What Vefy found

The answer first, then the evidence path behind it.

The useful Vefy read is not to restage the whodunit. It is to separate what the conviction record settles from what the public still cannot honestly claim to know. The court file now supports guilt, sentence, and a basic prosecution chronology. It does not support pretending the motive question has been publicly solved.

This is not a theory page. It is a court-record page built to show what the conviction packet actually establishes and where even a high-attention case still has real unanswered questions.
