It turns out Ben Chafin had given investigators five different stories, and he'd been arrested for helping Parker hack into Teresa's computer.
The prosecution gave him immunity in exchange for testifying.
That was my initial reaction when I first started reading his statements.
But when we talked to him, it became very clear to us that he was very, very close to Sam Parker.
The person that he looked at as a father, as a brother, had done something so terrible, he couldn't wrap his mind around it.
Is Ben Chafin a good witness, a believable witness?
Can you give me a sense of what's been going through your head?
Have you been looking at the jury at all, wondering?
I'm going to accept what they say, and that's what I'm going to do.
How many of you thought Ben Chafin was believable?
Not only did they dismiss Chafin's testimony, they had problems with other evidence, too.
To me, the blood was another circumstantial thing.
The jury would have to piece it all together, but it was beginning to look like the prosecution's murder case against Sam Parker wasn't adding up.
