Shaggy defense:
It most likely was him. And the prosecution likely has solid evidence
It's just they likely didn't get that evidence thru legal means so it won't be admissible.
Like, at first they said a fast food worker recognized him, then she said she didn't. She said someone walked up to her. Told her it looked like the shooter that has a big reward, and left
That 100% smells like law enforcement needing a legal way to say he was found when they 100% knew it was him and where he was.
So you attack the evidence they can share with a jury. Which isn't great.
You attack all the shitty things the cops did, like tazering him till he pissed his pants and then releasing a cell phone pic to taint the jury pool.
His family is loaded as fuck, they're gonna be able to afford good lawyers, it's very likely he's not found guilty
I would be okay with that. He is entitled to a vigorous defense, and if it goes the way of OJ, so be it.
Not only is his family wealthy, but his defense attorney in NY was a prosecutor for years and knows all their tricks.
