Trial continues as Judge weighs Crawford ruling impact
U S District Judge James P Jones in Virginia presides without a jury as prosecutors and defense outline excerpts from old trials. Testimony from Church, Samuel Ealy, and Arlen Breeden is read, with jurors told Breeden was not cross examined at the state trial. Alexander testifies about pressure to lie and Church’s claims of involvement, while cross examination focuses on his criminal history and dyslexia as he recounts the Davis-Hopewell murders.
