So, he listens to shitty music. I dont know why this is being brought up in court. His DNA says it all.

[harleydude-xopu]

I don't see how the lyrics paint any picture of him wanting to go out and do harm to others. Can someone explain to me why they are using this to help prosecute him. His DNA was found, her DNA was found on his disgarded clothes in the trash dumpster. What am I not seeing to make a conviction.

Seriously? None of this is evidentiary. I swear this country's justice system is broke down beyond repair.
