It was a bit tedious hearing descriptions of photos that were seen in court, but we did not see.

Now similarly with a walk thru video (filmed 1-9-2007) description... not shown in the feed.

I do have the walk thru from previous trials (probably the same since Chipman St House has been demolished since)

16 witnesses take stand in Day 1 of Vanessa Coleman retrial.
6:08 PM, Nov 13, 2012

It has no doubt been an emotional day in court here for the parents of Channon Christian and Chris Newsom. They are living through their children's murders again for the sixth time in five years with Vanessa Coleman's retrial.

Deputies escorted Coleman in to court just after 9 a.m. Tuesday. She didn't look at the Christian and Newsom families, who were supported by a dozen or so family and friends. Coleman also didn't look at her parents seated right behind her. Coleman's attorney, Ted Lavit, entered her plea of "not guilty on all counts."

Potential witness in Coleman case faces charges
Posted: Nov 14, 2012 12:20 PM



KNOXVILLE (WATE) - One of the potential witnesses in the trial against Vanessa Coleman, one of four defendants charged in the Christian-Newsom case, is facing new charges.

Daphne Sutton has been accused of evading arrest.

Sutton is defendant LeMaricus Davidson's former girlfriend.

Officers attempted to serve a warrant to Sutton on Oct. 31. When they came to the front door, she allegedly ran.

The warrant stems from a shoplifting charge from 2011.

Christian and Newsom families react to day one of Coleman trial

KNOXVILLE (WATE) - Day one of the Vanessa Coleman retrial was a long, and at times, emotional day, with 14 different witness testimonies and two very different cases laid out by the state and defense in their opening arguments.
...snip...

The state painted a detailed picture of what they maintain happened to Channon Christian and her boyfriend, Chris Newsom, in January 2007.

"Channon Christian was found hog tied, raped, stuffed inside of five trash bags with a trash bag tied around her mouth and nose, eyes open, stuffed inside of the trash can," said Knox County Assistant District Attorney Takisha Fitzgerald in her opening statement.

But the defense gave a different story, painting Vanessa Coleman as a victim who tried to escape, and who had no role at all.

"There will be no evidence that she witnessed it. There will be no evidence that she participated in it. There will be no evidence that she sanctioned it, aided it, abetted it or provided any kind of substantial assistance," said defense attorney Theodore Lavit.

For the Christian and Newsom families, the defense's argument was tough to stomach.

"It's a joke," Channon's father, Gary Christian, said. "She was no victim. It's all I can do to keep from getting up and leaving. (Coleman) had ability to get up and walk away."

Mary Newsom, mother of Channon's murdered boyfriend Chris Newsom, said it's difficult to hear the details all over again.

"It's sad that the witnesses have to get up there and tell the truth, under oath and tell the truth, and the defense team can get up there and say whatever they want to say, and make up stuff," Newsom said. "That just doesn't seem fair. That just doesn't seem right."

Vanessa Coleman retrial Day 1 - Recap

Coleman retrial offers up new defense twists
Defendant 'hostage' too, lawyer says
By Jamie Satterfield
Posted November 14, 2012 at 4 a.m.

Day one in the retrial of torture slaying suspect Vanessa Coleman made one thing clear — this is no carbon copy of her first trial.

Nearly scrubbed from the proof presented so far is evidence of the horrific crimes committed against Christopher Newsom, 23, in the January 2007 double slaying of Newsom and girlfriend, Channon Christian, 21.

For instance, jurors heard evidence Newsom's body was doused in gasoline and set afire but saw no photographs of his charred body. They saw strips of cloth and a dog leash used to bind him as he was led to his death but were not told of how he was raped, possibly with an object, and led barefoot to a set of railroad tracks in East Knoxville where he was shot execution-style.
