Right here shows your bias. it helps the defense because the burden is on the prosecutor to prove beyond a reasonable doubt. What have they proved?
I’m bias because i said the truth? That wasn’t even an opinion. If in your eyes facts are bias then it might be time to look in the mirror
The prosecution isn’t trying to prove Tory’s DNA on the gun beyond a reasonable doubt. It’s just a piece of evidence. The defense will always look to discredit evidence. That’s their job.
The defense is supposed to throw everything out there they can. Being how unreliable touch DNA can be. All the Jurors have to go by is that it’s “inconclusive”
They aren’t there to defend tory so there’s no reason for them to speculate much further than “inconclusive”
If the defend could have proved that he definitely didn’t touch the gun or didn’t have DNA on the gun it would help their case.
They proved that the friend had a different story in Sept. But why would she lie under oath? Why would she state she didn't want to "incriminate" herself?
Jury is gonna have to decide.
My opinion is just listen to what she said. She basically hates meg at this point. She doesn’t want to be there, and she doesn’t want to be involved in helping either one of the two former “friends” who shot each other and let her get blamed for it.
Simple answer always wins imo
She feels she could be in trouble... for what exactly? if she's just a bystander or was actually thrown to the ground by Tory.. what would she be afraid of?
Could be lots of things. She never explained it.
You want to believe they "paid" her.. but the defense attorney actually spent several minutes discussing that.. the defense attorney spent several minutes pointing to her as the shooter..
So u want to believe she accepted money and then allowed them to point to her as the shooter?
This all creates "doubt"...
I didn't say anyone paid her. Her behavior doesn’t really make sense with any logic i can apply to her. The real shooter wouldn’t come to court and discredit her accusations against the accused. So that don’t make sense. All i can come up with is that she’s mad and doesn’t want to help Meg in any way
Y’all too stuck on the word doubt.
A dude can be on camera shooting someone and the defense can say “but did we see that bullet hit the victim” and call an expert to say “yeah i would expect to see the bullet make contact”
Yeah they introduced “doubt” that’s what the defense is supposed to do. The jury would have to decide if that doubt made it to a threshold that would invalidate other evidence.
