Calhoun's attorney implies evidence planted

BONIFAY Day one of the Johnny Mack Skeeto Calhoun murder trial began Wednesday, with defense attorney Kim Dowgul suggesting that evidence in the case may have been planted.
The one thing youve got to ask yourself during the course of this case, what if this evidence is movable, what if this evidence had been moved there, what if this evidence is too perfectly planted there? Dowgul said during her opening statement to the jury.
Calhoun is charged with first-degree murder and kidnapping in the slaying of 24-year-old Mia Brown of Bonifay. Brown went missing after she left work at Charlies Store in Esto on Dec. 16, 2010. Her body was found in the trunk of her burned Toyota Avalon, which was abandoned in the woods of Geneva County, Ala.
Representing the state, prosecutor Brandon Young painted a different picture for the jury during his opening statements.
It all started with agreeing to give someone a ride and as sad as this saying is, it holds some truth: No good deed goes unpunished, Young said. Instead of her giving him a ride, he put her in her trunk and took her for a ride. He then took her to the woods and set fire to her car. It wasnt just her car set on fire; it was her car with a very much alive Mia Brown in it, which she then died being burned alive.
State Attorney Glenn Hess began calling witnesses, starting with Browns boss from her employment at the store and her dentist, for purposes of verifying Browns identity through dental records.
