    "Beyond a reasonable doubt" is not really the standard in my state, but that is a different issue for a different day as to the differences. Here is the thing for me: If you say wasn't me, and here are the holes that prove it. Fine. I'm right there with ya. When you say it wasn't me, here are the holes, and then try to explain the holes as a police frame up, then you come across to me like you are inventing a story to cover your guilt and that itself becomes part of the evidence I would consider too. You would have to nail that proof against the police or I wouldn't believe you and then I wouldn't believe anything else you said or your lawyer said when you do not. That may not be part of the abstract standard for judging guilt, but it is how I would see it.

    Except that the police had already framed him in the past causing him to go to prison for 18 years.

    His DNA was found on the keys and the hoodlatch.

    Yes, by cops who forgot to change their gloves while handling different pieces of evidence.

    The irony here is that he apparently wanted to blame brothers, not the police, at his trial for framing him but the court wouldn't let him.

    I understand some people have concluded a serial killer framed him as well.

    See what you want to see.

    So the officer who has admitted to forgetting to change gloves is lying?

    You would be shocked. Age plays no role.....

    You could be walking down the street one day and a guy that happens to resemble you could commit a crime and they pick you up........

    And my DNA is all over my buddies car, if someone kills him tomorrow does that mean I killed him? hell my DNA is all over the local gas stations counter, does that mean I robbed it if it gets robbed tomorrow?

    Just because my DNA is somewhere doesn't mean I had anything to do with a crime.....

    Yes, DNA that the cops had a sample of in this particular case. Normally I'd agree and ask how it got there in terms of something as personal as keys he should never have possessed. But unusually, the cops had the means to plant that kind of evidence.
