    He’s an example of the difference in outcomes between a competent attorney focused solely on your own defense and some public defender that didn’t know you’d be their client until five minutes before trial.

    Whether or not he did it, the real outcome of this court case appears to be reaffirming that the NYPD local Pennsylvania PD simply cannot be trusted to do any kind of investigation of a crime or evidence handling even in the most high-profile cases.

      This was a police department in Pennsylvania, days later, hours away from NY

      This police department mainly had information from the media, not from NYPD
