‘I’m going insane;’ Ex-girlfriend testifies about text messages Mathew Borges sent her before allegedly decapitating Lawrence High School classmate

Soriano was the second witness to be called in the trial, which began with opening statements Monday morning. Another ex-girlfriend of Borges’ - 18-year-old Leilany DeJesus - testified first.
[.....]
Assistant District Attorney Jessica Strasnick printed out text and Facebook conversations that she submitted as evidence Monday. She had Soriano role play these conversations, the 18-year-old reading what she sent and Strasnick reading Borges’ responses.

Borges, who sat between his lawyers, barely took his eyes off of the table in front of him during Soriano’s testimony. His hair, which was long and covered his eyes after his arrest, was cropped showing the freckles on his face.
[.....]
The trial will continue Tuesday with more testimony from Soriano and from law enforcement, prosecutors said.

Mathew Borges Trial: Jury Hears Gruesome Details In Beheading Case

4/30/19:
LAWRENCE (CBS) — On day two of the Mathew Borges trial, jurors heard from the man who found victim Lee Viloria-Paulino’s body and multiple police officers involved in the case.
[.....]
Eighteen-year-old Stephanie Soriano reappeared to briefly continue testifying first. On Monday, she told jurors she and Borges had been talking for a few months leading up to Viloria-Paulino’s murder.

Witness Omar Medina told the court Tuesday he was walking with his dog behind his house, along the Merrimack River, when he noticed a body.
[.....]
Medina called Leidia Feliciano, his then-girlfriend, to confirm that he was seeing a body before they called police. She was brought before the court to testify on the sequences of events on Dec. 1 as well.

Lawrence Police Detective William Olivieri then took the stand. As a patrol officer, he was one of the first people to respond to the riverbank scene in 2016.
[.....]
Mass. State Police Sgt. Brian O’Neill was a death investigator for the district attorney’s office in 2016. On the stand, he recalled canvassing the area and noticing a plastic bag in the river.
[.....]
A friend of Lee’s briefly took the stand. As a juvenile, he was not identified or videotaped.

Samuel Paulino and Ivelisse Cornielle, Lee Viloria-Paulino’s uncle and grandmother took the stand next.
[.....]
Viloria-Paulino’s aunt took the stand before Lawrence police detectives Michael Montecalvo, Barry Desjardins- Lawrence, and Kevin Schiavone.
