The judge jumped into the questioning and Gracie Bailey Dahms said she remembered it was a white man. But when the judge asked if he was bald or what his hairstyle was she again seemed unsure. Later in the hearing, however, she was asked if she could identify the man she saw that morning in the courtroom today,
she pointed to Jason Young.
When the hearing is over, the judge will have to decide whether Dahms will be allowed to testify in Youngs trial. If he rules she cant, it could be a blow to the states case since Youngs alibi is that he was at the motel in Virginia sleeping during the time of his wifes murder.
Dahm's testimony ended with questioning from the judge in which she said she would have been able to recognize Young in the courtroom just from their 2006 encounter - even if investigators hadn't shown her pictures of him on two different occasions.
Also, she said she had met with investigators and prosecutors recently and they told her "...it's very important - my information."
Judge Stephens ruled Dahms can testify at Young's trial. It's a blow to his alibi that he was at the motel in Virginia sleeping during the time of his wifes murder.
