- Hazel Dobkins is a weak-link pick; an online theory that she secretly masterminds the plot is raised as speculation, not established fact.
- Hazel’s short imprisonment after killing her family and Roxy’s similarly brief punishment are questioned; the Hazel mastermind theory receives tentative supporting interpretation.
- Missing forensic evidence is a disputed weak link: DNA, fingerprints and blood should matter, but the counterargument notes Catherine admits sex with the victim and early-1990s public unfamiliarity with DNA.
- Nick remaining free after publicly attacking Nielsen before Nielsen’s murder is another weak link; an Internal Affairs superior pulling a gun during the confrontation is also considered absurd.
