This is a summary of what Kilgore brought in from witness Ms. Eastland's (sp?) original phone interview with Detective Murphy on July 9, 2014, the interview she said on the stand she didn't remember having, and some points of her testimony that contradict what she'd stated in direct as well as that 2014 statement:
She heard RH's car, tires squealing, enter the parking lot. She said he was in a panic. He immediately took Cooper out of the car, by himself, and laid him on the ground. He tried doing CPR. He yelled for someone to call for help.
After a short time he moved away from Cooper. He was screaming- " what have I done, what have I done. I killed my son. My son is gone. Oh God, oh God, what have I done?"
She saw him on his phone, still screaming. She told Murphy that "nothing seemed suspicious" about what RH did or said.
She told Murphy that her companion (Leonard Madden, but she only remembered his first name, and only with prompting) approached the scene, but that she had hung back.
On the stand, replying to Kilgore, she said: there was a time when Cooper lay alone on the ground with no one near (untrue); that RH began crying "sobbing" after he was arrested, and she could see him sobbing on and off in the police car; that she didn't hear him screaming in the police car; that his hands were on his head at some point when he was screaming- and pacing (note- so couldn't have been holding phone?), and that he was handcuffed very shortly after LE arrived.
(Will compare direct and cross of witnesses in bulk when I find my computer charging cord,
too lengthy to do compiling and typing on my phone.)
