Josh believed that piecing together this circumstantial evidence would tell a horrifying but convincing story.

It does, but I will say that here, while it's a circumstantial case and there's various possibilities that what happened, if at that moment you intend to inflict that injury, and again, like, is there any other reasonable explanation? If you strike your fist to someone's face or if you use an object on their head, at that moment, you intend to cause that harm.

Even if you regret it one second later or once you see that you've caused serious injury, like, that still is the same charge. But again, if he is remorseful, that may well factor in appropriately when it comes to sentencing. But again, it's kind of, for me, this too little, too late.

I certainly would always prefer to have a defendant show remorse after what they've done, but it isn't going to change their level of culpability based on the evidence and the facts.

And again, just kind of circling back to that what happened, you know, just to be clear, like it doesn't need to be even a minute, 30 seconds, five seconds before you commit the act. At the moment you are committing the assault or in this case that he was committing the assault, whether he just lost his temper at that moment, that act is intentional and that has to do with his charges.

While a lot wasn't known, Josh has explained like why it wasn't that much to them was clear.

After conceding that the injuries may not be consistent with the fall in the steel bathtub, Palaszczuk's defense team proposed an alternate explanation for the child dying on Palaszczuk's watch, that Logan had somehow sustained his fatal injuries before the baby was in his care.

But the defense continued to sow doubt about whether a possible accident could have caused an injury that had gone undetected until the child was in Palaszczuk's care.

the most common instance of one of these lucid intervals would be when an injured person is in shock and might not have noticed the serious injury until later. But doctors for the prosecution testified that there are few, if any, instances of this occurring with a child Logan's age.

But these so-called theories were mentioned in the defense's opening statement, which meant that they were out there in the jury's mind as a possibility. And sometimes that's all the defense needs to do to inject that fraction of reasonable doubt so that, at least in their minds, may have been addressed.
