general response to defense motion asking to release evidence against alex mardaugh, quote, motion is not unfortunately unexpected but complete blatant attempt to create drama where formerly there was none. how do you assess that point, brian? yeah, i think the prosecutors don t have good traction here with these comments, mike. here is why. this case is going to center on forensic testing, right? prosecution has to prove two things, mardaugh was there, you will have gps evidence, his watch, for example, his phone. prosecutors have to turn that over. secondly most importantly the testing done, the blood spatter testing on the clothing of mardaugh and here is another thing, was there testing done for soot and that s black powder from up close shooting, that can prove that mardaugh shot the weapon and close range. how else is the prosecution
going to claim that mardaugh shot the weapon. what if there are no fingerprints of mardaugh on the weapon. we need to see the testing for soot and sticking, that would be on clothes and put him in scene of the crime. mike: what should defense do? this is not an easy case for the prosecution. now the optics when you and i talk about it, oh, there s 30 charges, more than 30, i think there s more than 80, right, a bunch of financial fraud charges probably close to 100 charges so the optics to you and me look like, wow, this is a slam dunk but this is not a slam dunk and the reason why is for what i just said, that they ve got to prove mardaugh time of death, 9:00 o clock, i didn t get there to 9:30, how do you prove he s there, gps or phone and you have to prove he shot both weapons. do you have fingerprint from both and that s challenging.
