The witness today was awful; BOZ was reaching and not effective, and unfortunately the most important part of today's testimony is that the CPD is indeed inept. Whether through accident, stupidity, or just plain malice an important piece of evidence, NC cell phone was destroyed and it's value to either side was rendered nil.
What the jury will take away from this mess is not known. But what I see, IMHO, is that the CPD is not to be fully trusted in the handling of electronic/digital evidence. And so much of this cases important evidence rests solely on digital media.
If the inference is, that evidence entrusted in the care of the state, is lost or destroyed, even with the best of intentions, they may just disregard anything the state produces with regards to digital evidence.
I again believe BC is guilty. If he happens to get acquitted, the bugling of NC cell phone will have played a big part. And it is a damn shame.....
