Mavrik Sylvia 502 S. 5th St. Eldridge, IA 52748. May 9, 2024 Scott County Courthouse 400 W. 4th St. Davenport, IA 52801. Dear Jury Members: Mr.Bennett should not be found guilty of the murder of Mr.Adams because there is reasonable doubt. Mr.Bennett didn’t kill Mr.Adams because Mr.Bennett always has gloves on him and if he killed Mr.Adams with Rat Poison why would Mr.Bennett have traces of rat poison on his hands the only reason he had rat poison on his hands because he touched the mug and that had rat poison in it. The strongest piece of evidence that I have is that the police noted that Mr.Adams had bad eyesight and the rat poison looked the same as the sugar, so Mr.Adams could’ve grabbed the rat poison instead of the sugar.

Mr.Bennett is not guilty because Mr.Alfredo is the only one with access to the rat poison. There was also a towel and soap outside, next to a water hose. So someone washed their hands to get rat poison off of their hands, and Mr. Bennett said that he was NOT outside at all. So the person who killed Mr.Adams was Mr.Alfredo. The police noted in the trial that Mr.Bennett was never outside and said that Mr.Adams had bad eyesight. Then again, the only person with rat poison was the exterminator, Mr. Alfredo. I believe he might have left the rat poison next to the sugar so Mr. Adams wouldn’t be able to see the difference and grab the rat poison and drink that instead of sugar. This evidence shows that again
