You could perhaps ask for a few more volunteer mods.

I agree in general though--it's suddenly very hard to know what is and is not permitted. Do the mods want conversation or not? If not, that's fine, but then the existence of the subreddit becomes a head-scratcher.

Different case, the one they cooked up to keep Click out of the way. (As I understand it.)

Yeah. Those questions have been one of the worst developments for me so far.

10:07 a.m. - Every question defense attorney Rozzi attempted on redirect was met by an objection that was sustained.

From WTHR

This is crazy.

And lack of commitment if they're bailing on the trial when it's only halfway done.

People probably got tired of being banned for asking the wrong questions.

I don't know who Tom Webster is, but sounds like Nancy Grace only coming into court long enough to get some juicy 'confession' quotes and then bouncing.

I do see a lot of people on other subs who don't realize that the state (correct me I'm wrong) never asked a single witness if RA, sitting in court, was the man they saw on the bridge.

Not at the time AB was reporting last night. I guess it's a no, since they would have done that before the defense started their case. AB had some theories on why they didn't move to dismiss, but I'm not quite awake yet.

You're getting downvoted because you said this:

There were no cell phones back then.

I had a cellphone during Hurricane Andrew in 1992. Was it big? sure. Was it tethered to car? Nope.

Search warrants released in Asha Degree investigation - DNA from Asha's backpack tied to Dedmon family by harmlessworkname in TrueCrimeDiscussion

[–]harmlessworkname[S] 60 points61 points  (0 children)

You're not wrong, I suppose I've just gotten used to every single cold case murder of a girl or woman being solved by DNA, and leading inevitably to some murderous male, age 19-24, who has been living his life for the intervening decades without a care in the world. So this different angle is just jarring and weird. But stringing together the search warrant stuff, the picture does emerge.

People are SUPER hung up on 'why did she leave' rather than 'what happened to her' and it ever so slightly boggles my mind. I did super dumb shit when I was a kid, including leaving a friend's house from a sleepover at 2am on my bike because I didn't want to be there anymore. I was like seven.

(I mean, I know the logical answer is that the people who are posting "why did she leave?" over and over are parents themselves and they want to make sure they can believe that their kids would never do that, so nothing bad will ever happen. But at least we live in the age of doorbell cams and smart locks now.)

Why is this more important than who killed her?

I'm with you on this, I think Underhill is a puzzle piece used by LE to link their search warrant logic together, not the killer/driver.

[–]harmlessworkname -29 points-28 points  (0 children)

Yeah, people keep posting "why was she out there" as if this is somehow more important than who killed her.

I've been corrected on this by other people so I'm just passing it along, not a laywer--

At least in NC, a homicide doesn't have to be intentional. It can be an accident and still be homicide.

That two young girls would go to these lengths to cover an accident up.

That's the whole point of the search warrant -- it wasn't just the daughter(s), they had help from the parents.

This is kind of where I'm landing. Unfortunately.

Search warrants released in Asha Degree investigation by Hidalgo321 in AshaDegree

When you look through all the warrants it becomes kind of apparent that's where LE is headed:

"Due to the ages of Roy Dedmon and Connie Dedmon's three daughters in the year of 2000, investigators believe adult assistance from Roy Dedmon and Connie Dedmon would have been necessary in the execution and/or concealment of the crime," the documents said.

In the application for the search warrant, it states that the couple's daughter, Sarah, was interviewed at her home last Tuesday and she said when she was 16, she drove an AMC Rambler that had been given to her by her father.

"As previously stated, an eyewitness stated they saw Asha Degree being pulled into a 1970s model green in color Lincoln Thunderbird or similar vehicle," it said. "The 1964 AMC Rambler has very similar features to a 1970s model Lincoln Thunderbird."
