No idea, but I'm wondering if Duane Reed, the Hearse driver, and Naz himself are all just misdirection in terms of who is actually the murderer. I've been saying since the 3rd episode, my bet is on the lawyer (Turturro). But honestly, I have no idea.
I never thought of that. It may explain why he's doing "detective work" so to speak on other suspects. But, why not let the mountain of evidence pointing at Naz just convict him? Maybe he has a soft spot for Naz and feels guilty. So, he's looking for a way to pin it on somebody. Somehow, if you're right, the cat has something to do with him... maybe it scratched him that night.
I like the theory!
So this past week episode has lead to more clues to the father being the one so I guess that's the easy pick, but here's my theory on Turturro.
What's his motive? Well the show has clearly shown us that no one respects him. When he landed the case (and I'll come back to this) almost everyone he interacts with takes a shot at him (like "oh thats a big one from you?" "Are you sure you can handle this?" "how did you land this?") and also the scene where he talks to the students and just gets pissed on practically. Also what is the point of his feet side story? Maybe his shitty deteriorating feet was a motive for him to either try to end his life or to try to score a big money case. Just a thought, I've been wondering why there is such a strong focus on his feet throughout the entire show.
So how did he get the case? He just happened to be in the right spot at the right time. Suspicious to me.
When he found out Naz's family chose a different lawyer and he was actually officially off the case, that didn't stop him from continuing to investigate. Why is he so invested in this case as a low lever lawyer?
So he also has been shown to not be such a stand up person. We see him buy drugs and go to a prostitute. He also knows a lot of criminals having defending them for so long, he could have connections.
I think that's all I got, but I also just feel the show has shown us quite a few potential killers I'm thinking it can't be the obvious because well that would just be boring.
Also, this weeks episode was awesome. I loved the questioning scenes in court, especially with the detective who we all thought was so thorough and good at his work, but a nice deed he did might have been a big mistake. You could also tell it was on his mind at his surprise party that evening. Also the end of the episode, while there is certainly question as to Naz actually being the killer, he most certainly has become one now.
