Good points. I would also love to be a fly on the wall when BM talks to his defense team and see how that goes.

JMO, BM seems to be bent on claiming where the bike was found was the "crime scene". As you said, and I agree, that scene is a red herring and LE seems to have been quick to pick up on that, JMO, and there was nothing there to support BM's claims of the scenarios of what could have happened to Suzanne as that scene, IMO.
It will be very interesting to see what BM's defense team comes up with as a strategy to defend BM. If there is physical evidence that is hard to refute, that will make their strategy even more interesting, IMO. If the evidence is circumstantial, it's still evidence. Circumstantial evidence was enough to convince the jury in the Scott Peterson case that he was guilty and he received the DP. The DP in his case was overturned recently, but his murder conviction still stands. Peterson had a very famous and very expensive defense attorney and IMO, he was unable to launch any semblance of a successful defense because Peterson had dug his own grave so badly and the circumstantial evidence was so compelling. In that case, the circumstantial evidence only pointed to motive but it was enough to convince a jury.
I'm as interested in the circumstantial evidence as I am in any physical evidence against BM. Her siblings and her stepbrother have been very outspoken, IMO. I listened to the recent interview given by Suzanne's sister and I thought she was careful, but she was more forthcoming with some specifics. She said she was surprised when Suzanne called her out of the blue to announce they were moving to Colorado. Suzanne also told her sister about her suspicions of infidelity and her sister cautioned her that if there were problems in Indiana, there would be problems in Colorado. And then there was the $100,000 loan BM managed to get from Suzanne's elderly father for the Colorado house and when his father-in-law called BM to get a promissory note, BM flipped it around to being Suzanne's loan.
This is an incredibly tragic case and it's going to be very interesting as well to see what develops as things move forward.
