Dighton PD provided me the tow report last August. Ofc. Barros noted in the report "the vehicle had damage to the right rear taillight". He is telling jury about that now

defense has previously said taillight was cracked but not shattered or destroyed at this time

Ofc. Barros tells jury taillight was "cracked"

Lally is finished with Ofc Barros. The defense has no questions for him. Jury sent out for a break. Lawyers at sidebar with Judge

Sgt Barros also says there was some snow covering a portion of the tail light...agrees with Lally it was "caked on there." Waited 30-60 min for Proctor and Bukheke to come out.

He says he never saw anyone messing with the tail light. With that Sgt Barros is done with no cross examination.It's time for the morning break.

Officer Barros helped tow truck get Karen's car from Dighton driveway at her parents' house on January 29th. He says he noticed the right rear tail light was cracked with a piece missing, and there was a dent in the same area of the car.

Direct examination done. Defense has no questions for this witness. Morning recess now.

Things lally is doing that further validate the defense. The mirrored video, the KR audio recording implicating ca and ba, and now the testimony by the police sgt that the tail light was only cracked. Bravo lally.JMOO

How is there video of people standing there and then suddenly they’re gone?? They wouldn’t need to use motion to leave the room? So they’re either wearing Harry Potter’s invisibility cloak or they are all Nightcrawler from the X-Men. JMO

Having conducted an almost comedic routine of utterly useless gestures before being zoomed out completely... or beamed up or AI'd?

Yet amazingly, nobody took a picture. JMO

Barros says he spoke to Trooper Proctor on the phone. He went with Proctor and Bukhenik to Read’s parents house. Tells Lally he also called the tow truck.

Says he noticed Read’s taillight was cracked and a piece was missing.

I wonder why the defense didn't ask Ofc Barros to tell the jury exactly what the damage to the tail light was?

 

[housewife]

They are breaking again?
And why does the judge allow Lally ample time to shuffle papers while the defense has limited time even speaking?

Is the Judge a civil judge or criminal?

Does anyone think the jury members wrote down in their notebooks that Officer Barros said the tail light was cracked, but not completely broken/ shattered? I betcha they did !!

Geez

 

[themonk]

Yeah, I thought it was smashed into 1,000 pieces? Another great CW witness. JMO

"a piece was missing"

Karen Read should send Nicholas Barros a 'thank you gift' when this is all over Julie Albert style

@TedDanielnews

Jackson showing video from another camera in the sallyport (poor quality) that would have shown the right rear taillight area and anyone around itAsks YB why there is a 42 minute gap after KR's SUV is driven in by tow truck driver.YB says cameras are motion activated and video was not altered in any way.

View attachment 509180

So is this video mirrored as well? Are all videos from the sallyport recorded as a mirror image?

Because the CW is saying the mirror image video was not altered, it means the footage was recorded that way. That doesn't make sense.

 

[housewife]

Cannot write the words I want to use to characterise Lally right now.
"What if any/anything..." is your *** case based on?
(Ask it differently echoes in the background)

Hos dumb does the prosecution think the jury is?

"What, if any, of my witnesses testimonies have actually helped the defense?"
IMO.

What does he mean by a piece? As opposed to multiple pieces? Did he even give an estimate of the size of the piece? Defense should have crossed him imo.

Kerry Roberts just saw a single piece missing also.

45 pieces was definitely overkill, Proctor Trooper. Next time you try to frame someone by planting evidence, try to make it at least a little believable.
