See all 18 CommentsThis was a good episode - puzzling, unsolved, cold case. I give it 7 out of 10, 6 points b/c i like the nice earthy architecture of Southwestern homes and 1 more point for shell casing that could have been planted at crime scene.
THE DAUGHTER IS SUSPECT. I THINK SHE IS INVOLVED, MAYBE SHE AND THE GUY PLANNED IT TOGETHER OR SHE GOT SOMEONE ELSE TO DO IT, BUT I THINK THE DAUGHTER IS IN IT UP TO HER SPOILED SELFISH , DIMWITTED HEAD.
I notice some of these people are associated with Countrywide where process became secondary to results achieved, the exact same problem as still exists in Public Education across the nation. Also mysterious and intriguing are the other incidents involving clients of that firm and bearing possible relationship to Mr. Santiago.
However, most of all, I deplore the sloppy and inept, unprofessional police work that shows minds not engaged fully, apparently no one with assigned total focus, ineptness. And, yes, possible evidence tampering. It is stupid to sell a weapon without having full details kept on file about the sale, but the susupect is dumb enough to do that. Amazing how he has found companionship within the legal community....
Were I involved in this as a so-called cold case, I would definitely start from scratch about all the personal relationships of both parents. Someone wanted one of them dead, most likely. Perhaps both.
I have a gut feeling that there is something unrevealed about what was going on with past personal relationships, more so for the mother. But I would investigate both more thoroughly, even going through military records of the father.
One final comment: I am amazed repeatedly on why the D.A. and Police and Courts NEVER bring the dog who was present into the vicinity of each and every suspect while videotaping the natural reactions of the animal. This was not done in the famous O.J. case, and also for others since then. I am both scientific and fair and such evidence would be an important datum. Getting ALL the evidence is quite important.
As for D.A. and police who would plant evidence, their reward is coming soon from the highest sources in the cosmos, likewise for false witnesses, and for those who withhold evidence. Nowadays, a computeer has become central to the lives of many. In my own case, my life is literally wrapped around it -- the biggest single clue, all the data in one place. Overlooking such a source is BEYOND BELIEF and REEKS of incompetence.
When you do not know for sure who the criminal is, it is very important not to go on a witch hunt or to take actions that may well lead to the suffering of the innocent. I must confess that only the span of long experience and the wisdom of age has confirmed me in that precept of justice.
So, I am not pointing any finger. But there is ample opportunity left for further investigation. And the faulty police work (not enough diligent detectives?) needs prompt remedy. The police who appeared seemed like good people, where are things going wrong in their department? Only the investigators there who are honest and competent are likely to know. If that stuff gets too bad, it could make us resemble certain foreign nations I will not mention here, but the ones I am in mind are far, far, far worse.
And we should not forget the good work that the police do. All processes need continual monitoring in order to preserve quality outcomes. A scientific fact everywhere, and let me tell you now, even God does the same.
Without that perfection would not be possible.
