The jury listens to testimony of more than a dozen witnesses on Morris Twp. Homicide judgment

Testimony Summary (Part 2):

An additional testimony was heard on Wednesday afternoon at Danielle Parks’s trial, a Clearfield county woman accused of conspiring to kill her ex -husband.

Another soldier of the state police took the position, after a lunch break and testified to review the data of Parks’s cell phones, his ex and his boyfriend, Bryan Michaelis.

According to the soldier, the data allegedly showed that Parks and Michaelis were close to each other, and the residence in question, around the time of the alleged shooting.

The jury also heard testimony about the search for Michaelis’s house after the alleged shooting.

His mother testified that, according to the reports, the house had surveillance cameras, but said that his son was the only one with access to them.

The State Police testified that when they registered the house, days after the shooting, the cameras had been removed.

The prosecution called an employee of a state university hotel at the stand.

The researchers claim that Danielle Parks fled to that hotel, after the shooting.

According to the hotel employee, Parks supposedly registered in a room, under a false name, and asked the staff not to let anyone know that she was there.

The employee testified that Parks claimed to be trying to escape an abusive relationship.

The prosecutors claim that Parks then left the hotel room, according to the reports, leaving behind clothing bags and the room in disorder.

According to the researchers, the hotel surveillance video showed both Parks and Michaelis at the hotel, along with one of Parks’s children.

The final witness of the day was an employee of the Clearfield county jail who testified the interactions he allegedly had with Michaelis.

The prison employee declared that while Michaelis was imprisoned, according to reports, he had multiple communications with Danielle.

According to the reports, the letters that Michaelis allegedly wrote, according to the testimony, were “in the code.”

The jail employee declared that she could decipher the code and learned that Michaelis had told Parks that “regretted” killing her ex.

The prosecutors said that in the letter, Michaelis referred to the ex -husband of Parks using a sexually explicit insult.

The Prosecutor’s Office then rested his case.

The defense is scheduled to present its case on Thursday.

TEMONIOS SUMMARY (PART 1):

The trial continued on Wednesday in the case against Danielle Parks, a woman from Clearfield county accused of conspiring to kill her ex -husband during an exchange of custody last year.

The jury heard the testimony of several witnesses, including a state police soldier who testified the alleged evidence found in the scene.

The photos of such evidence were shown to the jury, including photos of clothing and a blanket that the police allege that the parks and her boyfriend, Bryan Michaelis, burned in an alleged effort to “cover up” the shooting.

According to the reports, the Thompson soldier also testified that multiple caps were found in the property where the alleged shooting occurred.

The jury also heard a testimony about the alleged exchange of custody between Danielle Parks and her ex -husband, Kodey Parks.

According to the reports, the couple had agreed to alternate custody every two weeks, with the change of custody planned on Sundays.

According to a witness, who, according to the reports, acted as a “mediator” with the custody agreement, allegedly received multiple messages from Danielle Parks after the alleged shooting.

The jury was shown screenshots of these messages, which, according to the reports, included a text in which Danielle said she was “attacked” by her ex -husband.

After a brief break in the morning, the jury heard the testimony of a close friend of the couple who, according to the reports, also acted as “mediator” in the situation.

The witness said Danielle had once told her that she would kill her ex -husband and “would go out with his.”

Then, the jury heard the testimony of a forensic expert with the state police, the sergeant. Richard Podbielski.

He testified about the evidence that was sent to the PSP crime laboratory in Erie, including the weapon that was supposedly used in the shooting.

Sergeant Podbielski testified that shell bullets/housings found in the scene coincided with the weapon in question.

The jury also heard the afternoon testimony of two people who, according to the reports, were within the residence of the municipality of Morris around the time of the alleged shooting.

The first to take the stand was Danielle’s father, who testified that he could not remember much of what happened that night, since according to the reports he had been drinking during an alleged birthday party that was held at home that day.

He testified that what he could remember was Danielle stating that he had shot Kodey after, according to the reports, he attacked her.

The prosecutors said that Danielle’s father could not remember the age of his daughter or his birthday, and also declared that there were homemade surveillance cameras established in the residence, but that “they do not always work.”

The other individual who, according to the reports, was at home, at night in question, was a close friend of the family.

He also told the jury that he had been drinking in the aforementioned part, but that according to the reports, he remembered Kodey appearing in the house when Danielle was not there.

The family friend testified that when Danielle appeared later that night, according to the reports she seemed “agitated.”

He told the jury that he did not remember having heard any shot, nor remembered to have seen Danielle’s boyfriend in the house.

The testimony of the morning/early in the afternoon concluded with statements by a local official of the municipality of Morris and another soldier of the State Police, with regard to the alleged surveillance video after the shooting, as well as the testimony of a neighbor.

According to the testimony, the municipal building of the municipality of Morris, which is close to the property, supposedly captured a video of the sequelae of the shooting.

The neighbor testified that he heard three shots and, according to the reports, witnessed a white vehicle that fled the property with a woman behind the wheel.

The state police soldier testified that numerous video clips showed multiple vehicles “going and coming” from the property the night of the alleged shooting.

In one of the clips, the soldier testified that you can see a dark vehicle driving along the property line, where there is no road, and then leaving approximately an hour later.

According to the soldier, the white vehicle, according to the reports, leaves the same area shortly after.

The soldier also pointed out that the surveillance video, according to the reports, captured the video of the Burning well, where it is alleged that Parks and Michaelis tried to burn evidence of the shooting.

The testimony is expected to continue on Wednesday afternoon and until Thursday.
