Defending Jacob 2

I am starting to doubt Jacob's innocence mainly because him and Ben weren't exactly "friends." Derek told Mr. Barber all about school and how Ben was a bully towards Jacob. This gives Jacob a motive and reason to murder Ben. Towards the beginning of the book, I thought Leonard Patz would have been the right person to suspect, but all evidence points to Jacob Barber. There was a fingerprint on the zipper of Ben's sweatshirt, and there is also the "murder gene." I wouldn't be surprised if Jacob was presumed guilty.
