by Phil Tenser 5/19/2015 8:03:58 PM

by BV 5/19/2015 8:04:19 PM
Patricia Hawkins 1st autopsy was Veronica Moser Sullivan

by Phil Tenser 5/19/2015 8:04:20 PM
Veronica Moser-Sullivan, youngest victim of the shooting

by Phil Tenser 5/19/2015 8:04:48 PM
Sweet baby....to have to do an autopsy on someone that age just has to be heart breaking. Its all heartbreaking of course...

Brady asks to approach

by Phil Tenser 5/19/2015 8:07:27 PM
What a sweet little face. She had her whole life ahead of her but JH took it away!

by Liz 5/19/2015 8:07:29 PM
@Phil, What do your Coroners have for Degree's out there? MD of course, but I am sure there are a few Higher degree's that they have. Asking, as I am Speculating the coroners will be the ones that do the Photo's.

by NT8 5/19/2015 8:07:34 PM
@NT8: Yeah, both involved were MDs.. not sure about the rest of their CVs

by Phil Tenser 5/19/2015 8:07:52 PM
@RRose I agree, it is tragic that anyone was hurt or killed but an innocent child seems to hurt a lil bit more.

by Abrandt 5/19/2015 8:07:58 PM
All of the autopsies mentioned have been on people that have had friends or family testify about them so far, I think. Will they stop when they get to those that haven't had friends testify? Macayla hasn't been mentioned once other than opening statement.

by DocJ 5/19/2015 8:09:27 PM
This is gonna be very painful.

by NT8 5/19/2015 8:09:40 PM
Prosecution was trying to introduce several items collected during the autopsy

by Phil Tenser 5/19/2015 8:09:48 PM
When they talk about Veronica, it just kills me. My son was 6, like her, at the time of the shooting and I remember just yearning so badly to hear it was a mistake, that a little child wasn't killed that night. It just pains me. I can't even imagine her mother's pain. Poor baby. :( makes me want to cry even now.

by AJS 5/19/2015 8:10:39 PM
- Judge's Order

by Phil Tenser 5/19/2015 8:11:31 PM
That picture alone is crushing

by NT8 5/19/2015 8:11:54 PM
WOW

by FMM 5/19/2015 8:13:27 PM
And this is the time when JH shows his boredom. I would think this isn't a good time to be yawning and fidgeting!

by Sal 5/19/2015 8:13:28 PM
Ohhh, this is painful. :(

by AJS 5/19/2015 8:13:29 PM
The DT has veered the PT away from any testimony about children so this should be interesting regarding Veronica.

by Kristle 5/19/2015 8:13:30 PM

by sydnijmm 5/19/2015 8:18:00 PM
In case anyone is following my witness spreadsheet at bit.ly I had to change the witness numbering (I had inadvertently given one witness two numbers, when he was continued on the next day, Peter Hunkar, witness 85)

by Rheba 5/19/2015 8:18:29 PM

by NT8 5/19/2015 8:19:23 PM
Sullivan suffered gunshot wound, but no bullet fragments found (Like we heard about Gordon Cowden earlier today)

by Phil Tenser 5/19/2015 8:19:25 PM
@NT8 I 100% agree...disgusting!

by Liz 5/19/2015 8:19:33 PM
