Re: Sean Taylor Shot at Home
I saw this on PFT and found it interesting:
TAYLOR CASE MAKES NO SENSE TO US
We continue to ponder the comments of Miami-Dade Police Director Robert Parker regarding the murder of Sean Taylor. And we're more and more troubled by them.
"They were certainly not looking to go there and kill anyone," Parker said of the suspects. "They were expecting a residence that was not occupied. So murder or shooting someone was not their initial motive."
How do we know this? Are the police in Miami suddenly in the business of taking criminal defendants at their word? If that's the case, why no free every inmate in every jail in every state?
After all, they're all innocent. Just ask them.
In this case, what about the evidence that the phone lines were cut before the suspects entered? Some might think that the goal here was to disable any alarm system, but most alarm systems automatically are triggered if/when the phone lines are cut.
Parker, as several readers have observed, sounds more like a defense lawyer than a police officer. Why is Parker presuming that it was merely a robbery gone very bad?
We'll continue to monitor this one. For now, however, there's something about this one that smells bad to us.
