No interview with Canton PD or Massachusetts state police either.

AND JenMc was NEVER asked to go down to police headquarters for witness statements! And Gallagher only spoke with BA???

AJ is now asking Lt. Gallagher why he wouldn’t go the mile to Canton PD to pick up swabs and evidence bags to collect evidence properly.

 

[Wishbone]

AJ is asking Paul Gallagher If you were the first to see the glass and blood spots, why not write a report on what you found?

He points out that documenting the details of evidence recovery is standard in such investigations.

No diagrams or notes/reports from Gallagher.

He recovered evidence and didn't memorialize it himself. He was instrumental in uncovering evidence that should have been detailed by his own hand. In addition use of the leaf blower, the plastic cups, the paper bag all came from his decision IIUC, yet no report from him to that effect.

Long testimony, love to see the other officers testify as well. IMO

 

[ShadyLady]

He does not know the meaning of the word "document".

 

[Forest_Wood]

Wait, that’s weird. Why did Lt. Gallagher initially think the call was to Meadows Ave - where John lived??

Remember that Kerry called the CPS to ask about a missing person? She informed them of his name. So the cops knew who they were looking for and he must have assumed the guy in the snow was found on John’s street . MOO

OMG. This guy is a clown.

 

[kuromiiiilove]

Gallagher suggested it’s hard to contaminate DNA evidence? lol

 

[kuromiiiilove]

They didn’t photograph or document where they picked up the samples in the six solo cups. Wow.

 

[Derph]

So this "detective" used a leaf blower which he thought was the best tool available at that time to look for and find evidence and yet he DIDN'T UNCOVER ANY OF THE 40-SOMETHING PIECES OF TAIL LIGHT THAT WERE RECOVERED HOURS LATER?????!!!!!! You've got to be kidding me here!!! You can't believe this amount of BS and keep a straight face.

Gallagher acknowledges there was no forensic seal on the bag with the cups. He looks a bit embarrassed.. or maybe miffed.

No evidence log that the cups were put into the refrigerated unit on 1/29. Why no evidence logs?

 

[Soulmagent]

Seriously ...
Ask him to explain the chain of evidence as he understands it in his employment duties.

Gallagher acknowledges there was no forensic seal on the bag with the cups. He looks a bit embarrassed.. or maybe miffed.

Or he's just a complete idiot.

 

[kuromiiiilove]

NO DIGITAL EVIDENCE LOG for the blood and who was handling it. WHY?

 

[kuromiiiilove]

And that’s all we get! If I were Gallagher I might be tossing and turning tonight knowing AJ isn’t done with me yet.

 

[Soulmagent]

Judge is really ready to get out of that robe today!

Unbelievable excuse after excuse by Gallagher.
He sure is arrogant.
Curious how his testimony went over in the first trial.

imo

How she even became a judge is mindboggeling.
