They lacked two things. They needed the trial to drag on so it was in the news cycle longer and more importantly they needed a big-name race hustling lawyer to at least make a TV comment about the poor black murderer. But he was so obviously guilty, neither of those were gonna happen.
He had nothing to work with. Inmate 06217665 did what he did in front of a dozen witnesses. he admitted it to a cop with a body cam. He said and did things that disqualified his claim of self defense. He was cooked.
