The Avery Trial: Episode 24 - Evidence Compromised?

🌟💰 Tip Jar: https://ko-fi.com/beachhouse34

In this episode, we continue with John Ertl's testimony as the defense continues to question him. We learn about the handling of the contents of the burn pit outside of Avery's residence, the garaage, and whether or not the evidence was collected and documented properly.

Ertl talks about how the contents of the burn pit was collected and sifted. Not only that, faint luminol reactions in the garage that turned out to be...not blood.

Bottom line is, the crime lab team wasn't allowed to process the scene the way they were trained to do because others stepped in.
