It's all circumstantial. The Commonwealth's Attorney told the jury: "I
can't play you a video tape of Mr. Bramblett going in and shooting the [Hodges]
in the head."
The Hodges home provided a host of evidence:
- -ballistics; the bullets used to kill three of the victims match the chemical
composition of 22-caliber cartridges found in Bramblett's possession.
- -accelerant used to fuel the fire. Bramblett was found scrubbing a pair of
blue jeans that bore traces of an accelerant - -the same chemical used to start
three separate fires in the Hodges home.
- -photos and tapes. Bramblett recorded telephone conversations with 11-year
old Winter Hodges, one of the victims. He also had a photograph of her in the
bath tub.
Soon after they arrived at the house, police and firemen realized they had a
homicide on their hands.
