Investigator David Franklin

So based on this photo, you can tell he's actually leaving the location at the bottom.

Do you recall where Mr. Chin's phone goes from this location? This is the same Walmart that he was at earlier in the day? Yes, ma'am. That's nearby, is that correct?

And do you recall if there's anything significant about Mr. Chin's phone being back at the Walmart again?

So when you say reappears, what do you mean?

And at some point, a while later, we see Mr. Chen back at Tremont?

In your review of the evidence, were you able to see this video? Yes.

Would you agree that that person appears to be leaving a building?

All right. And now we go back to phone records. Did Mr. Chen's phone indicate that he was leaving the Tremont Apartments around this time? Around the exact same time that he is seen leaving the Tremont Apartment building. Is that correct? Do you recall where he went? To 999 Creek. And is there other evidence that you've reviewed that would corroborate his travel to 900 Mountain Creek Road?

Okay, is this video taken from the Mountain Creek Road apartment buildings?

Does that appear to be a white SUV?

At this point in time, is Mr. Chen's cell phone location data showing that he is in or around 900 Mountain Creek Road? Yes, ma'am. And then have you also seen the next part of this video that shows what looks like or has been testified to a Prius pulling into this parking lot?

Would you agree that that's basically a day and a half?

My message is when the state uses them are statements from a party opponent, a well-recognized hearsay exception. Mr. Wise cannot use Mr. Chin's statement in court because it's not a party opponent. So that's slightly different. I cannot agree to open the door. However, Your Honor.

If we can agree to eliminate the irrelevant text messages, and there's not many of them, but irrelevant text messages regarding sexual activity, and I'm only noting four or five of them, then we'll agree to the text messages coming in. I do not believe that the text messages about sexual activity are relevant to Mr. Weiss's case or the homicide of deafness.

Your Honor, I have been noted. Your Honor, hold on to this. I'll point it out for you, page by page.

No, he intends to tell the jury, holding argument, to go back and read all the messages. That they will be in evidence and we object to them. I will go through here with Mr. Hamilton.

You were the investigator in November of 2022 who was investigating this case, is that correct?

Were you present when Katrina B. scrolled up in her text messages to show you that location drop?

And was that done?

And what time was the location shared from Jasmine's phone?

Yes, sir. Thanks.

The only examinable fingerprints found on the Toyota were from Investigator Crawford.

And then the two prints of quality to examine from that garbage bag around the body of Jasmine Pace were made by who?

And let's start with Miss Pace's phone on 11-22-2022. This is exhibit number one. Have you seen this exhibit before?

What does this show, to your knowledge?

When reviewing the records to determine the location of Ms. Pace's phone on the 22nd, were you able to find evidence that corroborates this trip?

Okay, so we're still going chronologically, okay, Mr. Hamilton? So after this, at some point in the morning hours of 11.23, did Mr. Chin's phone travel to the Walmart? Yes. From your memory... Was that travel around 10.40 in the morning?

Now, did Ms. Pace's cell phone travel from Tremont to Walmart as well? It did.

Are you aware of any activity that you found on both of their cellular records around this time?

And who was that text message from and who was it to?

Approximately 3.50 something that both of their phones showed back up in downtown Chattanooga, correct?

Are you able to tell the jury... If Ms. Pacey's phone had been on immediately before that, or is this the first time you see it back on?

Okay.

Is it fair to say hers was coming off and on?

For the first part of the day on 11-23? Yes, it was.
