#BoydTrial - Defense is now pointing out the inconsistencies in Boyd's testimony yesterday vs. his statement to police in 2007. https://lawandcrime.com/live-trials/live-trials-current/eric-boyd/watch-live-eric-boyd-on-trial-over-rapes-and-murders-of-tennessee-couple/ …


Cathy Russon‏ @cathyrusson 6h6 hours ago
#BoydTrial - Defense to Thomas: You didn't care what happened to Channon Christian.....like when you said, "*advertiser censored** that white girl." Thomas says the detective took that statement out of context.

Cathy Russon‏ @cathyrusson 6h6 hours ago
#BoydTrial - Defense points out that Thomas has previously said Boyd and Davidson took Newsom away, then he said just Boyd did but yesterday he said it was actually Boyd and himself.


Cathy Russon‏ @cathyrusson 6h6 hours ago
#BoydTrial - Another inconsistent statement - Thomas told investigators previously he never saw Boyd go in the bedroom where Christian was, but yesterday he said he did. https://lawandcrime.com/live-trials/live-trials-current/eric-boyd/watch-live-eric-boyd-on-trial-over-rapes-and-murders-of-tennessee-couple/ …


Cathy Russon‏ @cathyrusson 6h6 hours ago
#BoydTrial - Defense points out how small the house is and that Channon Christian was being brutally raped. Thomas continues to deny hearing or seeing her being raped.


Cathy Russon‏ @cathyrusson 6h6 hours ago
#BoydTrial - Defense says in the previous trials the medical examiner testified that Chris Newsom was raped a couple of hours before death. Thomas says he knows that's what she testified to.


Cathy Russon‏ @cathyrusson 6h6 hours ago
#BoydTrial - Thomas is done testifying. Thomas's testimony puts Boyd there which is likely all that is needed for this jury even if they don't believe everything he said. Plus testimony that Boyd's cousin's car was seen there. However, cousin couldn't "recall" anything.

Next witness, Jody Long, #BoydTrial #WATE


Madisen Keavy‏Verified account @madisenkeavy 6h6 hours ago
Long drove Coleman, Cobbins, and Thomas to Kentucky after the murders, She didn't know them, but was doing a favor for a mutual friend by driving them. #BoydTrial #WATE


Madisen Keavy‏Verified account @madisenkeavy 6h6 hours ago
Long says she sees the three people she drove to Kentucky on the news the same night, realizes she's just driven them to Kentucky. #BoydTrial #WATE


Madisen Keavy‏Verified account @madisenkeavy 6h6 hours ago
Defense only asks Long one question, to clarify "CAP" which is community alternatives to prison program. In line, I'd say, with putting doubt in the minds of jurors to her testimony. #BoydTrial #WATE

Some of the trashbags investigators were able to get prints off of. Specifically Davidson's prints--palm more than fingerprints. No prints from Boyd. #boydtrial

Now the trashcan Channon was found in is being placed into evidence. This is tough for Channon's family. They have their arms around each other. #boydtrial

Jury still seems attentive for the most part. Several keep taking notes. One young man is chewing slightly on his fingernail. The other young people are watching closely. #Boydtrial

Now, cross examination. #BoydTrial #WATE


Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 3h3 hours ago
Cross examination begins. Lots of nuance about fingerprinting and how they go about doing DNA swabs. Worth noting at this point, Frazier was a prosecutor before he was a defense lawyers. This feels like a little bit of that, not sure how this detail helps Boyd. #boydtrial


Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
The *defense* is now asking questions that supports the evidence collection and cred if the evidence tech. Only angle I see here: if tech is super qualified...and they don’t find anything on Boyd...than there’s nothing on Boyd. #boydtrial

She asks to refer to her notes when asked the approximate size of the house on Chipman St.. 805.8 sq ft, she answers. She's also going to give the square footage for each room. So all you architectural engineers/interior designers, this is for you. #boydtrial

The house could fit inside the courtroom. A fact that's been demonstrated time and time again in these trials. #BoydTrial #WATE


Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
Jokes aside, both sides have something to gain from this. By showing how small the house is, the state can say if Boyd was inside he had to have been involved. The defense can say: if the house is this small, how can Thomas be credible when he says he didn't hear anything?
 
Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
Now she's testifying about the nuances of 22 caliber handguns. Also other types of guns. Remember, Thomas said yesterday that Boyd had a gun that police haven't recovered. #boydtrial


Madisen Keavy‏Verified account @madisenkeavy 2h2 hours ago
.22 caliber could be automatic or revolver, which goes back to Thomas' testimony pushed on by defense that at one point he said revolver, yesterday he said automatic. Now, she says it could also be those or a rifle. #BoydTrial #WATE


Madisen Keavy‏Verified account @madisenkeavy 2h2 hours ago
This is the state's firearms expert. Nailing down the .22 questions that have come up since Thomas' testimony. #BoydTrial #WATE

Expert in forensic firearms #BoydTrial #WATE


Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
If Fitzgerald wanted to dunk on the jury, she could reference the Thomas quote from yesterday and ask "so you know guns?" That was his refrain yesterday on the stand. Pretty clear Resig knows an expert level of info. #boydtrial



Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
For those of you watching our stream, hard to see what she's doing now. She's handling the guns found in the case, standing directly in front of the jury box. #boydtrial


Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
Resig is still going over the guns and how she processes them. This is very show and tell for the jury. She's holding up a bullet fairly dramatically in front of the jury for them all to see. #boydtrial

She's opening an evidence bag with a bullet that was recovered from Chris' back. And now one recovered from his skull. #boydtrial

Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
He worked for the state fire marshal's office in 2007. This is an investigator in the scene where Chris was burned. #boydtrial.


Madisen Keavy‏Verified account @madisenkeavy 2h2 hours ago
Foster is talking about K9 unit he was part of. He's describing the moments K9s tracked in the railroad area, where Chris Newsom's body was found. #BoydTrial #WATE


Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
He’s describing the scene on the railroad tracks where Chris was burned. A trained dog “had a change in behavior” meaning an accelerant was detected. #boydtrial


Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
The original fire marshal investigator in this case has died. Remember it’s been 12+ years since the crime. This is his assistant now testifying. #boydtrial


Madisen Keavy‏Verified account @madisenkeavy 2h2 hours ago
Says the K9's behavior changed. Officer tells dog "show me", which tells the dog to show the officer the best place by sitting or pointing snout to the best area for the officer to collect evidence. #BoydTrial #WATE

Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
Whitfield also took pictures at the railroad tracks. It was a burned scene near the railroad tracks on the gravel. Whitfield found a piece of colorful cloth from the scene, days later. Could that fabric be the same used to tie up Chris and Channon? #boydtrial


Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
There’s a photo of that same fabric we’ve seen earlier in the case. It’s been tied into knots. #boydtrial

There was also a dog leash found at the scene, it’s been moved into evidence too. #boydtrial


Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
After fumbling around with the evidence bags and latex gloves for a bit, he’s now showing the jury charred pieces recovered at the railroad track scene. Small pieces of char are falling off. Now he’s holding up the strips of cloth used to tie Chris up. #boydtrial

It’s been a long day of tedious testimony of all this crime scene evidence. The jury is starting to look a bit weary. One juror is spinning slightly in her chair. Some of pens in hand, but none taking notes. #boydtrial


Cole Sullivan‏Verified account @cole_sull 2h2 hours ago
*some have pens in hand. Defense is doing what he claims is a brief cross examination. Frazier approaches with transcript from Cobbins’ trial where he testified it was 80 yards from the tracks to the evidence recovery. He said 50 yards today. That’s it. #boydtrial

She's struggling to remember how this all happened. She says she saw Davidson in a Toyota 4Runner with an orange power t on it. She says the music was really loud. #boydtrial

Sutton says she gave him the clothes back. She was upset they weren't new. She gave clothes back to Davidson, but not everything. #boydtrial

Davidson calls Sutton to pick him up. She does. She says Davidson was wearing Chris' shoes on early Monday morning. They went to bed. #boydtrial

Sutton says her mom called her after Channon's body was found, worried it was her body found in her house. She says "his eyes got really big" as he knew what she was learning. She then told Davidson he had to leave. She drove him to Boyd's apartment complex. #boydtrial

Sutton says the crime scene video of Chipman shows the trashcan where Channon was found and the gas cans were not where she usually kept them. #boydtrial

Frazier: "When was it that you became totally honest with law enforcement in this case?" "The third time." Frazier: "Again you never saw Mr. Boyd at Chipman St.?" Sutton: No. #boydtrial
