Ok for those that are interested I finally found a live blog from a reporter who is updating continuously.
They have now taken a 50 minute lunch break.
The evidence is horrific that is being entered.
This is the last entry before lunch break.

11 a.m.
Georgia Bureau of Investigation regional medical examiner Edmund Donoghue, who has performed more than 9,000 autopsies, went to New Hope Plantation Mobile Home Park Aug.29, 2009, where seven people had been beaten to death, he testified during Guy Heinze Jr.s death penalty murder trial.
One victim, Michael Toler, 19, died the next day.
Donoghue said he suited up to prevent contamination and looked at seven bodies.
I could tell they all had head injuries he said.
He and his staff performed autopsies on the eight victims the next two days at the GBI crime lab in Savannah, he said.
Donoghue identified photos as Guy Heinze Sr. dressed only in tan shorts before an autopsy was done on his body.
There were 22 evidences of external injuries, he testified of the autopsy, and he precisely identified bruises, lacerations, abrasions and other marks on Heinze Sr.s head, neck, back, arm, shoulder and face.
The elder Heinzes right ear had been torn away completely, he said
All the injuries were on the right side of the body, Donoghue testified.
There were 17 internal injuries, among them a fractured cheek bone, multiple and extensive skull fractures and lacerations to the brain from the pieces of broken bone, he testified.
The jury got a bit of relief when Judge Stephen Scarlett interjected and ordered a recess.
This is probably a good time, he said. Their lunch is here.
