Can you run down the list of facts for me ?What do we know happened.
What caused the mechanical asphyxiation and what facts prove it was manual strangulation?
Depends on what side of the fence you're on. Two ME's testified that the injuries on the victims neck could have only gotten there by SOMEONE applying DIRECT PRESSURE to the neck. The injuries to her neck were consistent with deep tissue trauma that has ONLY been observed in cases of mechanical asphyxiation consistent with manual strangulation, (per the two ME's). I choose to believe them as this ain't their first rodeo. They see hundreds of cases every year. To discount their testimony would be to assume that they are evil people who want to send an innocent man to prison for life and for reasons not yet known.
