This is the most important part that some folks aren’t taking into consideration—he wasn’t being grumpy and visibly sleepy and snapping at the officers by any choice of his own. His brain was not functioning logically, it was slowly sustaining more and more damage.
He did not have the capacity to turn this situation to his favor. He very clearly does not understand what’s going on, and if I remember correctly from watching his interrogation, he didn’t even realize his girlfriend was dead most of the time.
Like. This is on those cops, 100%.
