Excerpt:
At 2:30 pm, the jury buzzes twice, indicating they have a question.
We happened to be alone in the courtroom with just the bailiff and clerk at the time.
The two of them got up to check it out. A few minutes later when they came back, we asked what was up and the clerk said the jury is requesting to rewatch a video from the case.
It will be shown at 9 in the morning, he said, and they will continue to deliberate in the meantime.
When we asked which video they were requesting, he said he wanted to talk to the attorneys first.
So we're still waiting to hear which segment the jury wants to see again.
Looking through our notes, there were three times that recorded interviews were played for the jury.
On Wednesday afternoon, May 10, with Detective Reyes (now Myape) on the stand, two video segments were played by the prosecution from Jane Doe 3's January 17, 2017 interview in Austin, Texas.
The first was about the hair-pulling November 2001 incident, which is the charged incident in this case.
The second segment was Jane Doe 3 talking about the December 2001 unconscious sodomy, which is not charged.
Also, the next morning, on May 11, with Detective Reyes still on the stand, the prosecution played a recording of her January 26, 2017 interview with Jane Doe 1 discussing her April 25, 2003 incident. But this was audio only, even though it was a DVD played on a video player.
We would assume if the jury asked to rewatch a "video," they are talking about one of the two segments from Jane Doe 3's interview in Austin.
