“This case is about a guilty man who knew exactly what he did in evading detection for horrendous crimes 25-plus years ago,” Deputy District Attorney Juliet Oliver said during her closing arguments on Wednesday in a Santa Ana courtroom. “He knew exactly what he was guilty of, and he knew exactly why he was being arrested.”

The defense attorney raised the possibility that Konther during the recorded conversation could have been repeating details of the sexual assaults he had already heard from police investigators and may have known he was being recorded.Neither Kevin Konther nor his brother testified during the trial.
