Prawat argues that ruling Sweetman out as the shooter does not clear him of involvement.

“No one's proven to me that he wasn't involved. Just because there are two other guys can't mean he's cleared”

Prawat argues that lying about the money in his pocket is itself a reason for suspicion of Sweetman.

“Which, like, makes sense, right? Like, why else would you lie about the money in your pocket? Like, there's just, like, that's weird, right?”

Prawat argued that the family's petition showed how public pressure holds agencies accountable.

Prawat suggests Brittany may have gone to the door alone because strangers are more likely to help a lone woman.

“I'd venture to guess people are more willing to open their door to a young woman in trouble than a woman and a man”

Prawat argued that if the event was complete, it would only be complete after towing, so turning the camera off earlier made no sense.

“Right, because like to me, if you know you're going to tow it, towing it would be like the end of the event then”

Prawat questioned the value of body cameras if deputies can switch them on and off at will.

Prawat argues that the family's multiple trips and conversations about buying the land make a planned murder-suicide even less plausible.

“if all of Dan's statements are true, like, this makes the murder-suicide theory even less plausible”

Prawat argues that the location of the remains rules out murder-suicide and points to foul play.

“And this completely nixes the murder-suicide theory. Like, it has to be foul play”

Prawat suggested the untrusted man Joyce described to a tipster was likely someone like Mike Finch rather than Steve Solley.

“it kind of sounds like she's referring to someone else, like maybe like Mike Finch. It doesn't sound necessarily like she's referencing Steve”

Prawat suggested Mark Wadley may have passed the car question only because police asked about July 23rd rather than the 22nd.

“I feel like he squeaked by there with that were you in her car question because like they asked him about the 23rd, not the 22nd”

Prawat argues that leaving the dog locked in the truck makes no sense in a planned scenario because it condemned the animal to a slow death.

“it doesn't make sense to me, at least, why you'd leave your dog locked in the car. Like, that's a prolonged death sentence for the pup”

Prawat argues investigators should trace the $45,000 withdrawn from the company and the insurance payout, since hitmen are not paid by check.

“where did the $45,000 go that he took out from the company before all this happened? Like, can we trace where that went”
