Great point - I hope the prosecutors/police have evidence to answer these questions. If they don't I think the establishment of premeditation will be especially important. If they can do that I think the jurors may tolerate some uncertainty as to how, where, and when Laci died.

Thats a tough one-Premeditation without physical connection will never get capital punishment,IMHO. This case will be overturned at least once, I think. LE has messed up in almost every phase of the investigation, From warrants to wire surveillance to venue(if they don't relocate this trial) to jurisdiction if she was killed outside Stanislaus county. Gotta think about all this!....;-0)

Regarding jurisdiction, proper jurisdiction can be:

-the county in which the fatal injury was inflicted, OR

-the county in which the victim died, OR

-the county in which the body was found.
