he originally told police he stole the computer accra roderick -- as collateral so the next day she wouldave reason to get in touch with him so they could talk things out. what is interesting, if he was holding it for collateral, why did he throw it into the dumpster? the jury felt that the best they could do there was a grand larceny charge. they did not feel they have the rory charge, especially considering the value of the computer and the intent of when george huguely went to her apartment. >> one of his former teammates said he thought george huguely lied about where he was on the night of her death. you have to wonder what that played in the jury's mind. why else would he lie about it? >> correct. that was one of his teammates who said he even noticed that george huguely was acting very strange that night. he had a blank stare on his face and asked him. he said george, what is wrong? no answer. he asked him three times. and did not get an answer. also caught him in a lie. one of his teammates was writing a paper below them and this person george huguely, said he wanted -- he went to
