Full transcript
- 0:12please be seated the record will show
- 0:14the presence of the jury the defendant
- 0:15and all
- 0:16councel Mr Martinez you may continue
- 0:19with redirect your name sir stean FLOTUS
- 0:23and you in the person testifying before
- 0:24lunch correct yes please take a look at
- 0:27exhibit 275
- 0:32are you familiar with that yes or no yes
- 0:35I am and with regard to that item is
- 0:38that the is that the what is it first of
- 0:41all it's a copy of uh instant message
- 0:45emails sent back and forth between uh
- 0:47jod Aras and Travis Alexander and you
- 0:50were asked previously on Cross
- 0:52examination about this reference to a
- 0:54three-hole Wonder correct yes is that
- 0:57the document contains that reference
- 1:00yes it is with regard to that reference
- 1:02involving that particular comment um why
- 1:07was that comment made as indicated in
- 1:09that document calls for
- 1:13speculation sustained as phrased well
- 1:16let's go go to page eight the bot at the
- 1:20bottom what is he complaining about what
- 1:24page was that against eight at the
- 1:25bottom four lines from the
- 1:28bottom uh reference to being used
- 1:31sexually by Miss Aras what is he saying
- 1:35uh specifically let me read it from here
- 1:38I think I was little more than a dildo
- 1:41with a heartbeat to you and that's what
- 1:43he's saying to her right
- 1:46yes in the previous Pages pages one and
- 1:51two and three is there do they talk
- 1:56about whether or not to tell the truth
- 1:58yes
- 2:01answering the the questions posed in
- 2:03Cross Mr
- 2:05Martinez it's part of the same um
- 2:09document and it's part of the reason why
- 2:11he's calling what he's calling
- 2:14her there's no link I mean he's he's had
- 2:17to speculate on the
- 2:19link Council approach and bring the
- 2:22transcript please
- 2:33P starts with
- 2:36Facebook yes just read it though okay uh
- 2:40me no no no no no read it to yourself oh
- 2:42okay I thought you wanted me to read it
- 2:43out loud okay and in terms of the
- 2:46reference to the three one it's toward
- 2:48the bottom correct yes go ahead and read
- 2:50the next page which is 4 16 to yourself
- 2:53okay what is the context of that
- 2:57comment the context of throughout those
- 3:01two pages is uh Travis Alexander and jod
- 3:05Aras are having a conversation and
- 3:07Travis is complaining about her lying to
- 3:13him sir you were asked
- 3:16about some iers and these are set out in
- 3:20exhibits
- 3:22numbers 265 through
- 3:252711 do you remember those and I'll
- 3:27start with 265 for example
- 3:35yes first of all you see the scale on
- 3:37there right this is exhibit number
- 3:40265 yes and what is that word there it
- 3:45says
- 3:46metric and with regard
- 3:50to these spaces in between in terms of
- 3:53the metric scale what are they cenim
- 3:56millimet kilom what are they uh the
- 3:59large section
- 4:00the small ones
- 4:02millimeters and how many millim are
- 4:06there in an
- 4:07inch uh approximately
- 4:1125 is it's a little bit more than 25 is
- 4:14it yes how
- 4:16much uh well there's
- 4:182.4 cm in an inch and then there's 10 so
- 4:22it's 2.54 or yeah
- 4:242.54 so you're talking
- 4:2825.4 millim to an inch right yes and so
- 4:31that will tell us for example by looking
- 4:34at this by counting out 25 mm how much
- 4:37an inch is right
- 4:39yes with regard
- 4:42to those particular items
- 4:46there can you tell whether not this
- 4:48really is a piece of a rope it looks
- 4:51more like a small
- 4:53thread and if you take a look at
- 4:56exhibits 63
- 4:59and 81 take a look at those first of all
- 5:02yes do you recognize those yes what are
- 5:05those photographs of uh photographs of
- 5:08the interior of Travis Alexander's house
- 5:11uh more in particular uh his bedroom and
- 5:15part of the bathroom near the
- 5:17shower and were those taken back at the
- 5:21time of the investigation of the crime
- 5:22in June of 208
- 5:25yes exibit 6381
- 5:33no
- 5:34objection exhibit 63 and 81 will be
- 5:37admitted take a look at exhibit
- 5:4263 what are we looking at
- 5:45here uh a photograph of Travis
- 5:48Alexander's bedroom and
- 5:53specifically what is this item here
- 5:56those are uh throw pillows and what's
- 5:59around around the corners of those throw
- 6:01pillows um tassel like uh
- 6:06fibers those tassel like fibers if we
- 6:08take a look
- 6:11at exhibit number
- 6:19265 you were there can you tell us
- 6:22whether or not they similar to
- 6:26those yes they are and let me show
- 6:31you another exhibit it's exhibit number
- 6:37271 you see this that's on
- 6:42there this item here you see that yes I
- 6:46do take a look at
- 6:50uh exhibits
- 6:53numbers 64 68
- 7:02okay those are photographs are they true
- 7:04and accurate depictions of an area and
- 7:06an item from the scen that existed back
- 7:08when the investigation was being
- 7:09conducted in June of 2008 Yes they are4
- 7:30no objection your honor exhibit 64 and
- 7:32exhibit 68 will be admitted this is uh
- 7:35exhibit
- 7:3764 and Orient us a little bit what are
- 7:40we looking at here looking at the uh
- 7:44interior of Travis Alexander's bedroom
- 7:47um looking from just behind the entry
- 7:51door you can actually see the door on
- 7:53the right hand side door handle and
- 7:55you're
- 7:56looking what direction kind of like a
- 7:59northe East Direction into the bedroom
- 8:01what does this door lead to that one is
- 8:04actually to the closet that parallels
- 8:06the hallway into the
- 8:09bathroom and exhibit
- 8:12number and there is something in the
- 8:14middle here this Photograph the first
- 8:16one 2 64
- 8:18correct right there yes the sandals
- 8:23Okay then if we take a look at exhibit
- 8:2568 that's a closeup of what the sandals
- 8:29in in the middle of the room and with
- 8:31regard to these
- 8:38sandals do they have any covering on
- 8:41them where a person would
- 8:42step yes uh full of fibers and you see
- 8:46this right here what is this these items
- 8:48that are sticking out from around the
- 8:49sandals those are the uh the actual
- 8:52fibers that the sandals are covered
- 8:57with and then if we take a look at
- 9:00exhibit number
- 9:04271 what is that in your opinion could
- 9:07that be is that consistent with having
- 9:09come from those shoes yes it is
- 9:11consistent and looking through this
- 9:15whole house was there ever a rope that
- 9:18was found no so if there had been a rope
- 9:23there and you didn't find it what would
- 9:27have happened to the Rope objection C
- 9:29ation is beyond the scope of
- 9:31cross
- 9:33overed uh we would have taken it I know
- 9:36but it wasn't there would you have taken
- 9:38it no if somebody had taken it before
- 9:40you would you have taken it no I
- 9:42couldn't have but did you find any long
- 9:46lengths of rope or anything like that
- 9:47when you were there
- 9:49no and did you find for example in
- 9:52exhibit 63 was
- 9:55that bedroom
- 9:57examined yes it was was the area here
- 10:00around the bed examined yes was the
- 10:06area exhibit number 64 was the area
- 10:10right around here examined yes and I
- 10:13mean I mean the lower portion was did
- 10:16any officers look underneath the bed yes
- 10:19did they look behind the headboard yes
- 10:22was there ever a knife found anywhere
- 10:25near there no was there ever any rope
- 10:27found anywhere near there in other words
- 10:29words any of these little strands that
- 10:31we're talking about were any of those
- 10:32found anywhere near the bed
- 10:36no you talk about cording off the street
- 10:40and that sort of thing when you got
- 10:41there and the house being coined off do
- 10:43you remember that yes I do what's the
- 10:45purpose of that to secure the the
- 10:47residents to keep anybody from going in
- 10:49and disturbing any evidence so that from
- 10:52the time that the police received the
- 10:53call till the time the police first
- 10:55police officer came that meant that
- 10:57nobody had access to him that place
- 11:00correct that's correct and how long did
- 11:01you keep the scene open or how long was
- 11:03the scene secured so to speak uh almost
- 11:06three days I don't have any other
- 11:08questions thank
- 11:12you I have one question from a jur are
- 11:15there any other questions from the
- 11:19jury if there are questions ladies and
- 11:22gentlemen raise your hand and if you
- 11:23need some time to write it out just let
- 11:25me know and we will wait for you Council
- 11:27please approach all right detective a
- 11:30jur has a question for you are the
- 11:32exhibits number 272 273 and 274 from the
- 11:38same
- 11:39conversation what exhibits are those
- 11:41could I see them again
- 11:44yes yes they
- 11:48are Mr nurman you may recross and follow
- 11:52up on the juror question if you have
- 11:55anything thank you
- 11:59a moment
- 12:02please
- 12:04yes find the approach owner
- 12:10Yes actually will put up exhibit
- 12:1663 again Mr Martinez showed you that
- 12:21just a minute ago you recall seeing that
- 12:24yes okay um based on the observations
- 12:29you made and I believe what you told us
- 12:31was that uh this picture accurately
- 12:34depicts what you saw at the crime scene
- 12:35on June 9th and or June 10th is that
- 12:38correct yes okay and it would appear
- 12:41that those pillows are in an unmolested
- 12:44state would you
- 12:45agree yes
- 12:51okay and you recall Mr Martinez also
- 12:54asked you about pair sandals or flips
- 12:57with some fibers on cor yes
- 13:00okay let me step back a bit um Mesa P
- 13:05Mesa Police Department you're how long
- 13:07have you been employed there uh 19 years
- 13:09okay so you're pretty familiar with the
- 13:11practices and the procedures and those
- 13:12sort of things correct yes okay um and I
- 13:17suspect then uh could you tell us
- 13:18whether Mesa police department has a
- 13:20crime lab yes we do okay and what sort
- 13:24of things does that crime lab do uh
- 13:26everything from uh DNA typing uh
- 13:30fingerprint
- 13:31analysis uh blood work uh those kinds of
- 13:35things okay so if they had known fibers
- 13:39for example from these pillows or from
- 13:41sandals or that sort of thing they could
- 13:44compare that against items you found at
- 13:46the crime scene correct um our lab does
- 13:49not do that okay so you there there
- 13:51would be no way for you to compare we
- 13:53would have to send those out to another
- 13:56lab okay was that done no okay so the
- 14:00estimation you're making that these
- 14:02These are similar characteristics are
- 14:03just based on your observation not any
- 14:07actual data testing is that correct
- 14:09that's correct okay thank
- 14:12you Mr Martinez those three exhibits or
- 14:16the three DVDs that you have in front of
- 14:17you those were from the same
- 14:19conversation correct yes they were what
- 14:21date was the conversation that you had
- 14:23of those three DVDs they were uh June
- 14:2710th
- 14:29and who initiated that in other words I
- 14:31know you made the call but were you
- 14:33returning a call I was returning a call
- 14:35uh a message to call Jody area back I
- 14:38don't have any other questions thank
- 14:40you you may step down the state may call
- 14:43its next witness State calls Heather
- 14:48Conor can you spell your first and last
- 14:51name please Heather h a t h e r Conor c
- 14:56o n n e r raise your right hand you do
- 15:00solemnly swear the testimony you're
- 15:01about to give will be the truth the
- 15:02whole truth and nothing but the truth so
- 15:04help you God thank
- 15:06you please walk right around and have a
- 15:10seat May proceed may I have your name
- 15:12please yes my name is Heather Conor who
- 15:15do you work for I work for the Mesa
- 15:17Police
- 15:18Department and how long have you worked
- 15:20for the Mesa Police Department I was
- 15:22hired in June uh or excuse me September
- 15:25of 2004 and what were your duties when
- 15:28you were ini hired when I was originally
- 15:31hired at the Mesa Police Department I
- 15:32was hired as a crime scene technician I
- 15:34was promoted in June of 2005 to lat and
- 15:37print
- 15:41examiner and what kind of uh do you have
- 15:43to have a degree for that sort of thing
- 15:45what kind of experience did you have or
- 15:46education prior to being hired I hold a
- 15:49Bachelor of Science degree in
- 15:51anthropology and journalism I have an
- 15:53associate of science degree in forensic
- 15:56technology
- 15:59and what were your duties back in June
- 16:02of
- 16:032008 in June of 2008 I was a Laton print
- 16:07examiner among my duties includes the
- 16:10Performing the comparative analysis of
- 16:13unknown finger and palm prints that are
- 16:16recovered from crime scenes and items of
- 16:19evidence to known subjects prints I also
- 16:23process evidence in the laboratory using
- 16:26various chemicals and powders and I
- 16:29respond to Major crime scenes I take
- 16:31photographs collect evidence and process
- 16:34for Laten prints with regard to this
- 16:36issue of a latent fingerprints um what
- 16:39is a latent
- 16:40fingerprint a latent fingerprint is a
- 16:42chance impression on the polymer sides
- 16:45of your hands and the soles of your feet
- 16:48we have a specialized type of skin
- 16:51that's called friction Ridge
- 16:53skin it's very similar to Corduroy in
- 16:56that there are Peaks and valleys to that
- 16:58skin
- 17:00and throughout the day you can collect
- 17:02different materials on the surface of
- 17:04your skin including oils from your face
- 17:07or hair grease from the food that you
- 17:09eat or other things um throughout your
- 17:11day and when you touch a surface you can
- 17:15leave an impression of the arrangement
- 17:18of friction ridges on your hands or
- 17:20Palms onto that surface so as I
- 17:22understand what you're saying is that
- 17:24these Impressions that are left behind
- 17:27wow let me ask it this way are they left
- 17:29behind every single time that a person
- 17:31for example touches a surface like I'm
- 17:33doing here on this Podium no there are
- 17:36many reasons of print may or may not be
- 17:38left behind well does environment have
- 17:40anything to do with whether or not this
- 17:41impression is going to be left behind
- 17:44yes ex specifically what would what
- 17:47environmental factors affect whether or
- 17:49not a print is going to be left behind
- 17:51if it's a very warm day most of the
- 17:54perspiration on your fingers is water it
- 17:58can evaporate so if it's a very warm day
- 18:01you may not leave an impression behind
- 18:03you may have very dry hands the residue
- 18:06Left Behind could evaporate from the
- 18:08surface if it's been raining the residue
- 18:12could be washed away environmental
- 18:15factors like that can affect whether a
- 18:17print is Left Behind or not how about a
- 18:20surface for example if I get a hold of
- 18:22something that's made out of wood and I
- 18:23put my hands all over it and my more or
- 18:26less likely to leave a CH or L
- 18:29fingerprint
- 18:32behind depend it's got a lot of holes in
- 18:35it just a piece of wood I would say in
- 18:38that case you're less likely to leave a
- 18:40lat and print behind on a very rough
- 18:43holy surface than a smooth hard surface
- 18:46if you think of a fingerprint as a
- 18:49rubber stamp and think about if you ink
- 18:51up a rubber stamp and press it on a very
- 18:54rough surface you don't get a very clear
- 18:55impression of that stamp left behind a
- 18:57fingerprint is the same sort of thing
- 19:00what about movement what if I'm for
- 19:03example going through something and I'm
- 19:05moving very quickly and I slide my hand
- 19:08against the surface like I did of the
- 19:10podium there am my less or more likely
- 19:13to leave a
- 19:15fingerprint you may leave a fingerprint
- 19:18behind in that circumstance but you
- 19:20could be smearing the fingerprint and
- 19:22the the arrangement won't be visible it
- 19:24won't be very clear based on the
- 19:27movement so you get these fingerprints
- 19:30let's assume that you actually lift them
- 19:32um how do you go about determining who's
- 19:36the person that left the behind let's
- 19:38say in this world where you have
- 19:40billions and billions of
- 19:41people you don't know who the person was
- 19:44that left it behind that's why you're
- 19:45checking so how is it that you go about
- 19:48affecting an
- 19:50identification the methodology that we
- 19:52use to compare fingerprints it goes by
- 19:55the acronym ACV that's a c
- 19:59e-v that stands for analysis comparison
- 20:04evaluation and
- 20:05verification in the analysis phase what
- 20:08an examiner will do is examine the
- 20:11latent impression to determine its
- 20:13overall suitability for comparison the
- 20:16overall Ridge flow of that print can I
- 20:19tell if it's a finger or a palm can I
- 20:21tell the orientation of the print how
- 20:23clear is the information is there a
- 20:27great deal of difficult ulty in
- 20:29distinguishing between the raised
- 20:31portions which would be the ridges and
- 20:33the
- 20:34furrows we're looking for three levels
- 20:36of detail in a fingerprint uh level one
- 20:39detail is the overall Ridge flow and in
- 20:42the fingers will be pattern type and
- 20:45we're looking for level two detail
- 20:48that's called Ridge characteristics
- 20:51there's many other terms that can be
- 20:52used such as minutia Galt and detail
- 20:55things like that that's going to be
- 20:57where a ridge is flowing flowing along
- 20:59and abruptly ends call that an ending
- 21:01Ridge you also have ridges that flow
- 21:03along and then Branch into two ridges
- 21:04and that's called a bifurcation so
- 21:06that's the second level of detail that
- 21:08we're looking at in the analysis phase
- 21:11the third level of detail is pores on
- 21:14the friction Ridge surfaces there are
- 21:17pores that exude sweat the location
- 21:20shape and size of those pores is visible
- 21:23in some Impressions and the other part
- 21:25of third level detail would be the the
- 21:28shapes of the edges of The Ridges
- 21:31themselves so in the analysis phase
- 21:34we're looking for all of that
- 21:35information it's fact Gathering we're
- 21:37looking to see do we have level one
- 21:39detail do we have level two detail do we
- 21:41have level three
- 21:42detail that's all with just the latent
- 21:44impression then we move to the known
- 21:47Impressions or exemplars and we're
- 21:48performing an analysis let me stop you
- 21:51there okay what if you don't know who
- 21:52the person is when you go out to a scene
- 21:54you really don't know correct that's
- 21:56correct so are you familiar with
- 21:58something called aph yes what is aphis
- 22:01is an acronym correct it is and what
- 22:03does it aphis stand for aphis is the
- 22:06automated fingerprint identification
- 22:09system and without talking about the
- 22:12actual bank that's involved just I'm
- 22:15just talking about the machine I don't I
- 22:17don't want to know how the known go in
- 22:19there okay do you understand what I'm
- 22:20saying yes okay uh does this machine
- 22:24help you then make a comparison to other
- 22:28known that may be around yes or no yes
- 22:31and what is the advantage of having the
- 22:35AP system as opposed to a human being
- 22:38sitting down and making this
- 22:41comparison the apis system is a
- 22:43searching database so we're able to
- 22:46enter a latent print into the database
- 22:48the first joint of the fingers and the
- 22:50palms and it will create a mathematical
- 22:53algorithm and bring back 10 candidates
- 22:56that the computer believes are close to
- 22:58the lat an impression The Examiner then
- 23:01is able to well then let me stop you
- 23:02then are you telling me that the
- 23:04advantage of aphis is speed yes because
- 23:06it can go through thousands upon
- 23:08thousands of fingerprints within a very
- 23:10short period of time right yes and if
- 23:13any of them are similar then it spits it
- 23:15out right yes but as an examiner that's
- 23:19not an identification correct no it's
- 23:22not because then that's when the the
- 23:24human person comes in right yes and then
- 23:28the human person does what with those
- 23:32candidates that have been spit out the
- 23:35examiner initially views the latent and
- 23:38the known impression on the screen one
- 23:40at a time and determines whether or not
- 23:42they've um they have a hit if a hit is
- 23:46declared then a known Exemplar that
- 23:49known Exemplar will be obtained by The
- 23:51Examiner and a one one comparison will
- 23:53be performance between the latent and
- 23:54the known The Examiner is the one who
- 23:56does that compar final comparison
- 23:59in our talk today uh one of the things
- 24:02that we keep referring to is that the
- 24:04fingerprints and we've been talking
- 24:05about that how about palms for example
- 24:08are Palms also unique to individuals or
- 24:11is it a situation where the only
- 24:13comparison that can be done is involving
- 24:15the fingerprints no the arrangement of
- 24:19of skin on all the Palmer surface of the
- 24:21hands is unique and so once you let's
- 24:25say that you
- 24:26have does this apis system also have the
- 24:30palm prints in it that can be used or
- 24:32not yes it does when you look at a
- 24:35fingerprint and you're doing this
- 24:36comparison are you then also able to
- 24:38orient it and find out what part of the
- 24:42uh hand is involved whether it's one of
- 24:45the fingers or in the Palm can you do
- 24:46that it depends on the quality of the
- 24:49the latent well let's assume it's a
- 24:51great quality the best quality you ever
- 24:52had can you do it
- 24:54then in many cases yes and uh if you
- 24:58have the Palm you can tell what part of
- 25:01the Palm it is then right if there are
- 25:03certain if there's enough information in
- 25:05the Palm you can use those to help
- 25:08determine where the latent is from so in
- 25:11other words are you saying that if you
- 25:13have a palm print you cannot tell what
- 25:15part of the palm print it is what part
- 25:16of the Palm it is there are latent
- 25:19Impressions that are palm prints that
- 25:20are very clear that you cannot tell
- 25:22necessarily where it originates from on
- 25:25the hand on the yes correct but there's
- 25:27some that you can right yes so you are
- 25:30so that's part of what you do then
- 25:32correct that is part of is that done out
- 25:34at the scene or is that done somewhere
- 25:36else the entry of latent into aphys and
- 25:39the comparison of prints is done in the
- 25:40lab and so that the Gathering of these
- 25:44latent fingerprints how is that done out
- 25:46at the
- 25:47scene a majority of the processing that
- 25:50we'll do at a scene in order to collect
- 25:52Laten prints is done with powder and
- 25:54lift tape and the others which indicates
- 25:58that may be others what are the other
- 26:00processes that are out there there is
- 26:02some chemical uh processing techniques
- 26:04that we can use at the scene uh
- 26:06depending on the type of residue that we
- 26:08believe a latent impression may have
- 26:10been left in in this particular case for
- 26:13example was black powder the only method
- 26:18that was used at the scene to attempt to
- 26:19gather lightning prints no it was not
- 26:22why don't you tell me what those other
- 26:23processes were in this case lucco
- 26:26Crystal Violet and what is that
- 26:29that is a chemical um that is that
- 26:32reacts to the heem in hemoglobin to
- 26:34stain a dark purplish blue color if it
- 26:38comes into contact with it and what is
- 26:41the advantage of that what is the
- 26:43advantage of this Luc Crystal Violet
- 26:46lucco Crystal violet or
- 26:48lcv um is spec does not react with the
- 26:54regular constituents of fingerprint
- 26:55residue so if there's an impression that
- 26:58I believe is left potentially in oils or
- 27:02fats
- 27:03or lipids that sort of thing I would not
- 27:06use luuc crystal Violet lucco Crystal
- 27:09Violet would be used to search for
- 27:11potential Impressions that are left in
- 27:14blood for
- 27:16example so the value of Luco Crystal
- 27:19Violet is that the print may have been
- 27:22left in medium other than for example
- 27:25sweat or Oils or something like that
- 27:27correct that's correct and the way you
- 27:28sort of seem to say it it's specifically
- 27:30designed when you believe that perhaps
- 27:32the print is left in blood that's
- 27:35correct in this case also again as part
- 27:38of going to the scene lifting
- 27:40fingerprints and that sort of thing do
- 27:42you do anything with the evidence or
- 27:43items that are going to be taken back to
- 27:45the lab for future examination whether
- 27:47they be Laten fingerprints or whether
- 27:49they be anything else yes all items of
- 27:52evidentiary value are photographed and
- 27:54then collected by Meat which are then in
- 27:56turn impounded into our evidence section
- 27:58it would seem to me though that if you
- 28:00have all these items of evidence out
- 28:01there and if you're just photographing
- 28:03them and collecting them that you're not
- 28:04going to know where which is where you
- 28:06found something so for example if
- 28:08there's some shoes over there there's a
- 28:09gun over there how are you going to know
- 28:11what number what which is which the way
- 28:15in which we will document evidence to be
- 28:17collected is it will be marked typically
- 28:20with a an identifier such as a number we
- 28:23have what we call placards they look
- 28:26like small plastic tents that have
- 28:28numbers on them and we will typically
- 28:31put those next to an item of evidence
- 28:34photograph it with that placard to
- 28:37document how it will be identified
- 28:39later um that's with regard to items
- 28:42that you can take what about if there's
- 28:43an item one of the things that we've
- 28:44been talking about is L fingerprints or
- 28:46blood smears that sort of thing um how
- 28:48is it that do you also put a number by
- 28:50those or do you put a different sort of
- 28:52designation so that you know that what
- 28:53you have is something that you didn't
- 28:55take but you took a sample of certainly
- 28:58in in some cases a different type of
- 29:00identifier will be used in this case I
- 29:02used letters for those things that were
- 29:04photographed that could not be collected
- 29:07directly let me show you an exhibit you
- 29:10recognize exhibit
- 29:13249 yes I do what is
- 29:16it that is a diagram of a portion of the
- 29:20scene that I responded to which portion
- 29:23of the scene are we talking about it
- 29:25appears to be the master bedroom when
- 29:28it sounds like you're not sure are you
- 29:30sure or are you not sure yes it is it's
- 29:32the master bedroom closet and bathroom
- 29:35is this a true and accurate depiction of
- 29:37the scene as it existed when you were
- 29:40there and you conducted your work yes it
- 29:42is and how long were you there
- 29:44conducting your
- 29:46work we spent over three days at the
- 29:50crime scene when you say we it's sort of
- 29:51a royal thing I'm I'm not interested in
- 29:53what others may have done how long were
- 29:55you at the scene because that's what
- 29:56really is testifying
- 29:58three days all right and uh there were
- 30:01others that were there with you correct
- 30:03yes there were were there also
- 30:06technicians there with you yes and who
- 30:08else would have been there with you
- 30:09assisting throughout this
- 30:11event in what capacity in any capacity
- 30:15there were several detectives there at
- 30:17at various times um officers there was
- 30:21members of the biology unit of the Mesa
- 30:24Police Department and also another Laten
- 30:26print Examiner when you say uh the
- 30:30members of biolog biology unit what do
- 30:32they concentrate on uh DNA evidence and
- 30:36in this particular case you can see that
- 30:38there's a variety of numbers here and
- 30:41there's also red areas embodying that
- 30:44sort of thing is this a true and
- 30:45accurate depiction of all the items that
- 30:47were at seeing at the time that we were
- 30:49there during those three days in June of
- 30:502008
- 30:55Yes moment
- 30:59n ex exhibit 249 isend I think we may
- 31:02have already talked a little bit about
- 31:03this but just um your view area
- 31:12there where it says 44 and 24 do you see
- 31:15that there not from here I apologize I
- 31:18can't see
- 31:22that this area here do you see it here
- 31:25yes I do what is that area tell me a
- 31:28little bit about that area there that is
- 31:31the two doors those are the two doors
- 31:32leading into the master
- 31:34bedroom and those are numbers
- 31:37designating items of evidence that were
- 31:39collected from those doors with regard
- 31:42to the doors did were did you check or
- 31:46anybody that you you were supervising
- 31:49did anybody check to see what type of uh
- 31:52lock that was involved
- 31:54there there is a photograph of that
- 31:56locking mechanism and I have
- 31:59okay now after you walk in there and you
- 32:02take a look at this right here what is
- 32:05this that's marked this 45 I mean what
- 32:07are we looking at there 45 is a piece of
- 32:11carpeting that was at the
- 32:13entry to the hallway leading to the
- 32:16master bathroom that had a large area of
- 32:18red staining on it that was collected
- 32:20and did you walk down that hallway yes
- 32:23and as you walk down that hallway
- 32:28where did it take you to the master
- 32:30bathroom and once in the master B
- 32:34bathroom where is the tub in comparison
- 32:37to the door as you walk in it would be
- 32:39to your left and is that where the body
- 32:42was from the body was found in the
- 32:44shower that was to the left yes and just
- 32:46just to make clear they had both a
- 32:48bathtub and a shower correct yes was the
- 32:52body found in the shower I think is what
- 32:53you said correct yes all right let's
- 32:55take a look at some thanks
- 33:05take a look at exhibits one through S
- 33:08and see if you recognize what's depicted
- 33:10there guys what's there yes I do and
- 33:13what areas do those photographs
- 33:17depict this depicts the entry in the
- 33:20front of the home that I responded to
- 33:23the garage and a portion of the laundry
- 33:25room of that scene those true and ACC
- 33:28depictions of those areas again as they
- 33:30were on the date that you responded and

- 35:11house and the exposure of the house what
- 35:13direction is towards my pan This Way
- 35:18North okay wouldn't that be that way
- 35:20North that way rather than this way
- 35:21isn't this
- 35:23sound let's take continue looking at it
- 35:25okay exhibit number two
- 35:30what is
- 35:31that that is another view of the front

- 35:36door and it also shows a closer up of
- 35:39what the vehicles that are parked in the
- 35:41garage and driveway and how many are
- 35:43there three
- 35:46total and exhibit
- 35:51number three
- 35:58what are we looking at
- 35:59there that is a photograph of the front
- 36:02door entry and the numbers of the
- 36:04residents and what's the address of the
- 36:06residents
- 36:0811428 and what's the Street Queens
- 36:20orrow zibit number four
- 36:28what do we see
- 36:29there that is a photograph of the open
- 36:33garage door view into the garage and the
- 36:35two cars in that garage what kind of car
- 36:37is this do you
- 36:39know a Toyota Prius
- 36:43okay and the color given how glary this
- 36:48photograph is what color was it when you
- 36:50were out there do you know I believe it
- 36:52was black okay
- 36:58exhibit number
- 37:01five the rear of that Toyota
- 37:04Prius
- 37:08okay if you
- 37:11then look over here to the right do you
- 37:14see what that
- 37:16is that is a doorway leading from the
- 37:18garage into the laundry room of the
- 37:21residents then
- 37:29and this right here is
- 37:34what it appears to be a garage door
- 37:36opener okay and this right
- 37:41here I don't know what that is you
- 37:43familiar with light switches yes does
- 37:45that look like it could be a light
- 37:48switch it it appears to
- 37:50be and then if
- 37:54we just shows us the rest of the garage
- 37:57and
- 37:58what's here correct yes and do you know
- 38:02what this
- 38:03is a bicycle
- 38:10okay now exhibit number six
- 38:16is
- 38:18what that is a view a a a a view of the
- 38:23laundry room that includes the washer
- 38:26and dryer that we're in inside that room
- 38:28and this door here where's does that
- 38:31lead to that door leads to the garage
- 38:35and if we take a look at exhibit
- 38:37number
- 38:39five do you see this door here yes I do
- 38:43are those one in the same doors they
- 38:50are exhibit number
- 38:52seven also shows us a door are you
- 38:55familiar with which door this this one
- 38:58is I believe that is the same door we've
- 39:01been discussing from the laundry room to
- 39:03the garage when you say you believe it
- 39:04sort of implies that you're not sure
- 39:06take a look at
- 39:08it and then if we take a look
- 39:11at exhibit number
- 39:14six you see that same door those are the
- 39:17same doors and is this then the door
- 39:20that leads out to the garage yes it is
- 39:23and what is this up here
- 39:27alarm keypad of some
- 39:29kind take a look at some more
- 39:33photographs take a look at exib 8
- 39:36through
- 39:3816 do you recognize those photographs
- 39:41yes I do what do they depict these
- 39:43photographs depict the washing machine
- 39:46and the contents of that washing machine
- 39:48and again were these photographs taken
- 39:51at the time of the investigation back in
- 39:53June of 2008 of this one yes they were I
- 39:57move for the admission of exhibits
- 39:59numbers 8 through
- 40:0316 exhibits 8 through 16 are admitted
- 40:07first of all let's take a look at
- 40:09exhibit number six that's the one that
- 40:13uh we just talked
- 40:19about and what is this right here that
- 40:23is a dryer and this right here washing
- 40:26machine all
- 40:31right exhibit number eight shows us what
- 40:35what are we looking at
- 40:38here that is a reddish stain that was on
- 40:42top of the the edge of the washing
- 40:48machine exhibit uh number nine what are
- 40:53we looking at there that is looking at
- 40:55the same area of the washing machine
- 40:57pulled back a little bit with some label
- 41:00some stickers to label and identify some
- 41:02stains seen on the washing
- 41:04machine are these the reddish stains
- 41:06that you guys were looking at or just
- 41:08stains generally reddish brown
- 41:14stains there's a red number on there you
- 41:19see
- 41:22that I'm red I'm sorry black you see
- 41:25that yes um um I thought in our previous
- 41:29discussion we indicated that if it's
- 41:31something that you can't seize or that
- 41:34you take a swab from that you would
- 41:36actually would give it a
- 41:37letter what's going on with these ones
- 41:40in
- 41:41Black these particular stains were
- 41:44labeled by a member of the biology unit
- 41:46so that presumptive testing could be
- 41:49performed I wasn't involved in these
- 41:52labels so in other words these are
- 41:54labeled by somebody from the D the
- 41:56biology unit to see see whether or not
- 41:57this was blood or something right
- 42:04correct exhibit number 10 is a closeup
- 42:08of one of those ones correct yes it is
- 42:11and if we bring it in a little bit
- 42:13closer it has something to the side of
- 42:16it you see that I do what is that the
- 42:19letter B so for example then if we go to
- 42:22the previous
- 42:24exhibit there are two ones there
- 42:28one would be either well we can look at
- 42:33it we can see that they're labeled with
- 42:35letters also correct this one is yes and
- 42:39then if you take a look at the other
- 42:41one doesn't seem to have a letter on
- 42:43there though right it does
- 42:51not exhibit number 11 what are we uh
- 42:55give you a better view of that
- 43:03what are we looking at there that is a
- 43:06photograph into the washing machine when
- 43:08the lid was lifted during the entry
- 43:10photos and there are some items in there
- 43:13correct yes there are this
- 43:20is exhibit number
- 43:2412 what are we looking at there that's a
- 43:27digital camera that was found inside of
- 43:30the washing machine and for the sake of
- 43:32completeness is this the way the camera
- 43:35was at the time that you guys went into
- 43:39it and started taking photographs of it
- 43:41yes it was and uh you were there on what
- 43:46dates June 10th 11th and 12th and it ran
- 43:51into the 13th on the 12th all right
- 43:57exhibit number
- 43:5913 what are we seeing
- 44:02here that is another photograph of the
- 44:05contents of the washing machine now with
- 44:07those evidence placards that I discussed
- 44:09to identify items that were going to be
- 44:11collected right 39 is what 39 is all of
- 44:16the contents of
- 44:19the the the washing machine with the
- 44:21exception of the camera so this is all
- 44:24the clothing articles and 38 is the
- 44:25camera that's correct
- 44:28and exhibit number
- 44:3214 is that just a different view of how
- 44:35the items are placed in there yes it
- 44:39is in just looking at this and you were
- 44:42there and that's the reason why I'm
- 44:43asking it doesn't seem like this is a
- 44:44full load does
- 44:48it
- 44:52over it didn't appear to be full no
- 44:59exhibit number 15 what are we looking at
- 45:02there that is a photograph of the camera
- 45:05after it's been removed from the washing
- 45:07machine and placed on butcher paper in
- 45:09order to take additional uh Vantage
- 45:12viewpoints of that camera and exhibit
- 45:15number 16 is what a top view of the
- 45:23camera let's take a look at exhibit
- 45:25number
- 45:32no thank you this is a digital camera is
- 45:36this a digital camera that we see
- 45:38pictured in exhibit
- 45:40number
- 45:4416 may I refer to my report your honor
- 45:47in order to refresh my recollection yes
- 45:49you
- 45:54may I agree
- 46:0026
- 46:04and this is the same camera that is
- 46:06depicted in the wash that's was
- 46:08collected from inside the washing
- 46:10machine but inside of that plastic is
- 46:14something else inside the camera
- 46:16right yes do you know what that
- 46:20is looks like power cords of some kind
- 46:24right but uh as as far as you're
- 46:26concerned the only thing that was taken
- 46:27from that washing machine is the camera
- 46:30that's in that exhibit correct yes I may
- 46:33have it
- 46:52back right exhibit 214 is admitted and
- 46:55it will be repackaged the power
- 46:59cord
- 47:00correct you know whether or not there
- 47:02was a SIM card attached to this thing
- 47:07there was a memory card inside of the
- 47:08washing machine that was also
- 47:10collected okay please take a look at
- 47:12exhibit
- 47:15number do you recognize that yes what is
- 47:18it this is the memory card that was
- 47:21collected from inside the washing
- 47:24machine and
- 47:27that actually packaged it I guess
- 47:28correct when it was originally in the
- 47:30envelope
- 47:31yes Mo for the admission of exhibit
- 47:3725 no objection 25 is
- 47:45admitted and what we're actually looking
- 47:47at is
- 47:48this square or rectangular blue thing
- 47:52correct yes it's not do you know the
- 47:54dimensions of this
- 47:57or is it just very small it's
- 48:00small let's take a look at exhibit
- 48:03Number
- 48:04220 you recognize that yes I do what is
- 48:08it this is what I labeled as a digital
- 48:10camera door that was found at the bottom
- 48:13of the washing machine and was collected
- 48:16was this after the clothing had been
- 48:17removed
- 48:22yes I move for the admission of exhibit
- 48:25number 2
- 48:3420 no objection y 220 is

- 1:19:12door of the master bedroom double doors
- 1:19:19okay move for the admission of exhibit
- 1:19:21number 231
- 1:19:30objection none your honor is
- 1:19:50admitted take a look at this exhibit and
- 1:19:53describe
- 1:19:54and unlocking mechanisms of of this
- 1:19:58door
- 1:20:03Appliance the unlocking mechanism is a
- 1:20:07key hole okay the locking
- 1:20:12mechanism is a flat piece that's turned
- 1:20:16which one was on the inside and which
- 1:20:18one was on the outside of that door the
- 1:20:20inside was the locking mechanism which
- 1:20:23has the flat piece that turn turns and
- 1:20:25the exterior door knob was the one that
- 1:20:28has the unlocking key mechanism on it so
- 1:20:31in order to get into that room if if it
- 1:20:33had been locked from the inside would a
- 1:20:35person need a
- 1:20:36key yes and in order to lock it if you
- 1:20:40were inside would a person need a key or
- 1:20:43would they just need to turn the knob or
- 1:20:45the item
- 1:20:48there a key would not NE be necessary so
- 1:20:53does that mean that the person could
- 1:20:55just turn the little knob there or bump
- 1:20:58or whatever and close it from the inside

- 1:32:24exhibit number
- 1:32:2676 what are we looking at there that's a
- 1:32:28photograph of the victim inside of the

- 1:32:32in the shower with the
- 1:32:40victim take a look at exhibit
- 1:32:48230 recognize
- 1:32:52it yes I do what is it this is that
- 1:32:55plastic cup from inside the shower it
- 1:32:58looks kind of black or dark is that mold
- 1:33:00or what is that this item was processed
- 1:33:03in the laboratory for lat prints and you
- 1:33:06indicated that there was a couple of
- 1:33:08processes that could be used one of them
- 1:33:09being uh powder and and the other one
- 1:33:13being nuc Crystal W
- 1:33:16correct those were types of processing
- 1:33:19that we do at a scene right yes but in
- 1:33:21this one powder was used right
- 1:33:24this item was brought back to the
- 1:33:26laboratory and was processed with a
- 1:33:27variety of different things all right
- 1:33:30and we any results
- 1:33:33obtained refer to my reports
- 1:33:53no no Laten prints were developed on the
- 1:33:55plastic cut one of the things that you
- 1:33:57told us was that there were
- 1:33:58environmental factors that would affect
- 1:34:00whether or not not an individual leaves
- 1:34:02a lat and fingerprint do you remember we
- 1:34:04discussed that earlier yes I do with
- 1:34:06regard to water if water is run on an
- 1:34:08item is will that affect the ability to
- 1:34:10later obtain a latent fingerprint it can
- 1:34:13yes why in some cases if water is run
- 1:34:18over a surface it may obscure that
- 1:34:20latent impression that was left behind
- 1:34:22it could wash away the res res do or
- 1:34:25something of that
- 1:34:26nature and how about if the person is
- 1:34:28turning the cup as they're doing
- 1:34:31whatever it is they're doing with it
- 1:34:32would that also affect whether or not
- 1:34:34they might uh leave behind a usable
- 1:34:37Laten fingerprint how an item is handled
- 1:34:40will always affect how whether or not a
- 1:34:42latent print is is Left Behind or not I
- 1:34:45move for the admission
- 1:34:50of no objection 230 is admitted
