GUILTY - Tammy Moorer trial for Kidnapping Heather Elvis, 8 Oct 2018 #4

[Simply Caustic]

If this video is (as rumored/expected) footage of him telling his mother that he made up the story, it will effectively discredit him, in my experience.

Also, he didn’t make enough to need to file taxes, IIRC, isn’t it approx >10k that must file as a single taxpayer? to suggest that makes him a criminal is laughable, given the already healthy amount of data that shows he’s had a criminal history.

Looks like it's going to be entered, the court recorder just put a label on it - dang!

The Defense's Duty to Turn Over Discovery

The male prosecutor is now debating with the judge. I am almost certain the discussion is about them not being made aware of this recording.

They are probably objecting to its admissability as evidence because they were not told about it in discovery.

Just guessing but a huge drawn out debate with judge about something going on.

Honestly, after watching the defense's tactics, it would not surprise me if they kept this recording hidden from prosecution on purpose.

We're back. Recording marked as an exhibit.

Defense was provided the recording by the state by mistake!!!! PLaying that recording now

I think it is $2,000, but I agree. He probably has never made $2,000/year in taxable income. He probably earns most of his money under the table.

The jury is seated back in the courtroom. While they were out they admitted the recorded phone conversation between DeMarino and his mother while he was in jail. The jury is listening to it now.

THESE FEEEDS ARE AWFUL TODAY!!!!!!!!!

 

[Hatfield]

omg....it sounds like the prosecution turned over this tape to the defense by mistake and that is how they got it. Good Grief.

I couldn't make out that short snippet of that recording that was just played.

Right now the defense is playing an audio recording of Demarino talking to his mother on the phone while he was in jail. In the phone call, his mother asked why didn't you tell me about a picture? Demarino says it's not true. @WBTWNews13

*eek* Get this kid off the stand and let's move on!

ETA: I still believe him but this is incredibly awkward and I feel bad.

DeMarino says he told his mother on the phone that he didn't see a picture of Heather on a phone. Now, he tells the defense what he said to his mother was a lie because he didn't want her to stress about it.

I think this it the very first time in this trial, that the defense has been effective in their cross examination of a State's witness.

 

[2Hope4]

He said under his breath "You're pissing me off"

 

[Chelly]

Defense is talking down to witness, berating him. Treating him like a dumb kid.

Demarino tells the jury that he lied to his mother so she wouldn't worry. The defense said in his testimony earlier, Demarino testified he never lied to his mother. The defense said they just caught him in a lie. @WBTWNews13

#TammyMoorer - NOW: Jail house call between Tammy's cousin and his mother being played for the jury.

Mom: Why didn't you tell me they showed you a picture?
DeMarino: It's not true

#TammyMoorer - DeMarino said he lied to his mom because he didn't want to stress her out.
Defense: Under oath today you said you would never lie to your mom.
