"How do we know that other stuff is reliable evidence?"

10:09am. John Healy's defense attorney, Rebecca Wittman, begins her summation (closing argument).

-"Keep an open mind, and hear me out."

-We again hear about the misidentified glove/do-rag.

-On Dr. Julie Shkane's testimony, who did her own Internet search on the type of vehicles she witnessed at a Washington Mills gas station February 27: "I'd ask you to think about incidental contacts you have with people. If someone asks you for directions this morning, would you be lucky to remember where they were going, much less details about the vehicle they were driving?"

-On the robbery: "Nobody in Lennon's identified anybody. Nobody in Lennon's identified anyone with a beard."

-10:23am. On the glove: "Why harp on the glove? If the glove wasn't properly handled, how do we know that other stuff is reliable evidence?" "Why wasn't the glove tested for DNA?"

What part of "Dr." Julie Shkane is Rebecca Whittman missing? She is a very intelegent person as is her husband. Both are very well educated people. Consider her husbands profession as a lawyer they both are used to remembering details. I personally spoke to to Julie and while I cannot tell you what she said, she and her husband both have a very good reason to remember both the vehicles and the occupants.

He was in the get-away car that crashed and if he wasn't guilty why did he run from the police? Why did he have possession of the stolen jewels on his person? Why is he using someone else's identy with his picture? He is guilty!

NYS law says if a murder is commited then all persons involved in the activities which lead to the murder are also guilty. so the driver of the getaway car would be found guilty of second degree murder.As the law reads

Hey Andy keep us informed today.

I'll check in this afternoon. By that time some of the posters should be going after each others throats for what they say.

What I want to know the police found a pettet gun in the car, who's pettet gun was it?

Another thing, while Officer Corr was chasing richardson/healy who was shooting at Officer Corr (if richardson is driving)?

I would think driving over 60mph on Rt 5 on a snowy nite you have to have control of the car, wouldn't you.

if you wish we could probably look at every case ever held in NYS, they would all the different. The only one that matters today is this case, and the law that is prevelant to it.

HE'S GUILTY, BUT HE'LL PROBABLY GET OFF IF THE JURY HAS THE SAME DUMB MENTALITY AS SOME OF THESE BLOGGERS.

WE ALL KNOW THAT HEALEY IS NOT BEING TRIED FOR MURDER 1ST, BECAUSE HE DIDN'T PULL THE TRIGGER. ITS MURDER 2ND, SO GET WITH THE PROGRAM. EVERYONE NEEDS TO GET THE FACTS STRAIGHT, BEFORE THEY POUR THEIR EMOTIONS.
