I've no idea where the case is at, but given its all circumstantial its very difficult to see how the defence could mount a successful appeal.

One way would be to name the true culprit and provide evidence that the MO in this and his/her other crimes shows he/she was the murderer of JJ. That is they prove his/her crimes had a signature that can be read across the crimes.

Yes of course.  But there doesn't seem to be anyone in the frame. 

The point I was making in the previous post is that because the case is entirely cirumstantial its very difficult, if not impossible, to undermine any aspect of the case.

I agree. JB has the same problem to a degree. Then who is the individual/suspect who cannot be named for legal reasons and why appoint a new legal team if there is nothing in the pipeline?
