Question H

[Jonetta]

Connor Collins comes in on his own and confesses to killing his father. Did you believe him at the time? Why or why not?

[Robin]

My first theory was that he killed his father and his mother was taking the blame for it. So, when he confessed, I was waiting to see how the mother reacted. Then I didn't know what to think when we had two confessions.

[Charlene]

I wondered about that, too, Robin. Yet his mother was really a cold fish, and she put me off from the first suspicion.

[Jonetta]

I didn’t believe it for a second. Tracy’s interview with Tim’s brother told me a lot about who he was and his love for his son seemed genuine. Angela on the other hand had a lot less shine. I thought Connor was trying to protect his mother. He didn’t display an attitude about his father that I would have expected to see if he’d killed him.

[Sharon]

I thought the confession was Connor's way of protecting his mother. For a minute, I thought that his grandfather convinced him to lie then I realized a smart lawyer wouldn't do that. I suspected Angela from the start.
