KY - Ed Dansereau, 63, Pamela, 58, & Calvin Phillips, 53, murdered, Pembroke, 19 Nov 2015 *arrest*
6/3/21 Thursday, Day 1 of Trial: Judge ruled it’s more likely than not (not beyond a reasonable doubt) that Martin is the reason the murder victims aren’t alive. The foreshadowing type statements by the victims before their deaths are admitted. The prosecution submitted the statements under the “forfeiture by wrongdoing” hearsay exception, arguing the defendant caused these witnesses to be unavailable. Lt. Smith is testifying for a hearing in front of the judge (no jury). Smith says the shell casing found in the victims’ home matched the gun seized from the defendant’s house. There was also a military dog tag of the defendant’s found in the victim’s foyer. Assistant AG Barbara Whaley gives opening statements for State. Public defender Tom Griffiths gave opening statements for defense. State witness: Diana Phillips, sister of Calvin Phillips (she found the dog tag & shell casing). Trial continues on 6/4/21.
