The interview, which was shown to the jury this week, showed Davidson grilling Dennis Oland about his account of events, including times, the routes he took, where he parked his car and any stops he made.
During the interview Davidson asked Oland if he could think of anyone else who would "have an interest" in killing his father. "Who would benefit from that the most?"
"I think he's pissed a lot of people off, but not to that point where someone would, you know, would want to … want to kill somebody," said Oland.
