And the Judge is?...
:judge::facepalm:

TM's phone data is where in all this?

I guess we won't know that until her trial. Which is why I think they should have been tried together.

That's gotta be a hassle being a witness IMO. BBM

The filings in court are to secure out-of-state witnesses for 12 days starting Aug. 29 and ending Sept. 9.

An affidavit filed in the Sidney Moorer kidnapping case has requested a witness attend the Court of General Sessions starting Aug. 29 and last for approximately 12 days.

According to the affidavit filed July 13, Stephen Schiraldi was asked to be in court during the period of Aug. 29 through Sept. 9.

What the what? Any clue what this is about?

I didn't realize you had already posted about this, PTF. Is this normal?

SS will again be a witness for the state. Nothing unusual going on, IMO.

Thanks magnolia. After reading the article from WPDE that PTF posted, it all makes sense now. From the WMBF article I posted, it wasn't clear those were potential dates for a retrial.

I wonder if Truslow intends to ask for a change of venue.

I wonder if Truslow intends to ask for a change of venue.

Since the case was heard in MB last time, not too sure. But since he was very close to being convicted 10/2- maybe Truslow will be more aggressive this time around. Could this be seen as a delay tactic and not seen in favor of the state? Interesting to ponder.

BBM - I totally agree, I think it will be hard to convict her. I believe SM was the easier one to try.

Are you comfortable sharing why you think it will be hard to convict TM? Just wanted your thoughts. Thank you!

I think it will be hard to physically place her in the events of that night. So far we have not seen much evidence of that.

Thanks- fair enough. I'm looking forward to seeing her phone logs and hope she has some location information from her phone. Looking forward to seeing the evidence found once her trial starts just behind hubby.

Well, we have Sid's word on camera in the against-gag-order interview saying she was in the truck at Walmart (and presumably at the payphone as well). :facepalm:

Yes, possible one hand, hand of all.

I'm basing my question on an interview Truslow gave right after the trial. He said there would probably be a new venue for the retrial.

Perhaps he thought his trial strategy was the best approach for this case. I thought he was a too passive myself.

Sorry- I must have missed that in his interview. So, please excuse my reply. Let's just hope one of Truslow's buddies is not part of the jury next time.

Yes no more buddies on the jury or the Bench please.

That has got to be something Mr. Elvis regrets. I don't think the cop or Terry instantly understood the seriousness of her car being left there. Terry probably thought he was protecting his daughter by taking it. Unfortunately, the moment he left with the car, possible evidence was contaminated. That could have been instrumental in determining if she drove herself there, if there was someone else's fingerprints/DNA in car. I always had a problem with LE insistence that she drove herself to PTL and that the crime took place there. With the addition of the LB information, I highly doubt she drove herself to PTL. The way they insisted, I thought there may have been video of Heather driving herself there, but I don't think that was the case. This could have been the missing piece to this puzzle. How much time passed from when Terry took the car until it actually got processed? Did Mr. Elvis clean out the car before it was processed not realizing that it could contain evidence?

I would say no one cleaned the car out by the photos we saw. It was a mess! Not sure of the timing, Problem it was contaminated, and it was not properly processed. I do not think she drove to PTL. MOO.

I can't tell you how nice it has been that the Moorer's have finally been silenced in Social Median. I tried not to read it but with everyone referring to it constantly, it is hard to ignore. Thank you to the prosecutors for finally scaring their mouths shut. Knock on wood.
