Good Morning Everyone! Will the defense keep making points that don't matter? Will they continue to object to hearsay while trying to put words into witnesses mouths?

"You can tell a lot about a woman by the contents of her purse," Assistant District Attorney General Takisha Fitzgerald told jurors Monday in opening statements. "At the end of this case, you're going to find everything you need to know about Ms. Coleman and her involvement in this case inside her purse."

That's it in a nutshell. She knew where the items came from because she knew Channon was there being tortured and most likely she knew that they weren't going to let her live. She had no problem taking Channon's things for her own.

Last encounter w/ Davidson, Sutton says choked her. Defense surely will pursue this more on cross

Sutton lays out sleep arrangements in Chipman, says Davidson physically abusive so she left

Sunday when she went to Chipman, Davidson blocked her from going into bathroom and kitchen. Never saw Vanessa there but heard noise in bathroom. Cobbins sitting in chair by kitchen door.
