That is funny, mine is on the 16th. Maybe that's why I was drawn into the case.
RIP and HB to her. 😇

I saw something about this guy on my twitter feed today. I’ll go look for a link. Something about him asking to see a photo of her (the perp asking). You guys might have discussed it, but I haven’t been back to this thread since his arrest and was surprised to see her name on my twitter feed today then realized I missed the hearing. Thanks for all the updates.

A paragraph from the above article. More at link:

“During the ride he asked me if the victim’s family was watching on the news, and he asked me if he could see a picture of her,” Quezada testified. “I said, 'No.”

“A state judge in Queens on Monday shot down an effort by lawyers for the man accused of killing Howard Beach jogger Karina Vetrano to keep his confession and DNA evidence out of the case.

“The ruling by Queens State Supreme Court Judge Gregory Lasak in the case against Chanel Lewis of Brooklyn means that there probably will be a trial — or a disposition by plea bargaining . . . “

OMG. that would be huge if they tossed it out. Do we know why the defense thinks they’re allowed to have it thrown out of the case?

The article in the AM New York https://www.amny.com/news/jogger-kil...ens-1.16947588 says:
The defense said the May 2016 stop of Lewis was unlawful because the cops didn’t have probable cause to approach him. But prosecutors said the stop and questioning of Lewis was permissible since it was based on a 911 call about someone possibly trespassing or loitering in backyards.

The defense was trying to say that the DNA was only available because of this unlawful stop in May 2016. The article also says the defense is raising all of this in the event they need to appeal a guilty verdict.

This article, https://www.thedailybeast.com/he-confessed-to-karina-vetranos-murder-but-did-he-do-it, also has info about possible flaws with the DNA but I'm not sure if those were part of today's motion. The AM New York article gives the story about how they caught him but the Daily Beast article gives a different accounting, based on court testimony.
