Remind me not to get arrested for murder.
I was wondering what the jurors thought when they found out that Masters had been exonerated by DNA evidence. The Rocky Mountain News talked to one of them. The guy said that he felt the jurors had been manipulated by the prosecutors and hadn't been able to see all the evidence. He also said, "As the deliberations continued, Turner said he was disturbed by the drawings and writings taken from Masters that the prosecutors linked to the crime. A sketch of someone dragging a body, blood dripping from its back. A story about killing redheaded women. He also was bothered that Masters admitted walking up and looking at Hettrick's body on the way to school - he later said he thought it was a mannequin - but didn't report it to anyone."
Masters drew some fucked up pictures and wrote some stories therefore he killed Hettrick. I think the jury and the prosecutors wanted someone to pay for the crime, so they got themselves into a state where they wanted to believe Masters did it and would use any BS reason to convict him. I'm just surprised this was actually allowed as evidence.
