Mike Knoll: Randy Richmond's morning update:
The Crown in the first-degree murder trial of Michael Rafferty plans to finish presenting its evidence in a London courtroom Thursday.
What happens after that remains unknown.
Defence lawyer Dirk Derstine has not said yet if he plans to call any witnesses.
The Crown presented its case in a dozen chapters, with the last expected to wrap up video surveillance evidence.
It was a video from a high school surveillance camera that gave police an early break in the case and fueled public interest.
The tape showed eight-year-old Victoria Stafford walking home after school with an unknown woman on April 8, 2009.
The woman, Terri-Lynne McClintic, confessed in May 2009 to the abduction and later pleaded guilty to first-degree murder.
Her testimony formed the foundation of the case against Rafferty, 31, who has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder, kidnapping and sexual assault causing bodily harm.
