Documents & Records
Voicemail-access records the defense sought to introduce as showing messages had been opened by 8 a.m. on November 2
Buting said the records would show access to Halbach's voicemail by 8 a.m. on November 2, while acknowledging that he did not know who accessed it and was not arguing that Halbach was alive then. The State objected on relevance and potential-confusion grounds, and the judge said he needed more time to consider their relevance.
About
Buting sought to use the records to argue that police had not followed up on who accessed Halbach's voicemail; the judge declined to allow them at that time but left the question open.
