... I am not sure that Mr. Peterson is innocent, but the case against him fails to rise to the level of BARD IMO.
That's my view as well. And I think that's why the prosecution offered him the Alford plea.
Synchronicity. A couple of weeks ago I was at my parents house fixing an old fence. There were a couple of Red-Shouldered Hawks flying around being very protective of their little fledgling. I got my camera out and took a couple of shots of a hawk on a telephone pole. Then I had to do some adjustments in the menu of my camera and when I looked up the Hawk was gone. Then I noticed out of the corner of my eye that the hawk had actually swooped down, when my back was turned, and was now about 20 feet away from me on top of a palm tree. She(or he) let out a few ear piercing shrieks before looking down at me and giving me an icy stare.
It was only later that I realized that, perhaps, the hawk was going to make a run at me when my back was turned. Fortunately for me, I happened to be standing underneath my mom's old clothes line. So I googled hawk attacks and found these:
