A court ruled that a video statement can be played and broadcast in an ongoing murder case, with one section near its end redacted. The video reportedly contains second-hand statements from the accused and references text messages the accused is believed to have sent. Authorities have previously released other texts in which the accused allegedly confessed to the killing.
Evidence arguments continue The ruling came after a recess that was scheduled for 20 minutes but extended to one hour. Lawyers on both sides are still disputing what evidence should be admitted. The video statement is expected to be presented as proceedings resume.
