“That said, it does not mean Condit was not complicit in the murder.”
Condit was thoroughly investigated. After some initial reluctance, he fully cooperated with law enforcement. No evidence has ever linked Condit to her disappearance or murder. The mistaken focus on Condit may have contributed to the delay in apprehending the real murderer.
Chandra was a willing partner in the affair. She knew he was married. I believe that she was 24 at the time of the affair so she was not just fresh out of high school. I do not approve of the affair but thousands of Americans have affairs every year. Condit was a serial philander. Chandra was not his only affair during the time.
An affair is not a crime. He did not deserve accusations of murder. He was unlucky in that suspicion would naturally fall on him. Sometimes life is not fair. Affairs can lead to associated fallouts in life.
You’re a so-called professor? Never said he was complicit or that he committed a crime.
Funny, though, if he had not gotten involved with this woman he would never have come under suspicion. Isn’t that so? The fact is, he used his elected position, a position of power, to have irresponsible sex with a young woman he never intended to marry. Corporations and civil service have sanctions for that kind of behavior.
Now you can wriggle and spin until hell freeezes over but it doesn’t change the bottom line: Condit, and people like him, are societal slugs. Oh, and if the shoe fits wear it.
