part that i was thinking of. we didn t have a body. we had no forensic evidence. so to get a conviction, they would need these two sketchy characters who allegedly on orders from henrikson had done some truly awful things. if they didn t tell the story and make the jury believe it, henrikson would get away with murder, but if they did tell it, what sort of credibility with would a person like that have? my concern is our most important witness is going to admit that he killed two people, literally beat k.c. clark s brains out. how do you handle that? you have to embrace it. our number two witness had a tattoo on his back of him urinating on the headstone of the last guy he killed. these are our two star witnesses. still, tim suckow was by far the most important witness. could tell the jury chapter and verse about the many twisted and homicidal plots set in motion by james henrikson. two nights before the trial was to begin, attorneys jones and amed went to see suckow, prepare
