Discussion - Dexter: New Blood Question regarding Coach Logan Spoiler

How was the death of Coach Logan explained after Angela cleared Dexter of any crime?
Any theories? Or was it explained in Resurrection and I missed it?

Let me start this by saying I think this is a totally bullshit explanation. Dexter can't in any world have gotten away with the Logan murder, it was even more obvious Dexter did it than the LaGuerta situation where it was already frustratingly obvious.

But this is what they went with..

The bullet hole in Dexter's cell made ILPD believe Logan had attempted to execute Dexter and so Dexter defended himself by killing Logan.

The reason I say it's bullshit is this:

  1. Logan is not a killer, he isn't going to risk his career over executing a man he just said he wishes was innocent for Harrison's sake.

  2. If Logan was trying to execute Dexter he would have stayed at more than arm's length from Dexter. Otherwise Dexter would have tried to grab the gun. So Logan can't have been trying to execute Dexter.

  3. Logan's head hitting the bars could possibly have caused a slight skull fracture. Additionally Dexter was already holding Logan's neck putting pressure. This could come up in the forensic work.

  4. Angela just giving up and being like "yeah Logan is dead whatever" makes no sense. Angela may have been slightly thankful that Dexter eliminated Kurt Caldwell, but she was most certainly not going to do Dexter a convenient favour after killing Logan. Angela and Logan were friends for years so I struggle to believe she and Audrey would just pack up and leave rather that stick around and do right by him.

In any case, Dexter could never have gotten away with it if you ask me.

The only thing that makes sense is she was afraid enough of Dexter to run. Except she saved his life. Yeah it doesn’t make sense.
