    Doctor Grande one of the things you said several years ago has always stuck with me. "There is a big difference between."actual guilt" (what the defendant really did) and "legal guilt." Which is what can be proven in a court of law. This is most likely why defense attorneys don't ever ask their clients if they are "guilty!"What they ask is "can the prosecutors prove my client is guilty? That's the system and I remember you saying that a long time ago. So true and I've used that many times on the True Crime channels I follow!

      The fact that Dylan said in the first police interview "i barely knew Robert" yes exactly, he out of all of them would have less qualms about killing him, he wasn't a dear friend. Whereas the other two were his friends, but also we're involved with Dylan; leaving them in between a rock and hard place: the perfect reason to obstruct justice. Dylan clearly enjoyed dominating people and inflicting pain on them as well as having the equipment to forcibly ejaculate someone as well as the equipment to inject it into him. What stranger brakes into someones house and forces them to ejaculate and inserts that into them and then leaves quietly? Also if an intruder did break in, he came prepared with the sexual items but didn't bring his own knife? He isn't interested in assaulting anyone else? Dylan had both the equipment that matches what was found to be done to Robert and he was the closest in proximity to the scene. Dylan was down the hall making him the only one that could get into the room Robert was sleeping in without making noise on the stairs. Dylan was also the only one who could not be accounted for because he was in his room (on the same floor as Robert) alone, while the other two were upstairs together. The way NEITHER of the other two would even admit that Dylan did at least have the access is strange. How can you vouch for someone with literally no proof of alibi? How can they say unequivocally Dylan was not in Roberts room when they are also admitting they were not only not with Dylan, but not even on the same floor. Also why was he freshly showered? The fact that the sexual assault was not taken seriously or even introduced into the court case is TRULY heinous.

    My theory is that Joseph, who knew Robert from college had a crush on Robert and lured him into the house to drug and rape him. Robert was given a knockout drug, however due to fear he would overdose didn't give him enough and Robert woke up while Joseph was raping him. A fight broke out, or at the very least he threated to go the police, Joseph panicked and stabbed Robert to death. Victor screamed when he saw what had happened. The rest of their time was used for all three to get their story straight. Normally, the more people involved in a crime increases the chances of someone slipping up and saying the wrong thing. In this case, there was a strength in numbers. Unfortunately for the victim.

Plus with their background in law they probably knew better than to ever open their mouth and talk to the police and lawyered up immediately. It's tough for law enforcement to break someone and have them flip on the others in that situation. Very tragic and no justice whatsoever.

The crying, hysterical guy seems a more normal reaction . Ok hysteria is extreme, but if you've a nervous disposition & never seen a dead body before, I could imagine that being your reaction.

Normally calm, confident people who nothing ruffled, ran like **** for the stairs. I felt numb disbelief & went ultra quiet & went down 16 flights of stairs so fast I got dizzy .

Did they grill the 3 men SEPERATELY and catch the inconsistencies in their three stories? Obviously not! That’s how it’s done.) The three murderers are equally guilty irrespective of who wanted sex with Robert and got angry when Robert did not agree to whatever he had in mind.

    Perhaps one of the most upsetting and disgusting case I've ever seen, disgusting because of how blatantly justice was not served and these three murderers are free. I've seen so many cases where in fact evidence and the truth behind the actual crime was hard to decipher and yet we get good convictions in those cases anyways. This crime was clear as daylight and yet somehow the judge say there was NOT enough evidence to prosecute. I want to know exactly what evidence is missing in her mind. An "intruder" will come into the night exactly the only day Robert visits his "friend" and kills him only after 30 minutes entering the townhouse? In fact, I don't believe Robert even showered or typed those message in his Blackberry. The very minute Robert sent the email to Joseph Price the psychopath, his death warrant was sealed. I believe Joseph had already had some "ideas" of experimenting with Robert in his mind even before his arrival. When Robert got there, he probably gave him some wine or drink spiked with a sedative and when incapacitated, experimented on his "friend" the electro devices. Perhaps murder wasn't on his mind in the beginning but it led to that fearing possibly his lawyer license may be at jeopardy. It's truly sad knowing none of them were convicted when the evidence was beyond overwhelming. This case makes me so sick to my stomach I wished I've never knew about it.

      @@kellyb1420 No need to apologize! Do you want me to elaborate on what I think could've happened? I think I can explain without being too insensitive or graphic. It is so sad. Even if he started as a willing sexual partner, in the end, he was murdered. Someone did it and someone else knows how it happened. It's not fair that they all are living their lives as free men.

      Okay lol 😂 that’s fine. I will try and follow along? Idk 🤷‍♀️ to me it just seems that the Police 👮‍♀️ dropped the ball here? I don’t understand why no other DNA was found?No lie detector tests performed?
      Just something more should of been done? For this poor guy? It’s not fair? No Justice. I have a son and he is in is 20’s and this would kill me as a mother if this where my son Gay or Not. 🥺 Such a horrible murder for this young man, with NO CLOSURE for his family. 😒
