Pathologist tests defense claim in Kimisha Miller case
A Minnesota forensic pathologist testifying for the defense could not determine if 3 month old Kimisha Miller's death was a homicide while agreeing with findings of blunt force head injuries and brain damage. She suggested retinal hemorrhaging may have occurred in hospital and that a skull fracture might not be fresh. The trial of Curtis Miller continues in Linn County Iowa.
