man and it shows.This motion was never going anywhere. It's just more evidence - as if we need more - that the defense is burning through BM's money with motions he expects to see, as a follower of "true crime" that have no chance.
Defense is asking for dismissal of the case against BM. I have never seen and cannot find a case where this was imposed before trial as a consequence for a Brady violation. Prosecutors can face sanctions and the DA's office can even be disqualified from continuing to represent the state in the case. A conviction can be overturned and the case remanded. But dismissal doesn't make sense if the exculpatory evidence gets disclosed before trial, even if it was deliberately avoided in the AA and the PH testimony.
Agree with everything you said, except for his attire. That’s how the DA was dressed at the PC announcing charges. It only brings attention to him. I don’t think his looks even matter.
Isnt that special.
Too bad the writer doesn't explain the DNA as partial.
Doesn't really matter in my opinion....all that matters is did prosecution hold back info from defense and did they follow through in a generally accepted manner professionally with the information they had. All this chatter about the DNA partial/match/profile is secondary in my opinion and should have shaped how investigators followed through or not followed through which I think would clear up the evidentiary value or lack of value with regard to trial. Media loves that stuff only because it grabs people's attention and adds intrigue.Too bad the writer doesn't explain the DNA as partial.
Not items related to theories or strategies....they call that work product...but all other raw information yes they are required by law to turn it over to defense in a timely manner as they receive it if that occurs after the trial process has begun. And defense has to turn over anything their investigators turn up..but closer to trial. I'm not sure why you feel that is a circus without a pony. There should be no "surprises" to either side at trial.
And it's always a good way to prematurely sway a jury......
It was interesting because it felt off to me also...but all we had were texts from non-legal media people - I wonder if they were off their game because the intent was to have the former prosecutor up front and when the webx had technical issues it threw her off the rhythm of the presentation. But there was a continuation to Dec. 14 so we'll see what happens then. The motions were all tabled from early summer and things have morphed also which made it feel off...the judges response about being "old" motions felt odd since he was the one who tabled them to after the preliminary to begin with. I did not get the impression that they were attempting to "confuse the issue"....the issue was clear - defense feels that prosecution held back information and were less than truthful during the preliminary. I got the impression that they weren't able to present well yesterday for some reason...bad day or JL getting bumped to another day or responses they weren't expecting...we'll probably never know. And maybe they will rewrite the motions as well as add the affidavit to the complaint regarding the gag order prior to the 14th. They seem to have the detail.
