He got over it pretty quickly

I remember that after the whole incident, Wagner spent a few days alone at his house, grieving over her death.

Only a few days? No one can get over such a tragedy that fast.

Then he was back to work, as if nothing really happened.

Then he hooked up with Jill St. John pretty quickly.

I have no evidence or proof that he did it, but I'm very suspicious of him getting over it so quickly and conveniently.

Whenever anyone I knew died, it took me quite a long time to get through my grieving.

But Wagner managed to get over her death far too soon.

I might be wrong, but it did prompt me to wonder.

Any further thoughts?

"I have no evidence or proof that he did it, but I'm very suspicious of him getting over it so quickly and conveniently."

And that says it all in a nutshell. Someone fails to meet social (or more pointedly, *your*) standards of 'appropriate length of time in mourning', ergo it's pretty strong evidence of guilt. You can have no accurate idea--nor, to be fair, do I--about the intensity of his grief, nor how 'convenient' it was.

It is absolutely boggling to me the spurious trash the public will put forward as their considered belief of the 'evidence' of an occurrence. You almost have to wonder how a fair jury selection is ever made in any case at all when you realize just how little real thought people will put into a given set of circumstances presented to their consideration before arriving at a simplistic certainty that this must be 'how it happened' because that's just the way it 'feels' to them!
