FLAWED THEORY

Detectives said that David was a "master" in the art of shootfighting, which is a form of martial arts David had just begun training in. They said he "trained" Joseph Wilkes in this form of martial arts, giving them a common "violent" connection. David did not train anyone. Detectives made a big commotion about David owning a "wild animal"; his cougar Harley. The other "wild animals" he would occasionally have in his possession were from the wild animal habitat where he and his friends volunteered their time cleaning cages for the owner. Detectives promoted the idea that David was a coward, saying he hired Joe Wilkes to murder Yvonne Layne. They promoted this theory despite the fact that the only brush with the law that David ever had was when he and Joe and other friends got into a scuffle in a parking lot and Joe broke someone's car window. As soon as police questioned Joe about the window, he blamed David to get himself out of trouble. So, considering the detective's theories, here's (one of a thousand) problem(s) I have with all of this: Why would someone decide to use a knife and leave such an evidence-rich bloody crime scene instead of using their martial arts "master skills" as a weapon? Why would someone use a knife when it have been easy for the victim to have an "accident" with one of the animals? If David had Joe commit a crime for him because he was a coward, why was David in solitary confinement when he and Joe were at the same local jail, "for Joe's protection"? Joe, the guy who previously broke a car window and blamed David for it. THAT'S the guy David would choose to commit a crime for him and keep it quiet. SERIOUSLY??? David is innocent. Joe is innocent. The only people guilty in this scenario are the detectives who "master"-minded this ridiculous theory.
