It's the most basic 'you were there, you did it' without any real evidence. Okay, fingerprints on the tap and DNA on the rock.. but both tie in with her checking whether he was dead. No marks indicating a struggle. Presumably no blood on the shovel. So they are saying Elly did it, then actually prove it, otherwise a decent lawyer would get this thrown out with ease, especially with all the witness statements detailing what Finn had done. At the very worst it would be self defence against a murderer with a rap sheet as long as your arm. There is no way she should really take the plea deal.
Oh well, TV gonna TV.
