Yes, a BIG majority think he's guilt.
As far as I know only some lawyers state that the video is not sufficient.

>2. Of those who believe he is guilty, how many think the video is sufficient to press charges?

>>There's a LOT of debate here, with all kinds of arguments. The thing that currently bothers me most is that a 'confession' alone apparently isn't enough to convict. Additional evidence is required. This is odd, from an ethical point of view. The signal sent out to criminals is:
>>
>>If you kill someone, take care to dispose the body completely, to ensure it is never found back. Even if you go to the police and tell them you are the one who disposed the body, they can only convict you for letting the body disappear and not for having killed the person. Not even if you confess that too.

>>This is a ridiculous consequence of our laws.

>>>I did. It was very interesting. My gut tells me he's guilty, but then there is the chance it was all bravado in front of the guy, even with his statements about how it would be damaging for him if her body were discovered... I suspect he gave her something that caused the seizures and then, who knows? Still, personally, I couldn't convict based on it.

If there’s no willingness to moderate for the sake of good debate, then I have no willingness to debate at all.
