Photographs
Photograph of a cut that the jury had seen
The photograph showed a cut that jurors had already seen. In a Day 11 procedural discussion, the parties disputed a proposed question about whether the pictured cut, if actively bleeding, could have been the source of a dashboard bloodstain; the court sustained the objection.
About
The court sustained the defense's objection to eliciting an opinion linking the pictured cut to the ignition-area bloodstain, noting that jurors had seen the photograph and could assess its appearance themselves.
