After the fact, the perp said he and the wife were mistaken, and it does not seem that the perp, while on the stand, said that the kid attempted to break into the house.
It’s a bad shoot and the perp was convicted.
I could be a bad shoot as I mentioned in my original post. But the fact remains, if this is the actual video evidence then there is something going on with the most critical piece of evidence. Hard to believe, in fact I find it flat out bizarre no one else in the trial mentioned it.
Maybe the actual video evidence was complete. Who knows.
