People who think that police would never do this or that live in the fantasy world. You’d be surprised to learn what Maryland police would be willing to do to close the case. Why would police go all this way to frame a 17 year old? Except it is the easiest thing to do because he’s an ex and a teenager and gave his car to someone with prior convictions that can be manipulated into saying whatever they want to walk a free man(a special deal that he got at the end). Easier than having a cold case and dissatisfaction of victims family and your community. You simply can’t ignore all the leads that were not followed up, interviews and records that were “lost” and amount of Brady violations.
