Key
Points, Continued
- The Clark County Public Defender's Office provided her
with inadequate legal counsel. They missed key deadlines during
the progression of her trial. This office is understaffed and underfunded,
has been recently stated by the Las Vegas Sun.
- The police and the PA twisted her story into what would
fit the murder, not the other way around. Any discrepancies they found
were chalked up to the "drug induced haze" she wasn't actually
in. During their questioning they never once mentioned a date - The only
date reference was "a couple of weeks ago."
- While under oath, the police detective denied ever speaking
with her parents on the telephone, because he would have had to admit
that they told him she was at home when the murder occurred.
- In Kirstin's description of her attacker she said that
he was a large man, over 6 ft tall. She stated he was much taller
than she was (she was wearing high heeled shoes), and that he was a heavy
man, over 200 lbs.
Duran Bailey was 5' 10" tall and weighed 133 lbs.
