Refusing to take a lie detector test doesnt prove guilt. I posted an article earlier about a guy from Illinois that was convicted after tracking dogs picked up the scent, but was later exonerated when DNA tests proved him innocent.
When I was 20 I said the same things about me and kids. That was during my wild days ofcourse, now Im 32 and ready for kids.
No, but it sounds really bad, doesn't it.
Just like his mother telling him to "deny, deny, deny" sounds bad.
Or his own mother saying even Scott wasn't stupid enough to dump their bodies in the bay.
Or that he had Viagra in his car when he was arrested.
You keep harping on not convicting somebody on circumstantial evidence; how can you be in college and not know that MOST cases are prosecuted on circumstantial evidence?
YOu act like there's something wrong with circumstantial evidence -- it's like you don't even realize that circumstantial evidence is treated just like direct evidence.
