Sgt. Westin continues his testimony on the stand as the #Saretzky trial returns from a break.

Photos of tire impressions found on rural property being shown. #Saretzky

Westin says they used a chemical to identify blood on site. Blood was found on a yellow toy and the ground near fire pit. #Saretzky

Westin says they took the photos at night so the chemical could be seen. Bluestar reacts to blood by lighting up the area blue. #Saretzky

Westin says you can still get DNA after you use Bluestar but you have to limit how much you use. #Saretzky

Photograph of a piece of a latex glove found on site now being shown. #Saretzky

The fire pit was 21 inches deep. Westin says there was 5 to 6 inches of debris they took out of it. #Saretzky

Another photograph shows a fork that was recovered from the fire pit. #Saretzky

More tooth fragments found in the fire pit being shown. #Saretzky

Westin says bone and teeth fragments were sent to Medical Examiners office. He's now done on the stand. No cross examination. #Saretzky

Court is on a lunch break until 1 o'clock. #Saretzky

I believe DS said in his confession that it was his shoes (and therefore his rubber soles) in the fire.

I believe LE said all of the blood in the van tested as TB's.

I'll try to post a link when I'm back at my computer tomorrow.

Kamille, you have been doing a fantastic job, so if you want to keep up with the Tweets, I won't stand in your way (I'm EST so before the lunch break works best for me).
