re: Why was Bama AD upset at Oats’ “Wong place wrong time” statement?

No one has confirmed whether he read the text prior to delivering the gun. If Miller “plead the 5th” on that question then that can’t be used against him in a criminal proceeding, but Alabama would certainly be within their rights to kick him out. The issue is, Alabama won’t investigate this question and is fine with remaining ignorant, or they have the answer and are choosing to conceal it. Effectively, Alabama is covering up Miller’s true involvement with the murder.

If he didn’t read the text message prior to delivering the gun his attorney almost certainly would have said so.
