In Oakland a judge granted a hearing on officer Joan Honebein's testimony about seeing a suspect near the Sept. slaying of Cay-Le Riley, a 13 year old found Sept. 25 by a creek. The defense sought to exclude identification from a mug shot and photo. The trial proceeds with mixed testimony as jurors hear from an elderly witness and others over six days.
