I read a summary from one of the rulings in the last story, which you can find here: http://www.ca10.uscourts.gov/opinions/10/10-6244.pdf http://www.ca10.uscourts.gov/opinions/10/10-6244.pdf I do not think they should go for the death penalty on this case because it's too indirect and because parts of Sneed's story are suspect, not to mention because the death penalty can't be undone if there's a mistake. However, I'm also convinced this guy is actually guilty based on the evidence currently known to me (and I will modify it as more evidence becomes available to me, as any rational person should). Both Glossip and someone sharing the bed with him (the docs aren't clear on there relationship, but I'm going to guess 'girlfriend/wife') lied to investigators to give Glossip an alibi and he appears to have split a large sum of money with the guy who actually held the murder weapon (Sneed). Moreover, the alibi is given as it may be evidence knowing the perpetrator ahead of time. He also told lies to keep people away from the body all day and they only found the body after realizing that he'd been telling lots of lies to people. I would like them to investigate further and gather physical proof--for example, it sounds like there should be hairs/fingerprints at the murder scene if he helped dispose of the body but it's not clear how hard anyone investigated this, because they didn't review the evidence collection practiced. So I can agree with the "we shouldn't execute this guy" part of it, but I am not convinced of his innocence and I'm reminded of the Reiser case where there were a lot of techies who were surprised when his guilt was proven when he led investigators to his wife's body. Back then, almost everyone just ignored the fact that they spent all their time lying to investigators even before they should have known they were suspected. Could learn a thing or two from watching Keyser Soze hustle and learn to spot all the lies that were hiding in plain sight. I mean, I almost never see people reasoning about things like "an innocent person would have no way of knowing that" in particular, how one would know to lie about things before they should have known the hotel manager was dead. We have multiple witnesses saying that Glossip lied about the manager's whereabouts. I don't trust Sneed at all, but Glossip's involvement in the murder seems solid.
