Cal Harris 4th Trial: Not Guilty

For those of you who have followed the Cal Harris case out of Tiago County, New York, you’ve likely seen that a judge found Harris not guilty in his forth trial recently. CBS’s 48 Hours aired the story this past weekend.

Harris is a financially well off businessman whose wife went missing in 2001. She has never been found.

In the first two trials, Harris was convicted of murder, but got the cases overthrown. In his third trial, the jury was hung, and in the last trial, by judge only, Harris finally gets his freedom and is found not guilty.

I have written about this case over the years. You can search my blog for more articles.

What do you think about Cal Harris? Do you think he got justice? Or was there a travesty of justice for his wife, Michele?

48 Hours: Cal and Michele Harris

48 Hours Mystery talked about the disappearance of Michele Harris this week, and the multiple trials Cal Harris has faced for Michele’s murder. So far, Cal Harris he been convicted twice of murdering Michele. However, both times, he managed to get the verdicts thrown out. It’s mind-boggling. He is facing his third trial this coming September.

Cal Harris is a wealthy and influential businessman in Owego, New York. No surprise.

Cal came forward on 48 Hours to talk about the case for the first time, yet ironically, he barred 48 Hours from openly asking questions.  That’s interesting, don’t you think?

He limited the questions he would answer by Erin Moriarty and frankly, he didn’t say anything that gave us a reason to believe him.

Furthermore, I found it astounding that Cal doesn’t want answers. At the press conference held this March by Cal, if you notice in the poster that was displayed, “Her kids want answers”.

Isn’t that interesting?

It’s interesting on two fronts:  Not only is Cal speaking and creating this poster on behalf of his children (which shows control by Cal that they aren’t doing this on their own–because Cal create it), it also doesn’t say “WE” want answers– meaning Cal isn’t seeking answers.  He doesn’t seem to have a need to know who did this, does he?  He thinks only his kids should want answers.  Hmmm…. I think it was a pretty big slip, if you ask me.

I also wanted to state that I believe Michele’s boyfriend Brian Earley and the nanny Barbara Thayer.

I do not believe Kevin Tubbs at all.  It took him six years to come up with his story?  Unbelievable. But his words alone give me reason not to buy what he is saying.

Sad story all around. I believe Cal Harris knows exactly where Michele’s body is.
