TN - Chris Newsom, 23, & Channon Christian, 21, murdered, Knoxville, 6 Jan 2007 #1

[SuziQ]

Never saw anyone have sex with girl.

 

[SuziQ]

Claiming he never touched the girl. Detective saying then there would be no reason for your dna to be on her.

 

[SuziQ]

He didn't try to stop events at the house basically because he was scared of his brother.

 

[SuziQ]

Claiming he's telling the truth now.

 

[SuziQ]

Had no knowledge that carjacking went down. Detective not buying it that they all didn't talk and plan this.

 

[SuziQ]

Still claiming to be telling the truth.

 

[SuziQ]

Claims girl never screamed. Describing blanket over Davidson's door had no door.

 

[SuziQ]

Questioning about touching removing and going through the victims belongings.

ETA: Cobbins says never did.

 

[SuziQ]

Davidson gave Vanessa a purse.

 

[SuziQ]

Cobbins saying Daphne lying about seeing them at the house on Sunday. Detective asks why would Daphne lie?

"Did u think these 2 people's lives were in danger?" Still asks. "I did but I didn't," Cobbins says. Huh?

"I didn't touch the girl," Cobbins tells detective in third interview

 

[SuziQ]

Thank you Jamie, because I can't hardly hear and understand what is being said.

Was Cobbins scared of his brother? "We fight like we ain't kin," he tells investigator

 

[SuziQ]

Brought two vics into house. E left house with boy. Was gone 20 mins. Came back without boy. E's demeanor was fine. Cobbins didn't ask questions. Girl was in back bedroom. E went back there 15 mins?

 

[SuziQ]

Audio over. Pros question.

 

[SuziQ]

Oops defense cross.

 

[SuziQ]

Defense saying not stopping this and snitching on brother is the act of a coward. Detective said it could be one of the reasons.

 

[SuziQ]

Per defense it's against the law to commit rape, but it doesn't mean one commited murder. Still agrees.

 

[SuziQ]

Confirming that Cobbins ID's E and Channon. Did not ID Chris.

 

[SuziQ]

Consistent with someone who saw little of that boy to that point. Per defense.

 

[SuziQ]

Pointing out that Cobbins waived his right and voluntarily talked to detectives. Painting him as cooperative and a coward but not a murderer obviously.
