Shoe prints in this scene
They're ballistic evidence, if green. It seems it was from bullets hitting objects, falling, pieces coming from outside. They had earlier exhibits showing the "rods" inserted into bullet holes around the front door that showed most of those were from outside, in the front yard.

I don't know if it was 32, but most all did. He said only one came from inside the building. Pretty sure that was the one that was found under the trailer. It went through the floor of the trailer, fired from inside.
Lucal chrystal violet can help unseen footprints appear. If he sees a partial footprint, he knows there is probably more next to it, but can't see it. The LCV stuff makes it show up, has a fixative in it that makes it stop after it has developed the unseen footprints.
Also cut out the whole footprint. Cut the floor and all. That's why they waited until the end of processing the scene, because its a big, messy process to cut out the pieces of floor with footprints.
Correction: Leuco Crystal Violet

Dang... sounds like Ws were scared to get too close. I am trying to figure how they got both victims unless one came out to see what was happening and got shot too. I have always thought they got 1 outside and went in to get the other... but that seems wrong now.
Other Footwear prints going into kitchen
Take photos, use different camera settings, angles, filters, etc. to get as much detail from the print.
Seeing characteristics of shoe some expert at lab should see. Detail standing out in a certain area of shoe there was no wear pattern at all

Footwear impression close to the door at entrance to the trailer.
LCV applied. Beforehand took same series of photos as others. Didn't touch it.
Defendant and attorney are all looking at the camera, I think? Looks like they were looking at us.
Used power tool to extract from floor. Sent to lab. Opening box with this 4th bloody shoe print in it.

Must be one of the graphic images judge ruled against us seeing.
Looking at photos of blood trail in kitchen area, back toward bedroom area where victims were left.
Begin to see footwear impressions on top of the blood. Indicates the person walked back to the area after the bodies had been dragged back there.
Think this is 5th shoeprint. Multiple photographs but might not mean much at the time, but can only see so much detail. For that reason they take a lot of photos for expert examination later.
Wish we could see this diagram showing location of shoeprints

Were able to just cut the linoleum to get that footwear impression. Kitchen had linoleum. Open box, show exhibit, identify
GW4 is writing again, taking notes
A shell casing found in the kitchen, between the back wall and a table.
Stipulating - insufficient data for determining DNA
Submitted because it could have had touch DNA on it
Firing a shell in a gun can destroy DNA on a shell casing.
Stopping for now, not finished with this witness yet.
Adjourning court for the weekend. Will be back on Monday 9 am.

So happy there is/was a confession(s). I feared an Amanda Knox/O.J. Simpson kind of defense. Throwing doubt on every piece of evidence no matter how crazy; to cast doubt on the mountain of it against them. Blood evidence collected wrong, missed stuff, police corrupt or incompetent, test done wrong, etc
Makes it tuff when your co-murderers confess.
