Nevermind the fact that virtually every study ever done on the reliability of evidence indicates that circumstantial cases are every bit as strong as cases based on direct evidence, juries still won't convict on them.
The cleaning company, busted phone and busted surveillance are all going to be flat out ignored by the jury 99 times out of 100.
Juries are just extremely stupid when they are asked to determine what amounts to 'reasonable' doubt. It's like every last one of them becomes the guy in the Chappelle skit.

Unless they find blood or his boys flip on him, I'd put the odds on him actually beating the rap.
