A friend just drove by the site and the search is still underway. Been going almost 48 hours now. I noticed in one of the news videos there was as officer using a metal detector, near the blue tent they've set up on the dirt road. moo

Prosecutor agrees to gag order in Nassau County mom's murder

Some quotes:
YULEE, Fla. - Prosecutors have agreed to a motion from the defense attorney for a woman suspected in the murder of a Nassau County hairstylist that asked the court to ban anyone involved in the case from speaking publicly about it.

Attorney Charlie Cofer argued that Nassau County Sheriff Bill Leeper and the family of Joleen Cummings, who disappeared in May, are influencing potential jurors in the murder case against Kimberly Kessler by publicly calling Kessler "evil" and a "violent killer."
Click to expand...
Cofer filed a motion last week asking the court to stop "all parties and law enforcement officers involved in this case, or other persons having any knowledge of the facts of this case" from commenting publicly about the case.
Cofer's motion said public comments made by the sheriff, the state attorney and members of Cummings' family "will irreversibly prejudice [Kessler's] right to a fair trial in Nassau County."
Click to expand...
Cofer asserted that between May 13 and Sept. 12, Leeper had appeared on TV and offered "public opinions about the facts of this case and opinions about the defendant's guilt herein."

The State Attorney's Office agreed to the motion Thursday, and no more public comments will be made in Kessler's case.

Quoting:


This makes me :mad: !
Joleen is still missing!
At the very least, her family should have a right to speak out about what they think happened to her.
I hope the motion is denied.

After considering the reasons for it I believe the judge was right.
I don't want a mistrial or to give KK any reason for appeal.
But it is still upsetting that KK can silence Joleen's family while Joleen is still missing. JMO.
:(
 
Nassau County is a smaller county than Duval. Duval is Jacksonville, Fl which is the largest city in the state. The amount of security and resources are incredibly bigger here than in Nassau.

Evidence filed in Nassau mom's murder case includes witness statements

:eek: Some quotes:
New documents show that Kimberly Kessler, the woman accused of killing Nassau County mother of three Joleen Cummings, knew she was wanted by the FBI.

According to newly-filed evidence, Kessler admitted she “had been running from the FBI for 25 years, and was wanted in several states.”
Click to expand...
The documents were released as part of the discovery process, and show law enforcement interviewed dozens of people who knew or had contact with Kessler.

In one of the interviews, investigators spoke to a Fernandina Beach woman who told them Kessler admitted to her that “she used to rob banks and she had 5 aliases.”

The summary states that Kessler said she didn't know where Cummings went after she left work on May 12. When a detective asked Kessler about marks she had on her face, Kessler said she ran into a tree limb while biking. She told a store employee it was "a zit out of control."

The marks can be seen in Kessler's initial mug shot taken (above, left) at the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office.

There's a hint as to some tension between Kessler and Cummings, according to the evidence summary. Kessler told a detective Cummings told her to, "Go away, you are fake," to which Kessler replied, "What do you mean?"

The prosecution also submitted a report from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement on the forensic analysis of the cellphones belonging to Kessler and Cummings. Investigators said they have one of Cummings' fingernails, but the summary gave no clue as to where it was found.
