You can see one of these photos for yourself by going to themeateater.com/bloodtrails or by watching the video version of this podcast on YouTubeThe jury saw this photo and many similar images, and it's safe to say the prosecution brought them back up every chance they got.

If someone were truly in a situation where they had to defend themselves, they're not going to celebrate with the person's items immediately after that event.

That contention was backed up by a man who'd been in jail with Darren and claimed to know what really happened that night on the mountain.

The witness came forward to law enforcement after Darren was in the detention center.

Basically, what he said was that Darren didn't know Dustin.

He was up there looking for a place to stay.
