[@nancyfahey7518]

The first thing I mention is the dog is gentle. She just sounds vicious.

[@italiarosa4666]

Except the victims blood is in his truck, and the knife was found at his home. That’s more than circumstantial!

[@candydusek2354]

I see nothing at all odd about him being concerned about his dog. I do find it odd that he didn't seem to be concerned about why he was being arrested. On a side note, as a previous juror, all this questioning about which specific route the deputy drove in on would have me nodding.

[@honeybunch5765]

I know this is totally unrelated and random but where do Americans keep their dogs without fenced in yards? I don't know if it is the British culture that has been left over in my country but we have fenced in yards, if not all around at least the backyards, just to keep children and animals save from running into the road or even worse, disappearing. Not judging just curious.😊

[@F_Tim1961]

@@honeybunch5765 This is a trailer park arrangement he is living in. He has a long transportable house (no wheels ). Other houses may in fact be big caravans. So basically nobody owns the land where they are sitting and therefore the can't put up any fences. It's a crappy way to live but many Americans have no choice.

[@brenda9228]

@@honeybunch5765 Most homeowners backyards have fenced-in, electronic fence, or post with long lead attached. The defendant lives in a trailer park/mobile home park. He pays RJR Property Management a monthly rate to keep his trailer on a rented lot. Every Management Company has different rules but most don’t allow renters to build on rented land.

Exactly! If I was being arrested or detained Id want my animal to be looked after. What are they gonna do tow the vehicle and let the dog wander the streets?

how TF he "jumped the gun"? It's not up to him, he doesn't issue the warrant, he just has to arrest the suspect. He's a McClean country sheriff, this is a Morton county crime, warrant was issued and crime is investigated primarily by Mandan PD and BCI

[@jackieellabella3699]

I see a lot of comments here that he’s not guilty or no evidence or no motive…well motive is not an element of proving the crime, we can’t be in the mind or heart of a murderer, yes it’s good to have it because it ties to the why but not an element to prove guilt, we haven’t seen all the evidence yet but so far it’s a puzzle, maybe not one piece itself proves guilt but all the pieces together will paint the full picture, wait until ALL evidence is presented on both sides before you decide. Once you start connecting all the dots and all the circumstantial evidence builds to too many coincidences, iit will therefore show that this defendant is the person that committed the crime. This defendant did have connections to these victims and they do have so far evidence that is starting to point to him. I think he was after one of these victims and the others were collateral damage. It clearly was somebody that knew them and was getting familiar with their schedule because the same truck showed up a week before at the same time as a week later of the murders, staking out the place, in a truck very similar to the defendants.

[@jennyd9144]

It’s not an element, but without motive there is a LOT of room for reasonable doubt. The defence only needs to prove criminal doubt. Prosecution needs to prove he did it BEYOND a reasonable doubt. I think he’ll walk

[@nadagabri5783]

Wait until all evidence is presented. You - he’s GUILTY 🤡

[@jackieellabella3699]

@@jennyd9144 I don’t agree at all that he will walk, yet. I’ve been a jury foreman and I agree that motive clearly helps but if there is mounting evidence that he did it then the jury will not just ignore that just because there isn’t a provider motive. And just because there isn’t a provided motive doesn’t mean there wasn’t one. Now if all the other evidence doesn’t prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he did it then yes most likely he will walk, so far the chips are stacking up against him.

[@freedomrings5270]

Too many holes in this testimony... In North Dakota, considering the inclement weather such as the snow and salt used to clean the roads I would want to see other white truck comparisons for rust spots. How many tenants other than Issak owned this same vehicle and how many of the evicted had the same vehicle. Also, what about the victim's girlfriend's ex husband ...what did he drive??? Most dog owners would be concerned about what happens with their pets...why is this so important? I thought it would be a "conflict of interest" being he was a client of Issak. ???

[@pamelamorris3148]

They put this innocent man in prison I believe because they needed to close this case. There's absolutely no evidence, including the actual CCTV footage of the company showing 2 people, completely different body size of Isaac's body frame, and still wanted to lock him up and charge him because he was at McDonald's. Taking a trifling McDonald's worker's statement to prosecute only is going to cost the State lots of money for a false imprisonment. There was absolutely no evidence watching this entire trial linking this man to the murders, including absolutely no blood or DNA. This was an inside job and either a cop or family of a cop who wanted his buddy to be off the hook so they blamed the awkward chiropractor.
