I am going to say this... Devlin is a true blue con artist and a sick bastard. I can only imagine what his defense story will be. I can think of quite a few things that he might pull out of the air. My guess is that this nasty reporter was the one who visited Devlin in prison on Friday and Saturday (as has been reported on STL local news) and the reporter may have got the tip on Shawn's real father from Devlin.
I am not going to post what I think Devlin defense is going to be because I don't want to give his attorneys any ideas. But I bet when it all comes out it will be some story that is way out there with a bunch of BS that will fit in and will be playout to work with some real facts about Devlin's and Shawn's family lives before he snatched Shawn up.
There will be a glaring problem with that type of defense. What's the story going to be in the kidnapping of Ben Ownby??
