defence is also throwing friends and family of the co defendant under the bus, and the co defendant who has pled guilty did it all
They're gonna need a bigger bus.... The judge is going to allow evidence/testimony about the Abhijit Mahato (murdered Duke grad student) death.
And yes, joe, I agree -- the defendant's DNA in her car may be a bit of a prob...
I will be forever haunted by the photo of him at the atm withdrawing Eve's money. I enlarged it and discovered Eve's face in a reflection in the back passenger window where she was being held by the other . I am sickened when I think of the terror those two committed against her.

Defense is trying desperately to discredit this witness.
I have looked in my rearview mirror at times when driving away from others who are driving erratically, suspicious people who have followed me out of a parking lot, etc.
This young woman did the absolute right thing to drive away. Kudos for her for being so observant. Can you imagine the outcome if she had left the safety of her vehicle and attempted to return to the sorority house? No way I would have exited my vehicle!

Thats interesting. Is that photo still available? I'd like to see it.
I am not able to follow this trial live. What testimony was this referring to? Was there another near-victim?
Hi everyone! I am so glad to see you all are following along in remembrance of Eve. I am just down the road in ILM.
borndem, I snipped this from your above post. Hope that's ok
Unimaginable and inconceivable. He may well have been a cute little 3-year old once. What happens to these people? What is it inside them? Or is it something that is missing?
JMO. What is missing for many is a father. I worked in the public school system before retiring in '08. I worked one on one with at risk children who were bussed from the inner city, all AA. I keep up with my former students. Two of these students were killed in crime related deaths, one is serving 30 years for assaulting and raping 2 women and another is serving life for murder. Not one of these students that I worked so closely with had a father in their life. Heck, we would either make a home visit or pay for a cab for mom to come to the school for conferences. I think environmental factors certainly have an impact on why these kids go bad. Sad.
BTW, I watched a documentary on HBO about the rivalry between UNC and Duke and it showed the tribute to Eve by the basketball teams. It was very touching. If your are a basketball fan, I highly recommend it.
I hope Lovette gets what he deserves. I will be forever haunted by the photo of him at the atm withdrawing Eve's money. I enlarged it and discovered Eve's face in a reflection in the back passenger window where she was being held by the other . I am sickened when I think of the terror those two committed against her.
I just wanted to check in and say thanks for the updates and the links. I am going to have a good cry now and say a prayer for Eve's family and for justice to be served.

The atm video was just shown in court. It clearly shows Eve facing AWAY from the camera. I'll see if I can google it.
Yes, a young woman was in her car in a parking lot next to her sorority house arguing with her boyfriend on the cell phone. The S house was close to Friendly lane. While sitting in her car talking to her bf she noticed (thru her rear view mirror) 2 AA men standing in the parking lot and looking at her. She then exited the parking lot and drove to bf's because she was unnerved by this incident. This occured before Eve was kidnapped.....
The defense contested the jury hearing this testimony so the jury was sent out for 20 mins while both sides questioned the witness. the judge allowed the testimony.

I've seen the ATM photo where you can just tell there is someone in the backseat. But I never saw a photo that was in a good enough format to be able to see Eve.
