Kendrick Johnson (17) Dies after getting trapped in gym mats

No evidence what-so-ever? Federal judges sign search warrants based on probable cause, not on the whim of some truck driver and his wife. But we can agree to disagree on that. Opinions, we all have 'em, right?



No, I don't think that at all, never suggested it. It's not like the only two possibilities are (1) accidental PA; or (2) someone slid his dead body into a rolled, standing gym mat. There are other possible scenarios you know. C'mon, you've been here for a day or two, we've seen bodies hid in all sorts of ways and places on this forum. I'm just amazed that anyone here would find it so hard to believe KJ's body was hidden in a gym mat. Stranger things have happened on these forums, many of them perpetrated by impulsive high school boys with underdeveloped frontal cortexes.

And exactly what did they find with the search warrants? Nothing.

I don't know what they found because the b@$t@rd$ at the FBI wouldn't let me go on this raid, damnit.

They did remove bags of evidence from the house, but apparently the prosecutor didn't think there was enough evidence to convince a jury. We see that a lot in this forum. It should be noted that the warrant was executed two and a half years after Kendrick died, giving the former FBI agent plenty of opportunity to destroy evidence. If he was any good at his job, the evidence would have been gone the next day.

How can a jury (who all watch the same "facts") ever be divided? If facts are facts, and there is no place for interpretation, there should never be a hung jury. Every Prosecutor goes to trial with the "facts" he needs to convict, yet Defendants get acquitted. Some defendants get convicted on "facts," and spend decades in jail before new "facts" reveal he was wrongfully convicted. Doesn't change all those facts that got him convicted though, they're still "facts." People have different "opinions" on the outcome of the OJ trial because they interpreted the "facts" differently.

If facts were the final say, Science would stop at what we know today because, well... Facts. No need to question or look further when we have The Facts.

You made a lot of statements up there that you consider "facts." I'm not going to address them individually because it serves no valid purpose in this conversation, but my interpretation of some of those "facts" is different than yours. The facts are the same, the difference is in our interpretation of them.

It's not a zero-sum game. Me thinking I'm right, doesn't make you wrong and vice versa.

I guess that's why I don't understand the whole "STFU the kid wasn't murdered" mentality about this case. IMO, everybody's input is valuable in a discussion like this one - remember, I thought it was just a tragic PA accident until I did more research and became a "conspiracy theorist." Some of the numpties on this thread may have even helped inform my opinion.

I'm always interested in reading different viewpoints and theories formed from collective experiences and diverse backgrounds of MDSers, that's why I'm here. I post to share my thoughts and experiences and to elicit the same. I don't post to convince anyone that I am right and they are wrong. I'm not the AllKnowieBowie.
