Powerpoints #8: Forced Entry Via Filomena’s Window Fails The Giggle Test
Posted by Kermit
One of the more bizarre defense dog-and-pony shows of the past few months was a defense attempt to show that a burglar may have entered by the window.
Please click here for the Powerpoint presentation.
Also click on the images below for larger versions. The first is of the window of Filomena’s room. Broken on the night with a huge rock, found lying inside. (The prosecutors think it was all staged from the inside.)
If you ever see that window for yourself, you might find yourself giggling in disbelief. First, even a gymnast from the Cirque du Soleil would find it tough to climb up via the (normally closed) window far below.
And then reach up, open the window through a small opening in the broken glass (without cutting themselves) and so pull themselves up and inside. Leaving zero scuff marks and zero DNA and zero broken glass below.
And second, there is a total of FIVE much easier points from which to break in.
You can see two of them in the second image below: a bathroom window and a bedroom window. Both would have been in the dark. A third - a very dark balcony easy to climb up onto at night - is behind those olive trees to the right.
And there are two more ways in out the front: the front door, and the laundry-room window. A break-in via Filomena’s window is BY FAR the most difficult. Nobody - nobody - has come close to showing how it is done that way.
In this Powerpoint we examine the window from the inside. From that angle this is an especially hard sell. To open it requires a major contortion, made very dangerous by the glass still in the window.
(if you don’t have Powerpoint or the Powerpoint Viewer program loaded, here is the Viewer download.)

Comments
I can’t believe no one has commented on this excellent presentation about the broken window and perching on the windowsill scenario. It makes it so clear that this was impossible for Rudy to do.

Yes. Nobody, let alone Rudy, could have done it.
This has been commented-on elsewhere.
