TRIAL

▲ Day 6 of 6

◀ Redirect examination of Dr. Golden Defense motion to dismiss ▶

Date: Friday, July 8, 1994 • Lines: 15

The court admitted People's Exhibits 1 through 33 except 4 and 5, after which the prosecution rested its case. The prosecution declined a defense-proposed stipulation, and the court then admitted Defense Exhibits A, B, C, D, and F without objection while noting that E, G, and H had not been allowed.

# 1 MS. CLARK:

At this time, Your Honor, the people would ask that all of the exhibits marked, with the exception of the originally marked 4 and 5, be admitted into evidence.

# 2 THE COURT:

All right. That would be exhibits number 1 through 33, with the exception of People's 4 and 5. Mr. Shapiro, do you have any objection to the receipt of those exhibits?

# 3 MR. UELMEN:

No objections.

# 4 THE COURT:

Thank you, Mr. Uelmen. People's 1 through 33, with the exception of 4 and 5, are received in evidence at this time.

# 5 MS. CLARK:

Thank you, Your Honor. The people rest.

KEY QUOTE

# 6 THE COURT:

Will there be any affirmative defense or other evidence offered by the defense?

# 7 MR. SHAPIRO:

Your Honor, we did proffer a stipulation in chambers. I don't know if the people are willing to accept that stipulation?

# 8 MS. CLARK:

There is no evidence to support the stipulation proffered. There will be no stipulation.

KEY QUOTE

# 9 THE COURT:

All right. Did you wish to offer any of your exhibits that had been offered in connection with the motion to suppress?

# 10 MR. SHAPIRO:

Yes, we do, Your Honor, all exhibits.

# 11 THE COURT:

All right. That would be Defense 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D'. The court did not allow 'E', 'G', or 'H'. So are you seeking to offer only 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D' and 'F' at this time?

# 12 MR. SHAPIRO:

Yes, Your Honor.

# 13 THE COURT:

Any objection?

# 14 MS. CLARK:

No objection.

# 15 THE COURT:

Those items are received from the defense. Do you have any motions at this time?
