Ah....so he never actually said he killed his wife, or used any colloquial language to indicate he had done so. Never said he whacked her, had her taken care of...nothing of the sort.
So the jury convicted him based on the prosecution's interpretation of those tape recordings, the Jury's interpretation of him sitting straight faced in his chair, a single hair, and the prosecution saying that over 30 character witnesses were all fooled by the evil and manipulative defendant. And the two jurors who said adamantly that the evidence did not point to him being guilty, were removed from the jury. Those are the facts as I know them. -Gel -----Original Message----- From: Dana wow, has anyone read The Stranger? Actually, I think he is guilty and it was the taped conversations with Amber that did it for me. He told her he had "lost" his wife while Laci was still unsuspectingly getting ready for Christmas. All well and good and married men *have* been known to lie to their girlfriends. Except that a few days later, he *does* "lose" Laci. Also, the stuff about not wanting his own children although he was very willing to play and be with Amber's little girl is pretty damning. He was adamant about it on those tapes. I think the difference between Amber's little girl and Laci's little boy was that he would have owed child support for Conor. That's a pretty sleazy motive for murder. However, I find it pretty amazing that the physical evidence amounts to one hair. Either he's a very careful bastard, or they screwed up.
