I shot the prick
Do I think David Bain is guilty? Yes. Do I think that beyond a reasonable doubt? No. So in that respect I think the Jury got it right. The Defense team didn’t prove David innocent but they did produce enough experts to dispute the crown and sow just enough doubt that the jury couldn’t make any other decision.
The 111 tape was interesting…
Firstly the crown tried to portray David as a cold blooded killer who shot his family then spent 15 minutes setting up the scene which included a suicide note and arranging the bodies…If the crown was correct and was that calculated why would he confess to a 111 operator at the first opportunity? This evidance dosen’t fit with thier case.
Second the defence contends that he did not say those words. If they belive he didn’t say anything why go to such lengths to suppress it? Given the reaction to the tape thus far it seems it would have sowen more doubt and helped their case.
One last thing Rosemary McLoed is right we should remember there are still five dead people. Three of them never got to grow up. With all the fist pumping prehaps we have forgotten that.
