  There was already a ton of criticism of her in the other post we had on here today. My guess is that she was drunk or otherwise impaired and wasn't totally thinking clearly.
context: While innocent until proven and all that, this is a damning collection of evidence. Plus this dexter of criminology made an enormous number of ‘rookie’ mistakes that anyone who has ever watched a crime show would know better than to make:
  Surveilling the residence multiple times prior using his white Elantra and with his cell phone active. Driving his Elantra to and from the residence on the morning of the murder. Turning off his cell phone specifically around the time of the murders but otherwise leaving it on, even while driving home that morning. Leaving a witness at the crime scene to identify his build and bushy eyebrows. Leaving his knife sheath at the crime scene, with chunks of his own DNA stuck to it. Returning to the scene of the murders later that morning. Soliciting Redditors to describe their emotional euphorias while committing crimes.
  This affidavit really is a fine piece of writing on a criminal investigation connecting all the dots (literally). The attorney can claim all he wants that his client will be fully exonerated, in the performative style of a trump lawyer. But this guy is toast. >
  
  Sorry, did you say he returned to the scene that morning? What the actual fuck? >
  
  Yep. He drove home immediately after the murders but then couldn’t help himself, had to go back:
  “Specifically, the 8458 Phone utilized cellular resources that would provide coverage to the King Road Residence between 9.12am and 9.21am”
  Then drove back home again:  
  “The 8458 Phone next utilized cellular resources that are consistent with the 8458 Phone traveling back to the area of the Kohberger Residence and arriving to the area at approximately 9.32am.” >
  
  Good lord. What an absolute moron. >
  
  Lmao, leaves cellphone on him while he stalks the house before the crime.
  A criminal mastermind! >
  
  The idiot was smart enough to take a roundabout way home but dumb enough to turn on his phone on halfway home. That’s how they can confirm the Elantra in the surveillance videos the night of the murder is his. Once he turned on his phone the tracking data of the phone pings match the final movements of the car that night. 
  Oh and he left the knife sheath behind with his dna on it. >
  
  Why even bring the phone? Having your phone shut off coincidentally at the same time as the murders and for long enough to commit them and get home is going to look really bad for him. Meanwhile, leaving the phone at home would be able to be used as evidence in his defense. Thank God he's an idiot. >
  
  He also returned to the scene of the murder.
  These are all mistakes “amateurs” make of course. But what’s shocking is he’s got a masters in criminology and he most likely planned this for some time. So even with all the planning and the knowledge of how crimes are solved, he made extremely dumb mistakes.
  It’s dumb enough to leave your knife sheath behind, but what I find even dumber is he brought a “dirty” weapon with his DNA on it to a crime he planned in advance. He didn’t even think to clean it before committing the crime just in case he dropped it or lost it in a struggle and had to flee.
  Even though his training was only in theory, I would’ve expected something more like the scene where Mark Wahlberg kills Matt Damon in the end of the Departed. A guy in basically a bunny suit covering his footprints (he didn’t do that either), with a weapon wiped of prints and dna. Not a guy bringing a weapon with his dna all over it to a murder and leaving footprints behind.
  Add on to that bringing his phone and not knowing that these businesses and streets had cameras everywhere to track him and I’m impressed by how much of an idiot he was. 
  I’m glad he’s a fucking dumbass. >
  
  Yeah it’s pretty simply at the end of the day. Regardless of the guys education, he just so happens to be profoundly dumb.
  Proof that you can memorize shit from a book to score well in a class, but maybe can’t take that knowledge and apply it in the real world. >
  
  Turning it off during the crime is a huge mistake. He has his phone on all the time, except when this crime was committed.?  Well…,that isn’t suspicious! He should have left the phone on and at home! >

  Hey,  even Amanda Knox and her boyfriend Sollecito were able to eventually get off after having the done the same thing (turned cell phone off during time of crime). >
  
  The poor girl is gonna get a lot of shit about her not calling the cops until hours later.
