Can a social worker testify about a jailhouse conversation with Andersen? Not without proof of written consent says judge citing medical ethics.
Kim Shute @NT_Princeton29m9 minutes ago
Prosecution told by judge no consent, no testimony from social worker. Defense says state just tried to introduce barred evidence.
Kim Shute @NT_Princeton234m34 minutes ago
Prosecution hopes to have document (written consent) allowing social worker testimony. Mistrial would only be considered if they attempt to elicite testimony without it.

After lunch has been a LOT of technical education about cell phone records, towers, pings. Hoping to figure out soon what they're getting at...
Prosecution enters evidence taken from defendant's home
Witness describes Andersen as panhandling ‘nuisance’
July 13, 2018
"The third day of testimony Friday in the Putnam County trial regarding Deborah Dewey's murder included the introduction of dozens of pieces of evidence seized from the home of Clifford A. Andersen Jr., her brother-in-law....
Items taken and entered as evidence by Assistant Illinois Attorney General Bill Elward include gloves; soiled towels; six bottles of carpet-cleaning solution; cleaning brushes; multiple lengths of rope, which Wasylyszn said matched the rope found in the grave; a cellphone; a journal with press clippings about Dewey's disappearance; a checkered shirt that matched a description mentioned earlier in the trial by a different witness; missing person fliers; a washing machine hose; a blue tarp; a bag of straw hay; a carpet cleaner; and carpet fibers....
The prosecution expects to be done with presenting its evidence and witnesses by next Wednesday, and Judge Stephen Kouri said he was hopeful to have the jury deliberating before the end of the week."
Judge rules in defense's favor regarding barred testimony
Cellular confusion also arises during the 4th day of testimony
7/16/2018
"According to Judge Stephen Kouri, Assistant Illinois Attorney General Bill Elward's repeated attempts to include barred testimony during the trial of Clifford A. Andersen Jr. on Monday was "flirting with mistrial."...
Before the day's proceedings were underway, Kouri announced a juror had been relieved for reasons unrelated to the case, and one of the alternates filled his seat."

Prosecutors plan to bring crime scene investigator to the stand after finishing with State Police agent who is testifying about cell phone records.

Dewey's family very emotional as graphic evidence is beginning to be introduced into testimony. Hard to have to see them suffering.

No mistrial for Andersen — but it was close
Judge won’t let disputed witness testify
Jul 17, 2018
"...Prosecutors are close to concluding their case in chief — they might rest Wednesday — and want the jury to convict Andersen of first-degree murder. Andersen would face 20-60 years if convicted of murder...."
No mistrial for Andersen — but it was close

Expert witness in Clifford Andersen murder trial says no evidence to exclude Aug. 22 as Deborah Dewey's time of death, but date not nailed down.

DNA experts show blood in Standard house belonged to Deborah Dewey but so far only carpet cleaner could have possible DNA link between Dewey and Andersen. Testimony seems to point out where DNA didn't match more than where it did.

Crime-scene technicians didn’t find much DNA from Deborah Dewey or her alleged killer — but where they did find it could be bad news for murder suspect Clifford Andersen.
(Clifford Andersen leans in to attorney Rob Parker while a prosecution witness testifies about blood stains found inside the wheel wells of a carpet cleaner at Andersen’s Standard house.)
Little DNA found at Standard crime scene
But a carpet cleaner showed Dewey’s blood on wheels

"HENNEPIN — Crime-scene technicians didn’t find much DNA from Deborah Dewey or her alleged killer — but where they did find it could be bad news for murder suspect Clifford Andersen.
Kevin Zeeb, a forensic biology expert, took the stand Tuesday and spelled out a long list of items tested for DNA, including Andersen’s shoes and watch. Nothing showed a trace of Dewey’s blood — with one exception..."
