      I know, right? And the way every one kept defending him, saying that if he was found guilty it would only be due to his autism. And then he was found guilty, and they still firmly believed he was innocent. And then he led the authorities to the remains of his ex wife and and the rest is history. It was quite something to behold from some distance.
