1 A. Absolutely. It would dissolve or dilute the fingerprints.

4 having been previously duly sworn to speak the truth, the whole
5 truth and nothing but the truth, then testified as follows:
6 REDIRECT EXAMINATION
7 BY MR. FOGLEMAN:
8 Q. I failed to ask you a question. When you were here in West
9 Memphis participating in the execution of the search warrants,
10 did you go in the trailer of Jason Baldwin?
11 A. Yes.
12 Q. Describe for the jury the defendant's room, what you
13 observed there?
14 MR. STIDHAM: Your Honor, we object. May we
15 approach the bench?
16 (THE FOLLOWING CONFERENCE WAS HELD AT THE BENCH
17 OUT OF THE HEARING OF THE JURY)
18 MR. STIDHAM: What relevance could that possibly
19 have?
20 THE COURT: I don't know.
21 MR. FOGLEMAN: Your Honor, it goes to that cult
22 stuff. He had all kinds of paintings on the wall.
23 Things of skulls and daggers and --
24 THE COURT: In thinking about the cult stuff I
25 might have restricted the State too much because they
1528

1 can prove motivation, and all of those things go to
2 motivation. And all the facts and circumstances of
3 the other event might have been admissible to
4 establish motive and to the extent that -- what detail
5 are you going to go in letting her describe this?
6 MR. DAVIS: She described there were paintings
7 and pictures in the room of dragons and it gave her a
8 very uneasy feeling about the entire way -- the room
9 was full of pictures and magazines she interpreted to
10 be satanic type.
11 MR. CROW: Judge --
12 MR. FOGLEMAN: She's not going to make an
13 interpretation.
14 MR. CROW: Okay.
15 MR. STIDHAM: It may be relevant against Jason,
16 but it is certainly not relevant against Mr.
17 Misskelley.
18 MR. CROW: We object to, for one thing, showing
19 anything about Mr. Misskelley going to some kind of
20 cult activity.
21 THE COURT: The cult activities in my opinion are
22 admissible going to possible motivation, intent.
23 MR. CROW: Nothing in the statement says anything
24 about --
25 MR. STIDHAM: No relevancy.
1529

1 THE COURT: If it is Jessie Misskelley's
2 apartment, I'm going to let her describe it. If it is
3 the other two boys, let's let it go.
