If Chesire has no discovery from Nifong, then how does he know so much about this particular fingernail? Well, really these 2 particular fingernails?
Does he have photos of them on the floor or something? Did the defense possibly get into 610 before the police did and get a look at/photos of the trash can?
Did they have time to do that?
He probably knows because Dan Evans told him about the nail. I'm guessing about that, but didn't Dan and his roommates give the nails to the police?
The defense attorneys have had investigators all along, and no doubt they picked up on this info about the fingernail from their 'contacts'.
The boys would have told him, I'm sure.
Assuming he has more evidence yet again.
No clue as to what info he really has....he did say he has not yet received Evans statements made to police and some other things I don't recall.
If the defense got there first, it's because the police didn't do their job. It sounds like the police didn't believe there was a reason to go further until the DA took over.
