Megan Boswell trial: Day 2 begins
The second day of Megan Boswell’s murder trial began with Judge Jim Goodwin’s answer to a dispute that sent the jury to their hotel early Tuesday afternoon. Court resumed at 8:30 a.m. This morning with Goodwin’s decision to play portions of a police interview referenced by a witness Wednesday that led to a request by Boswell’s defense attorney Gene Scott to cross examine the witness and to have the interview played in the courtroom. Megan Boswell faces 19 charges, including one count of first-degree murder and two counts of felony murder, in the death of her infant daughter Evelyn Boswell’s death. Opening statements were Wednesday, and the first witness called but that legal dispute ended court early. Goodwin told both legal teams Thursday that he had decided to play portions of the interview for the jury and would allow Scott to cross-examine the witness.
