I think it’s a very strong case in terms of him doing it. I think it’s going to be hard for them to argue that it wasn’t him or that it was unintentional,” Rahmani said. But, in the public perception, “he is a very sympathetic accused murderer”.
They don’t have to prove he didn’t do it…
The government has to prove he did. And they have to provide evidence and disclose how they got that evidence.
With the pressure on finding someone, it’s likely they didn’t obtain all the evidence legally. If they used illegal means to find him, Im pretty sure that taints any evidence found on him.
The article makes it sound like jury nullification is his only shot, but there’s a very good chance the prosecution can’t use a lot of their evidence unless they make up a very good story about how they might have legally got it.
I wonder what sort of illegal methods of search they could be concealing? A system capable of finding someone under those circumstances would need to have vast resources available to it and we would likely be aware of its existence through whistleblower revelations if not directly. However, since we don’t know of anything like that I find this theory to be (N)ot (S)pecifically (A)chievable.

Yep.
Good thing the same standard doesn’t apply to you.
