Default more evidence

Here is the forensic evidence (again I welcome you to challenge the validity of each point by providing evidence these points are incorrect):

Walter Rhodes – gunpowder residue found consistent with "having discharged a weapon."

Jesse Tafero – gunpowder residue found consistent with "handling an unclean or recently discharged weapon, or possibly discharging a weapon."

Sonia Jacobs – residue found consistent with "having handled an unclean or recently discharged weapon." Jacobs's 9 year old son had the same result as she.

Other evidence:

In 1977, Rhodes bragged to two inmates that he alone committed the double murder.

A prison guard named Jowers overheard the confession. (oops)

The prosecutor said he relied on a polygraph in giving Rhodes a plea bargain to second-degree murder.

Later, three polygraph experts confirmed that Rhodes did not pass the polygraph and one said it was the most botched test he had ever seen.
