First of all, on almost every True Crime thread there’s a snippy “we must wait until the trial” comment.

Bullhocky! WE ARE NOT THE JURY!

We are a bunch of Americans with a free speech right to speculate about a crime of which we are aware as much as we have a right to discuss our gardens. To say we must not expresss opinions on this matter is to effectively squelch our constitutional right of free expression, even if opinions based on rumor and hear-say.

Were we jurors then perhaps we should not discuss. I’m surprised that a Freeper, generally folks well aware of the constitution, would be making such an absurd claim. By your standards, even the newspapers shouldn’t be reported info given to them by various experts and pundits. IE...we all should shut up until this fine, fine man has his day in court. It’s not like anything WE say will decide this man’s guilt or innocense for Lord’s sake.

As for the claim that no DNA evidence has been found, according to the article it states that the “investigators”-whoever they are as it’s not the NY police, have not reported anything back about DNA.

I speculate....which I am lawfully allowed to do per my constitution...that again, there were a lot of people involved with this incident. People tend to talk, especially when they’re being quizzed by newspaper reporters and the like. Again, they have a constitutional Freedom of Speech to tell their story, what they saw, hell they can even lie about it if they want. But I think they told the big media outlets that this woman had a big spot of splooge on her shirt and that’s probably the basis of the report of DNA evidence.

Just because the “investigators” haven’t reported back the results of the DNA test doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Further, the investigators have no requirement to tell the media the results of this test and with all this publicity, they probably won’t.

Don’t go smirking that evidence doesn’t exist....it likely does.

And for sure do NOT, on the FreeRepublic forum of all places, try to take away our freedom of speech with some absurd assertion that we’ve no right to express our opinions on this very public matter....it does not reflect well on a Freeper at all.
