What is missing? IMO, This:
.

... A. Any witnesses' statements that they saw his car parked in the
....... same spot at various times on the night of 12/4;

... B. Any witnesses' statements that they were outside
....... near Jim's apt. and never saw anyone arrive/depart.

... C. Any witnesses' statements that they live/were visiting within
....... earshot of Jim's apt., and never heard anything.


Do people really notice things like this? Sure, someone might have thought twice if Jim's car were parked somewhere where he didn't usually park it. But the neighbors must have been used to seeing it in the street near his apartment, and so would be unlikely to remember whether it was there that particular evening.

If the apartment building is relatively small, it's quite likely that no one saw him arrive home. There are fifteen units in my own building, three or four of which are doctors' offices. I rarely encounter any of my neighbors when I go in and out.

Depending on what the apartment was like, and on where in it the TV was located, others in the building may or may not have been able to hear whether it was on or not. And of course Jim's nearest neighbors may have been out. It was a Friday night, after all.
