Defense attorney Blasier objected at sidebar that a slide used the term ‘Bundy trail’ three times; Blasier cited a prior ruling that the term was improper in connection with the samples. Clark appeared unaware of the ruling. Judge Ito acknowledged the prior ruling but noted the slide had already been displayed long enough that little could be done immediately; Cochran suggested modification at the break, and Ito said he would ask for relettering if possible.
# 1 (The following proceedings were held at the bench:) # 2 THE COURT: All right. We're over at the sidebar. Mr. Blasier, you had an objection?
# 3 MR. BLASIER: Yes. I thought we had objected and agreed that that term "Bundy trail" could not be used.
KEY QUOTE # 4 THE COURT: The slide has "Bundy trail" on it?
# 5 MR. BLASIER: Yes. Three times.
# 6 MS. CLARK: What's wrong with "Bundy trail"?
# 7 MR. BLASIER: The Judge ruled it was not a proper term to use in connection with these samples.
# 10 THE COURT: Walkway as opposed to--Bundy walk on these things. How many more of these films do you have?
# 11 MR. HARMON: If I can check--I think that's the last one. So if you want--
# 12 THE COURT: All right.
# 13 MR. HARMON: I don't know how we fix this one.
# 14 THE COURT: All right. Well, unfortunately, it's been up there for quite awhile now. So at this time, I don't know that there's much more we can do about it.
KEY QUOTE # 15 MR. COCHRAN: Perhaps it should be modified at the break.
# 16 THE COURT: Yes. I'll ask them--I don't know. I'll ask them to reletter that if possible. Thank you.
