William Brock's attorney said victim, Loletha Hall, was at fault for breaking into Brock's home in the Uber Driver Murder Case.

The sheriff’s office previously said that Hall was unaware of the calls Brock received before she drove to his home. But in the defense team’s request for the court order, Brock’s attorneys implied that they were investigating the possibility of a connection between Hall and the scammers beyond an Uber request.

“The basis for the belief originates from a discrepancy in the facts as known by the defendant and the information provided by Uber,” defense attorney John Paul Rion wrote in his motion. “Mr. Brock was informed of the gender of the person and a description of the vehicle associated with the attempted theft over one hour prior to Uber stating that … the driver and the leader of the theft ring made contact.”

Brock’s lawyers previously received permission to subpoena Uber for all “non-content” records from Hall’s account, as well as her billing transaction history in the six weeks before March 25. Presiding Judge Douglas Rastatter also approved a separate motion from the defense, where they asked for access to Hall’s phone, her phone’s SIM card, and the same dashcam from her car that recorded the armed confrontation. However, he set conditions for them to receive what they asked for, including that they file a document with several details like who would test the devices for the defense, and how.

All that seems like a real long shot but even if it could be shown the driver is somehow knowingly involved in the scam they still
Wouldn’t be a defend to shooting the driver twice as she is already shot and begging for her life.
