Well that makes a big difference. So now I know that the duct tape was
on the child and not just debris from the woods.
Now the duct tape must be connected to a suspect.
I'm not convinced that duct tape can be "matched" exclusively.
But it would be strong evidence if it can be matched.
But it's strong because it was used in the death, not simply because it came
from the home.
Sorry, but you are having a logic problem on the other evidence that did not cause death.
You keep connecting the other evidence to the house.
That is meaningless because the child is connected to the house already.
This is not Joe Blows house that never knew the kid. If this stuff is connected to
Joe Blows house then he's totally guilty.
You keep proving to me that the girl lived in the house. That is already known.
It's like you are taking a page out of crime solving that works, but not seeing
that it's harder to make it work when the suspect and victim live in the same house.
The duct tape and the garbage bag are important because they were used in the
crime. The other stuff is just stuff that the child could have access to and
played with.
It's hard to not see the mother as guilty, I'm just saying that this evidence is
not absolutely conclusive.
The stuff the mother did while the girl was missing is much more conclusive.
