If they charge someone for murder in one county and the jurors are convinced the defendant killed the victim but have reasonable doubt that the murder occurred in the charged county, can they still find the the defendant guilty?Either county would have jurisdiction.

Heather Elvis case is a notable similarity. The state did not try to claim she was murdered at her condo, boat landing, or Longbeards, only that she was never seen again after meeting with the Moorers the night she disappeared. My heart aches for baby M and the lifetime of motherly love that was viciously stolen from her.
Good Morning WS'ers. I woke up with a thought in my head this morning I need to share.
Look at the booking photo of MF. She's wearing two hoodies, the darker, zip-style she's wearing closer to her body has the hood drawstring still in it. The red, pullover style hoodie she's wearing has the grommets, but no drawstring.
Wondering if that red drawstring was the murder weapon, i.e. ligature.
Here's the photo:

Since the files are sealed does that mean we will also not know when murder charges are filed?
Yes i’m just confused about wether the public is allowed to know someone is being held for a murder. The files were sealed 12/19 but there was a PC 12/20. So does that mean we can know someone is being held for certain charges and just not who or the details?This article indicates not a peep for 30 days. Hard to know exactly what is sealed though from the varying descriptions.
I think @Lillymac meant Megan F.She is from Lake Charles LA and had lived in Austin the last four years. MOO

In the Patrick Frazee case we were aware of the arrest for murder and solicitation, just not the details of the arrest affidavit which blew our minds when it was released!Yes i’m just confused about wether the public is allowed to know someone is being held for a murder.

Checking addresses on internet people finder type sites, it appears that MF has always lived in the Houston metroplex area. The camp where they met many years ago is halfway between Houston and Austin. I believe it primarily serves a wide range of churches and religious organizations of the Gulf region. JMOWhere did MF come from originally. Was she from Texas or Louisiana?
Won't mention names, but a certain podcaster is doing a live tonight with a "friend" (likely former friend) of MF. Same one that was live when HB was found.
