Why wasn't Matt declared "not guilty" after Phoenix proved that every piece of evidence that led to his arrest (the bloody button, the knife, the photo of the Nickel Samurai) had been fabricated by Adrian in an attempt to frame him? It doesn't matter that she wasn't the killer, Matt was arrested based on false evidence and thus that evidence should all be thrown out and the charges against him dropped There shouldn't be a second day of the trial at all because nothing else was established to cast suspicion on Matt that wasn't also stated to be part of Adrian's plot against him And yes I am going into this with the foreknowledge that ...

Is this Mandela effect? That's not what happened
There shouldn't be a second day of the trial at all because nothing else was established to cast suspicion on Matt that wasn't also stated to be part of Adrian's plot against him Second day trial was necessary because the court had Andrews' statement against Matt. Regardless of planted evidence, Phoenix ultimately failed to disprove her statement during 1st day trial. There was no reason to let Matt go. ... Copied to Clipboard!

The problem is, as I said, the ONLY reason they arrested Matt for the murder in the first place is because of the button and knife, both of which were proven to not actually be connected to the murder. They were false evidence and should be completely disregarded. As for Adrian saying "Matt's the real killer, trust me," we should absolutely NOT be taking her at her word at this point, much less keeping Matt in custody over it. Her own testimony established that she was part of a scheme to ruin his career, she fabricated both pieces of evidence that led to his arrest, and clearly has some kind of grudge against him. She didn't even provide a single piece of actual evidence that Matt did it after all the work that went into discrediting everything she says. There is, at this point in the trial, not a single piece of legitimate evidence pointing to Matt. ... Copied to Clipboard!

If you really want to get down to it, Engarde was not eliminated as a suspect even if the initial evidence was planted.
On the other hand, if you want the real answer, the case isn't very well-written and relies on (a lot of) cheap moments to carry it. --- I will rule the world, and find that truly good cup of coffee. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I get your point TC but AA court is different from real life court. Your post describes the concept of burden of proof. However Phoenix has burden of disproof instead. The ingame prosecutor & witness have no such burden. Phoenix's burden of disproof means "Unless Phoenix can prove them wrong, they must be assumed to be correct at all times". This is the logic behind 'contradiction' because when you think about it, contradiction serves not as proof but as disproof. @TMOG posted... They were false evidence and should be completely disregarded. The evidence were thrown out. What kept Matt in detention was Andrews' testimony. TMOG posted...

AA games assume every statement to be correct unless you can disprove it. Andrews' testimony had 2 inseperable parts:

Weird as hell but at least the logic was consistent ... Copied to Clipboard!
