You don't want to take the statement of Sue Ann Adams, as quoted, as persuasive? Then why take the statement of D.A. Morgan as quoted?

I, for one, wouldn't trust any statement by him any more than I would a statement by Sue Ann Adams. One thing to consider: the veracity of Sue Ann Adams in an affidavit was considered good enough to launch a burglary felony charge against Richard Ricci. Sounds to me like she isn't some sort of known liar.

Persuasive? No. Not when her statement appears to be in direct conflict with the statements of a district attorney and a number of police officers.
