The state’s case against Brandon Scott Lavergne took a strange turn Tuesday when the lead prosecutor, Assistant District Attorney Keith Stutes, asked the court for an evidentiary hearing “limited to the perpetuation of testimony.” It remains a mystery whose testimony the state is seeking Friday at 10 a.m. ...the only summons issued by the court are for Lavergne, Stutes and Lavergne’s attorneys

It's fine to discuss pre-hearing news about who's arriving to the courthouse, etc.

 

[Lera213]

I have all 6 tabs open to KLFY and KATC facebook and twitter. I'll try to report all but maybe if someone else is monitoring we can split.

For those who couldn't see the live shot, he walked past the reporters, staring straight ahead, ignoring reporters' questions. He tilted his head slightly down as he passed the reporters. He has a rolling gait, probably from the cuffs. His lips were pressed tightly together and downturned. From the side, his lower lip noticeably protruded. His eyes looked dead - nothing there. He's totally bummed. Hands cuffed in front, with a chain running around his back. No noticeable injury to his right hand; had a pretty good view of most of the fingers; couldn't see much of the left hand. His arms were not very hairy. No visible tattoos on them. He didn't look somewhat handsome, as he did in some of his mugshots; he looked stumpy, dumpy, and coarse. Looked very Cajun from the side.

KATC doesn't seem to be live streaming it - anywhere else that may have it? I don't want to wait for a post-hearing update, I wanna know what's going on NOW!

I don't think cameras are allowed in the courtroom.
