We are back looking at the photo of the telescope clamp or bracket. Clearly separated from telescope. Bracket on floor. #tostee

Holt says a police officer picked up the two pieces and screwed them back together. Det Chalmers agrees, doesn't know who.
The detective is holding up an evidence bag containing the telescope parts. They are metal and bulky. Jury is handling the bag.

Holt says a police officer picked up the two pieces (of the telescope) and screwed them back together. Det Chalmers agrees, doesn't know who.



^ OMG!!!! Remember way back when, we were all wondering what those "unscrewing sounds" and metallic thuds were, right after Warriena fell? And we wondered if Tostee was fiddling with his weights? I think he was dismantling the telescope!! Please, let the jury have heard those sounds!

Remember, court was told that Warriena hit #tostee in the head with the clamp. Bag now being passed around among jurors.

We're looking again at a photograph of white rocks strewn around Tostee's apartment. Bag of rocks now being passed to jurors.

To recap, the court has been told Warriena was throwing the rocks at #tostee. Jurors are passing the bag around.

Holt says on August 8, arrangements were made for #tostee, his dad and lawyer to attend police station in the morning.

Holt asks why it took hours to take a blood alcohol reading on #tostee. Det Chalmers said they had to wait for medical examiner.

Next on the stand is Emily Ellis, the neighbour from two floors down, level 12.
Ms Ellis said she lived there for five or six years.
Ms Ellis says she was awake until the early hours of Friday morning. She and a friend were in the lounge on their laptops. #tostee

Ms Ellis said around 2am they heard noises, banging, scuffling, a commotion above them. #tostee

Ms Ellis said it was quite loud, coming from above, around the dining, lounge area. #tostee
— Kate Kyriacou (@KateKyriacou)
Ms Ellis said she went out onto the balcony to see what was happening. She heard a girl "pleading that she wants to go home". #tostee

Two people in the apartment, named Nick and Ryan, came out. Ms Ellis went to edge of balcony, said there was something going on. #tostee
— Kate Kyriacou
Ms Ellis said she heard some movement, scuffling. Sounded like furniture moving. #tostee

Ms Ellis said she moved to edge, looked up, saw a girl trying to climb over the balcony. #tostee
— Kate Kyriacou (@KateKyriacou)

Ms Ellis said the girl was in a rush, quickly trying to get over balcony, was doing it without much thought I suppose. #tostee
— Kate Kyriacou (@KateKyriacou)
Ms Ellis said she looked at Ryan to do something, when she looked back, she was hanging. #tostee
— Kate Kyriacou (@KateKyriacou)
 
  • #1,192
Ms Ellis said she could see the girl's feet and legs. Nothing beyond that. #tostee
— Kate Kyriacou (@KateKyriacou)
Ms Ellis said she was asking Ryan what the girl was doing, then she fell. #tostee
