David, who has maintained his innocence, was acquitted at trial earlier this year of the most serious charges — first- and second-degree murder.
David told investigators he didn’t know about Karen’s second phone, but authorities found the device’s number programmed into David’s work phone, the prosecutor said.
At the time of Karen’s death, David had reinjured his knee and was on crutches, Taylor said.
(Goodman accused David of faking the reinjury and said he was seen moving hay bales the day before the killing.)
David is innocent, Ashley said, and she believes her father is being falsely imprisoned while awaiting a new trial.
