I think the best thing that could happen would be for the case to go to trial, after which the jury would deliberate for 15 minutes before returning a “not guilty” verdict.

Unfortunately, living in SC writing the appropriate people in NC government is useless so we’re counting on you NC people.

This case has been so widely discussed, without the rules of evidence being applied and certainly not in a court of law, that none of us really knows the truth. But if the published reports are anywhere close to accurate, this case should have been dismissed many months ago.

The law is clear: if the prosecution really did have DNA evidence which stated that there was no genetic material present from any of the accused or any team member period, and withheld such information from the defense, the prosecution has violated the law.

At least from the published reports, this case reeks of prosecutorial misconduct. Exculpatory evidence was withheld, and the accused were harmed publicly (in their reputations) and financially (in that they have huge attorney fees.)
