Let's talk about this idea in general, though, the idea that someone else did these homicides,

or multiple people did these homicides. Maybe not.

Mike, I want to go right to you.

What does Ann Taylor have to present that makes Judge Hippler allow her to do a presentation on June 21st and presenting this alternate perpetrator theory, Mike.

Yeah, Bill, she's got a foundation.

She's got to build.

You can come up with a name.

I could say Bill Cannon was a person who was one of the, you know, a thousand people whose name was given to the police as an alternative suspect.

Okay.

We're not going to allow you to Ann Taylor to just announce that in front of a jury.

You tell us now, and I'm Judge Chippel.

You tell me now, you've got a name, okay?

What evidence do you have that your own investigator and your own

office is turned over to you showing that he was in, you know, Idaho at the time. He was in Moscow,

Idaho. He's got some sort of motive. He's got some sort of weapon, you know, that sort of thing. You

have to have a foundation of evidence that would actually be admissible.

I just can't say Bill Cannon is an alternative suspect and because it's been known in the community that he's got, he had a violent past and he takes drugs.

No, no, no, no.

That's, you know, that's not enough of a solid foundation that you could bring this information in through an investigator and it won't be like triple hearsay, you know, nonsensical stuff,

rumors.

No, if you're going to call, call somebody out and claim that they are a suspect,

you better have evidence to show me that would be admissible in a court of law, not just rumors and smoke and mirrors.
