There is zero chance any judge going to exclude the conviction starter package the "police found on him"
You don't go through all of that parallel construction to have it gutted like that.
Trust me bro a guy who shot the parasite CEO decided to carry all of the evidence needed for conviction on him for 5 days ๐คก
Did he, though?
The longer the case goes on the less convinced I am that he was actually the killer. It feels like there's a new "weird" thing about the case every week.
This situation is not in the slightest weird and your only example of normal is tv
nothing that has happened in the case has been weird to you? Not even the parading him around like he is a super villain? Not that they found him with literally every possible piece of evidence they could need to have a slam dunk case.
I have followed a couple of the cases and usually they play out a lot less like TV than this one has so far.
Hard to say tbh, we are going to be getting biased information from either side. How much is really true?
It's not entirely out of the question, but it does require considerable evidence. It's possible that he carried it so that it wouldn't be left somewhere as evidence, until he could get somewhere that he could safely destroy it.
That said, there are some pretty gaping holes with that explanation that would need to be filled first.
I am pretty sure I could dispose of a gun in less than 5 days.
Just gotta throw it in a random residential garbage can on garbage pick up day and walk off without anyone suspicious seeing.
There's a lot of ring cameras out there and there was a manhunt going on. You gotta remember that this dude needed to not be seen. By cameras or otherwise.
I would say he should have broken the evidence apart into smaller pieces. If the gun was 3D printed, I'm assuming he knows how to disassemble it. Dispose of each peice in a different public garbage can. Once again though, this involves going out in public a lot of times during a man hunt.
Or put it all in that one backpack, find a place where you can make a burn barrel, and set it all of fire.
Or fill the bag with some cement and throw it into a body of water.
People have been disposing of evidence for years. Keeping it all on you for 5 days, having a "manifesto" that admits guilt, and then pleading Not Guilty is suspect as fuck.
Go hiking, bury parts in remote locations away from the path.
Any number of thousands of dumpsters between NY and PA would have worked fine.
It's entirely possible he's that stupid.
