Fernandez's Prosecutor Finished Closing With One Line
Day 7 ended Mario Fernandez's murder trial with closing arguments from both sides and a prosecution rebuttal. The defense had called just two witnesses — staff from the Discovery School who described Fernandez and Gardner as caring, involved parents — before resting its case.
The prosecution's closing asked the jury to see the totality: the checks, the trust clause, the phone gaps, the January visit to the man who once owned the murder weapon type. Stifler told them Fernandez is the thread connecting every piece of evidence. Dreicer fired back, accusing the prosecution of misstating the financial evidence and presenting two theories about Fernandez that contradict each other. He reminded the jury that Henry Tenon is alive and could have testified but the prosecution chose not to put him on the stand.
Mizrahi closed the day with the prosecution's final words: this defendant is not the unluckiest man alive, he's just guilty. Deliberations begin Wednesday.
