24. About his "smart ass" attitude...
I know that can turn off the people watching him, but I also think that sort of self-presentation can be expected from certain types of innocent people. I would guess there'd be a high degree of anger at being hounded -- then convicted -- of such a horrible crime. And if one knows he's innocent, I think that anger and disdain could be the first thing you'd notice about the person. Dealing with the loss ofloved ones, if he's innocent, would have been over long before the interviews -- and then the emotions shift to personal survival and justice. If I were in a position where I was accused or convicted of something I didn't do, I think I'd come across as cold, haughty, and furious. None of that would work in my favor, but I know how out of control I get in the face of injustice. If it were directed toward me, I imagine my response would be off the scale.
