I’m not arguing with you. I’m just irritated by BK’s ex atty
It’s possible they could have his dna under one or more of the victims fingernails (or somewhere else at the crime scene) but that was just not revealed in the probable cause affidavit because it was not necessary to show ALL they had, right???
They didn’t have to put everything they knew in the PCA? Right? (And of course they may have discovered much more since then.)
I just don’t understand why so many reporters keep saying the defense just has to tear apart the PCA — as if the PCA is the ALL the prosecution has.
A good poker player doesn’t show their hand to the table until they have to. The defense doesn’t have a strategy until they have ALL the evidence/discovery is complete.
That PCA is not ALL the evidence.
Editing to add that i do believe innocent until proven guilty but he looks pretty guilty just based on the PCA and I’m assuming there’s more evidence that they have. So i think it’s silly for attys to dismiss the PCA like it’s nothing. Maybe saying well it LOOKS pretty bad but you know innocent until proven guilty. That would have been more responsible of the ex atty IMO
I know you're right about this -- but this process bothers me. All the games--playing one's cards close to one's chest--not releasing information too early.
To me, and this is purely MOO, the truth is the truth, and there should be no games.
To me, this is a game of "gotcha," and I think that's a sad development in our judicial system.
LE has its games.
The prosecution has its games.
The defense has its games.
And now, even the media has games.
They all talk about their "strategies," but finding justice isn't about strategy--it's about truth, honesty, and the facts.
I understand where LE would not want to release all their information during an investigation so they could reduce copycat crimes or keep from alerting the perp so he ran. But that's not the situation now. Lay your cards on the table and let the truth rule the day.
If Kohberger has a real defense (I doubt he does), he deserves the chance to use it to his fullest. History tells us that many inmates have been unfairly convicted and some even put to death. Yet, we still play games...
