Umm that's not how this works.
Innocent until proven guilty
It's up to the prosecution to prove, beyond any reasonable doubt, that he's guilty. If there are ANY questions that can't be answered by the prosecution [like why isn't her DNA anywhere on his property other than that bullet, which came from what should have been an inconclusive test?], then he's not guilty. He may not be innocent, but that doesn't matter. He's not been proven guilty.
You don't put someone in jail for life because you think "yeah he seems like the kind of guy who would do this kind of crime anyway"
