It was yet more digital evidence contradicting his story that he and Milana had parted ways. But that wasn't the only lie Daniel was caught telling. Because later that night, his phone was on the move again.

She also said that hours after she spotted Daniel and Milana together, he had shown up at her apartment unannounced.

At this point, investigators believed that this was the linchpin and they were more confident they had enough circumstantial evidence to charge him with Milana's murder.

A week after the discovery of Milana's body in a Beaverton park, Gore was charged with first degree murder, first degree sexual assault, and other related charges. So honestly, at this moment in the case, investigators have developed a really solid timeline, not only with great digital evidence. Surveillance cameras of their travel throughout the day is a great example of that.

But the fact is, he was cooperating and he was talking. And while his version of events attempted to dispute the video evidence, they really are able to narrow down a lot of that circumstantial evidence, putting him with her that day.

And having him be so open in that conversation, Anastasia, really put him in a corner.

With that hurdle cleared, prosecutors could then focus on the criminal trial itself. Armed with digital records, DNA evidence, and witness testimony to establish Gore's guilt, John was confident, but as always, braced for any surprises from the defense.

You know, this is the point, honestly, again, the case that I think is the moment that the defense attorney is hoping that reasonable doubt just walked into the courtroom and took a seat in the jury box. I mean, in simple terms, proof beyond a reasonable doubt doesn't mean being 100% certain someone is guilty, as you know.

It means that after looking at the evidence carefully, jurors feel comfortable that the person committed the crime. So if there's any real sensible doubt that makes them unsure, they must find the person not guilty. Introducing a potential other suspect is the oldest form of a defense's case. And I think here is where you could probably lay into that, having seen that yourself.
