The taillight was already missing hours earlier, that morning, as seen on the photograph from the dashcam, as posted above from Sgt. Barros' testimony.
Sgt Barros was called by the Defense for the purpose of telling what he saw regarding the taillight.
He said he saw the taillight mostly in tact at the Read’s home before it was taken into custody on a tow truck.
The Prosecutor Brennan on cross repeatedly asked questions that confused Barros, until it appeared Barros agreed that it was not mostly in tact but broken just like the prosecutors claimed.
Barros did not clearly state at any time that the taillight he saw was broken up and looked the same before being towed as it did later.
So- the degree to where the taillight was broken before being towed and photographed in custody is still in question.
The car appears in a video at JOK’s when KR is backing up that morning, and bumps JOK’s car.
It also appears in a photo at her parents house with snow on the back.
There is a video of the car being loaded on the tow truck that shows the taillight.
