Expert witness's cell tower probe excludes Jay as Hae's killer
Susan Simpson's recent posting is not short of being a revelation.
And not for her own - in parts thoughtful - analysis but for the court established facts contained within.
Specifically, she kindly has provided us with the expert witness's cell tower testing results, that had as yet not been released to the public.
The trial's expert witness Abe Waranowitz of AT&T Wireless was commissioned with gathering data showing to which tower(s) the phone would connect at given locations relevant to the case.
The expert's findings are extremely damning for anyone still thinking that Jay played any part in the actual murder of Hae. They are very strong corroborating evidence for Jay having indeed been at Jen's house at the time of the murder. A fact which he - no less contrary to many his other statements - had consistently maintained from his first interview through up to the trial testimony and which was confirmed by Jen as well.
The Facts
-
Making calls on the phone while at Jen’s House triggers either tower L654A or L651B.
-
Neither Hae's last known location (Woodlawn High) nor the presumed murder site (Best Buy) trigger L651B.
-
Specifically, the Best Buy location triggers L651C and Woodlawn High School triggers L651A.
-
The 14:35 call was received while Adnan's phone (then in Jay's possession) was connected to tower L651B.
-
At 14:35 Hae either had just been killed or at least would already have met her murderer.
Conclusion
- Jay was at or in the vicinity of Jen's house when Hae was murdered.
- Jay was not at the location where and when Hae was last seen alive (Woodlawn High 14.15 to 14.40)
- Jay also was not at the presumed site of the crime (Best Buy) when the murder was perpetrated.
- Neither Woodlawn High nor the Best Buy locations trigger the tower L651B.
Now, if Jay didn't murder Hae, that leaves us with…?
