This is going to be a hard day of testimony. I started crying when I read that the handprint was a mixture of Kathy and Nathan's blood. I just know she fought so hard to protect her grandson.

Whew! Hard to keep up at times. Sorry, I just didn't have time to post warnings on every post.
I'm trying to reduce duplicate tweets from the many reporters. Also trying to grab the interior pictures for others to use in mapping the house - if someone is still doing that.

Same here, but sadly it looks that they may have been able to walk out ... the worst scenario, I hope I'm wrong ..

What appears to be four finger swipes to on closet door was 8 cm wide, says Arns. #Garland

I know we knew they were all deceased, but today just feels like being hit in the gut. I can't imagine the family and friends pain hearing these details. Why the heck couldn't he have left Nathan alone? Ugh! Such a senseless tragedy!

I just want to say, it's a wonderful community you've got up there. I'm a Chicagoan and if we had half the strength and banding together that you locals have? Well, we wouldn't be known for our daily murders, as we are.

Thanks for all you do, twitter posters and locals who give insight (and converted from meters in a previous thread - it's appreciated)

Another quick reminder that images/detail might be disturbing. Arns is now moving into the second level of the Liknes home. #Garland #yyc

Don't worry! I think that we all know how graphic today's testimony is because it's a blood spatter analysis...you are doing great like usual 😉 the whole entire case is graphic 😢

Below the transfer stain on 2nd floor landing, there were further blood spatter and transfer stains. DNA match for Kathryn. #Garland #yyc
