Jeffrey Wogenstahl’s evidentiary hearing continued on Thursday, October 17, 2024.
A forensic pathologist stated that in his opinion two people were involved in the murder of Amber Garrett. His statement contradicts the state’s theory that Jeff committed the murder and disposed of the body alone.
A former attorney of Jeff’s testified that when she was assigned Jeff’s case in 2013, Harrison Police records were not included in his file. This echoes yesterday’s testimony by Jeff’s trial lawyer that significant police notes were not passed on to him by the state.
One of the jurors at Jeff’s trial testified that her decision to convict might have been different if she had been given more accurate information during the trial. (You can read about how some of Jeff’s jurors reacted to discovering they were given incomplete, misleading information at the trial.)
The hearing continues.
