So let's look at the publically known events:
1) Kim Roberts - Not reliable changed her
story.
2) John Bissey - Said there was an argument about money, time line seemed to be confirmed.
3) ATM photos and recepits. Cellphone records of time and maybe location.
4) 1st DNA test.
5) DPD assessment.
6) Rigged lineup.
Unless the second DNA test comes back positive, or a key witness, as a non-lawyer I don't see a case.
That would be foolish. Once the charges are brought and the alleged victim is willing to go on the stand and testify, go through all the depositions during discovery, it will go to trial -- even if it takes up to two years. In the meantime, the parents and the boys will be in a pressure cooker. They won't be able to continue their schooling, can't even get a job to take up the time. They are, for all intents and purposes, under house arrest. Their friends will drop them, their friends won't even be around any more -- they'll be in school. When they're home this summer, they will stay away because they don't know what to say or do. These young men will either break or become so strong with such great character that nothing else in life will stand in their way. I pray that they all have the strength to achieve the latter.
You should hear some of the horror stories of what kids in our schools are going through now. You would have a hard time to keep from sobbing or throwing up.
Since it was the boys' bathroom how could there possibly not be their DNA on the AV's clothing.
Perdogg,
You make a good point with that list.
That list points right to a policically motivated District Attorney ignoring the facts to use the case to her personal advantage.
