Murder is a difficult thing to do, and even more so difficult to do well.
If more than one person knows something, it is not a secret. If you think that you have remembered to cover everything, you are only fooling yourself.
The Law eventually comes to reckon with all law breakers; here or hereafter.
I think he means the man is innocent, just like everybody else in jail. I’m sure the police just randomly chose him. LEO had to have some reason to charge him.
Practical,what do you mean??????
This poor boy is being pinned.
