An examination of the informant's answer in court on the issue of the aforementioned photo reveals that according to his explanation, the interrogator did indeed enter the cell with Muhammad, with an interrogation file in his hand and a prominent picture, and when the interrogator left the room, he himself began "with the questions, what is going on, what is in the picture. .. And that's the trigger for the conversation with him." (p. 289, s. 27 to p. 290, s. 2). According to the informant, he was talking only about a picture he saw in the hands of the interrogator, which served as a trigger for him to start the conversation with Muhammad.
Later, the informant was asked if he had been briefed by the interrogator Saban and replied: "Step on the file itself, I am doubly careful about it, not to accept any details, I am personally careful about it....... You may be aiming for the direction of the exercise...... This story that the policeman came in with the bag is, again, it wasn't planned, again, it wasn't planned in detail. I just told him, listen, I need some kind of trigger to talk to. Something a little bit to get me to talk to." (p. 119, paras. 1-11).
In his remarks, the informant reiterated that his entire interaction with the interrogator revolved around his own request to give him some kind of "trigger" that would allow him to start a conversation with Muhammad about the offense.
Later in their summaries, counsel for defendants 2 and 3 added that the evidence also showed that the informant was exposed to the video of the murder, which was distributed on the Internet, but in his interrogation the informant claimed that he had not seen the video and no real evidence was presented that the other informant had seen the same video, even though he had told Muhammad.
Indeed, as stated, it is possible that the interrogators of the second informant would have done well to refrain from actual contact with the second informant as well, but as described above, no evidence of the informant's briefing was presented by his interrogators.
