Court Hearing Details on Carbondale Knife Evidence
In a Tuesday session, Thomas Mansfield, Thompson's attorney, questioned Dee Cross about photographs of a blue gray box knife found near City Hall the night Clark died on November 22. Cross photographed but did not seize the rusted knife, deemed irrelevant by Wepsiec, while Mansfield criticized the decision as an error in judgment. Jurors viewed a slow-motion video shown earlier in the seven day trial, though neither defendant nor Clark appeared in the footage.
