Defense rests as Skakel trial witness estimates time of death
Defense in the Michael Skakel case rests after a medical expert pegged Martha Moxley’s time of death at about 10 p.m. on October 30, 1975, aligning with Skakel’s alibi though the estimate may shift by an hour. The same day's proceedings also cover a separate fraud sentence for James Jackson, who stole identities of top executives to buy diamonds and watches, with restitution ordered at over $376,000.
