The page is already strong enough to clarify the current case posture for the public. It is not yet strong enough to lock the loudest overlap theory without the state motion, order, or transcript.

The page is already strong enough to clarify the current case posture for the public. It is not yet strong enough to lock the loudest overlap theory without the state motion, order, or transcript.

What Vefy found

The answer first, then the evidence path behind it.

This page becomes useful when it refuses to flatten charge, plea, defense theory, postponement, and final outcome into one blob. The federal plea marker is real. The defense double-jeopardy argument is real. The state-case delay is real. But the strongest current public record still does not let Vefy say the state murder case is already dead.

One hard finding is real here: the federal plea marker. The unresolved question is what it actually changes in the state case now that defense lawyers are arguing New York cannot prosecute him twice while the key state papers are still missing from the public packet.
