I mean, at this point, the defense has to use every I would say trick that they can, every bit of law that they can. I mean, look at their client's alibi. It's been nearly two years and what they've come up with after they've been pressed numerous times by the court is that he was out at 4 a.m. looking at the stars in a wilderness park where there are no witnesses.
