Well, police matched bullet casing that was near Tiller's body with casings at Roeder family home

Great work guys. Now we're 100% sure that it was Roeder.

"Nola Foulston told jurors that Roeder had purchased a handgun on May 18 and picked it up a week later, on May 23. Just after the killing, authorities had received a phone call from Roeder's brother David, concerned that his handprints might be on Roeder's gun.

David Roeder said his brother had come to his home near Topeka to practice shooting his new gun the day before Tiller was slain, Foulston said. Law enforcement officers, the district attorney said, combed the property and found a number of casings that were matched to the single casing found next to Tiller's body. The gun has never been found."

The Army of God types are probably worshiping the gun, treating it like their version of the holy grail or something. How fitting, eh?

2. Wait a minute..how can they deny he did it. there was
a witness on the stand, they showed a clip on Rachel, and she saw it. The guy who was talking to Rachel said the defense is going to have a very very tough time.

4. There was no question.
His defense is that he had to kill Tiller to save the babies.
