100 CENTRE STREET, Nov 15 – In the Daniel Penny trial on November 15, Medical Examiner Harris testified after being called as an expert witness by the prosecution. Inner City Press was there, thread.
Harris was intended to address the police officer testimony that Jordan Neely still had a pulse when they arrived. She said that the brain dies first.
She was also asked about, and confirmed, K2 and sickle cell disease, showing an autopsy photo of speckled liver.
The day began with the defense reading from a police report:
Judge: Jurors, the defense is going to offer an exhibit about the NYPD questioning a witness, Mr. Clay. The defense will enter a portion of the police report. Penny's lawyer Steve Raiser: May I explain to the jury? Judge: Yes. [redacted NYPD report]
Penny's lawyer Raiser: Mr. Clay said, I wondered, what does this guy have on him? What does he have in his pocket? Judge: OK. Witness entering!
