A jury was chosen Wednesday morning to hear the capital murder trial of Billy Frank Davis Jr., who is charged in the slaying and rape of an 8-year-old girl, when it starts Monday.
In the roughly two days before 8-year-old Ahliyah Nachelle Irvin was slain in 2012, the man charged with her killing consumed lines of cocaine and bottles of vodka, his then-girlfriend testified Tuesday.
In the midst of it, the child, looking for her playmate, sometimes visited the apartment where Billy Frank Davis Jr. and his girlfriend, Sondra Adams, were drinking alcohol and using drugs.

Several dozen photographs were displayed as Pojman pointed out injuries to the victim, who was killed due to asphyxia, which includes either suffocation or positional suffocation, Pojman said.
