I don't know anything about Higgins except what I've read here, prior DV before a divorce and that he and KR were 'texting'/kissing/flirtations.' I haven't seen a pix of him or his lifestyle. UNFORTUNATELY for me to 'see what that's all about'. Agree though, his phone is destroyed, but hers is not. Who would be telling about all this to the prosecution unless she told someone who's turned on her? It's only an important point if it shows JO was told about this to 'get him going'. where maybe words were said. I don't think killing him was intentional, but if someone from that Alberts circle, beat him outside and left him, they are responsible for not getting him help or checking on him.. OHHH. wonder if that is why HIggins called Albert, if it was his yard, to see if he was still there?
Higgins was there at the same time frame JO was dropped off, I don't know, forget past info. It did all happen very quickly and JO did need a ride home after his visit, but they say, HE DID NOT ENTER THE HOUSE. JM must of assumed after calling him, he was seen/KR suv seen, he just decided to bail along with KR, and they took off.
