What does that mean? If the prosecution can't win with evidence like that, they shouldn't be presenting cases to juries on behalf of the state.

Unless, of course, there is powerful evidence contradicting it, which there was.

Take the bug evidence. Four -- count 'em -- FOUR experts testified that her body wasn't where it was found until two weeks after Westerfield was under constant surveillance. That's not "reasonable doubt"?

Hi, neighbor!

I haven't been following this case that closely. The only thing I can't figure out is how this case got to trial so quickly.
