Exhumation Evidence Shapes Murder Trial In Tip Case
The corpse of young Tips was exhumed to reveal an autopsy showing a bullet entered the left temple and travelled upward to the brain base, contradicting a defense earlier claim. Dr. J Merrey testified the wound indicates a shooter opposite the victim, not behind. James Tips testified with details of the New Year’s Eve car trip and nearby torpedoes, aligning with prior statements by Charles and Cecil Tips. The district attorney called the findings highly important as the trial of John Steen continues.
