    Just having someone confess isn’t enough to ~prove~ another’s innocence (yes I know the burden is on the state, but just in general, the one confessing doesn’t mean the other person had zero involvement whatsoever). Sometimes multiple people could be the culprits but one or more of them try to take the brunt of responsibility (they all know that they’re facing life in prison without parole but they can try to spare a friend the same fate) Not saying that’s what happened here, but you watch enough cop shows (“COPS” for instance) and it happens, but usually with drug and/or firearm possession or who stole the car… one ~claims~ that *they* did all the crimes and then picked up others that somehow didn’t think anything odd of the situation, while video shows they all did the crime together… My question is this… What’s the point of going into hiding to avoid death threats, only to then have your *~CURRENT~* appearance and names shown on TV which is then available online for all to see… now everyone knows your name *AND* what you both look like

The killer’s statements to police implicated Baker. It took years for the killer to change his story. But when the killer did change his story Baker’s lawyer took the case to trial & had the killer transported to testify. He traded 8 years for his freedom. It’s not “the system” that ppl are complaining about that did this to Baker. Baker did this to Baker. But now he’s free to live his life so hopefully he makes the most of it.

That doesn't mean "speedy sentencing". And there are rules in place everywhere to ensure that trials are done in a quick manner. A defendant, however, can waive this right which almost certainly this guy did. It is common to delay when concern of a conviction is likely. In this case, however, the guy caught a favorable jury or poor prosecution which lead to this outcome. The defense tactic worked.

    The guy who confessed was not his friend. They knew one another through the shooter's sister. They had only met 2 days prior according to the transcripts and what was later confirmed.

    Delay tactics by the defense. You can't delay a case 8 years without doing that. The media will not discuss the truth in this case as evidenced by them talking only to the mother not the parents of the victims, the prosecution or the police. The reality is, guilty people are often freed. People want to talk about the innocent people convicted more but rest assured the other is more frequent.

Because it’s obvious you believe the small video has contained all the relevant information that you needed. Maybe we should just start doing everything based on two minute videos… well, I guess we’re basically getting there if not already there.

    👨‍⚖️ ~ I don’t know if he’s really innocent, but this is why being released out of jail on bail is important. Of course the same people that are furious at the prosecutors in this case will be the same people who are furious when a judge releases someone accused of a crime on bail. So many people do not understand logic whatsoever. They look at the situation as if their gut feeling is almost always correct and has any value. Plus they look at everything with hindsight. There has to be a system that’s calibrated to work the best it can. But this is why people are often released. Though that said, nobody accused for murder is ever going to be released on bail.
