Today the main focus was on the heart stick on the duct tape and showing that Casey had heart stickers. Also, some mitochondrial DNA evidence was shown and explained, trying to connect it with the hair found in the trunk of Casey’s car. It also appears that the State will rest tomorrow morning. However, the defense will not be ready until Thurs., so I anticipate court will be relatively short again tomorrow. The defense has already stated that they will file a motion for a directed acquittal, which means that they are stating that the prosecution has not proven their case and the Judge should rule for an acquittal for the defense. This is normal and standard procedure i many cases. Also, one of the links below describes an incident with one of the defense lawyers and Judge Perry. Judge Perry stated that he could not trust anything the defense says now.
