Day 2 of Eric Boyd Trial for Christian-Newsom Murders

I'll write a summary for Betsy Ross this weekend. Jamie Satterfield tweeted the jurors were affected by the autopsy photos.

The state got a win at day's end, when the judge allowed prosecutors to read into the record Adrienne Mathis' (Boyd's cousin) testimony in the 2008 federal trial, where she told of loaning Boyd the Sunbird allegedly used in the kidnapping. The grounds are Mathis' "amnesia" makes her presently "unavailable."
