1. It sounds like my cup of tea if you're talking about Midsomer Murders, and not if you're talking about Midsommar. You seem to have presented a bit of a hybrid here in Midsommer. 2. 3. I wonder why Keaten would not have made more hay about this "different position" after the trial, especially during the war years when Lindbergh had fallen so far from grace. Personally, I put little value in these kinds of offhand remarks that totally fly in the face of the experience, deductive abilities and beliefs of dozens of competent investigators who were privy to the same quality of information and clearly never saw this. Knowing more than anyone about the case as you imply Sisk believed of Keaten, doesn't necessarily make Keaten the sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes to the problem solving part of it, does it? And I'd be tempted to leave Walsh out of the drawer entirely. 4. I take it you don't agree with my statement. 1. No. Nothing at all like that. I think one either really liked it or really hated it. Frankly, it wasn't until the end that it all actually snapped into place for me. Anyway, I was just using it as an example and probably should have chosen another way to do it. 2. Some may see the young and others see the old. Some may see both. And of course some may see neither. Like I wrote in my earlier reply on a different thread: All must be considered. 3. Keaten spoke frankly to his peers during the investigation. During the trial all bets were off. But who among them dare to ruin the case and set him free by deviating from the official narrative? I think I've outlined and explained this in my volumes. His position had to be whatever the AG presented at trial. Once the Governor got involved what other choice was there but to be a defensive? After retirement, just like everyone else, he began to express his personal opinion about certain things he would have never done previously. He wasn't alone, and again, its all found within the several hundreds of pages from the books I've written. 4. Just stunned at the potential breakthrough.

What were you talking about originally? Midsomer Murders or Midsommar? 2. And some may only see it only one way. 3. I understand the position Keaten may have arrived at, but don't by necessity agree he was in the best position to make that judgement. 4. You flatter me.

I guess I am to blame for misspelling it, in fact, I shouldn't have brought these movies up in the first place. I just thought most people had seen them and that examples helped to get my point across. Instead it appears that I've opened up a can of worms which is distracting away from it. 2. I think that's among the options I listed... Seeing either the young or old, none, or both. I quite sure you get it. 3. Okay now we're getting somewhere.... Why don't you think the guy who Sisk claimed was the most knowledgeable about the case was not in a position to make that judgement? 4. I liked your answer. We don't always disagree as I'm sure you do realize.
