Im now legal expert but Ive been reading articles each day this week regarding the trial and our little buddy Micah.
It seems to me that for someone that has claimed that he is innocent of this crime there seems to be a lot of time spent on determining how much the rock is worth so that he charges could be lessened instead of proving his innocence. If it were me sitting down and I knew I didnt do it, I wouldnt care how much they valued this rock at.
I think if he would have just admitted fault and given the rock back in the beginning this could have been a lot easier for him and he could be forgiven.
