January 24, 2008 Silence falls as Jensen crime scene video playsPosted: 10:26 AM ET
ELKHORN, Wisconsin – We have just seen the crime scene video in the case of Wisconsin v Mark Jensen. It was taken at the home of Mark and Julie Jensen on December 3, 1998 - hours after police were told Julie Jensen had died. The video shows Julie laying in bed with her face into her pillow. It is sad, it is stirring, it is important evidence. As the lights were dimmed, the jury watched with the intensity they have had from the beginning. Video recap Prosecutor Robert Jambois alerted Julie’s four brothers of what was going to be on the big projection screen. Only one brother remained in the courtroom, he bowed his head when Julie’s body appeared. The defendant stared intently at the screen as police video showed close-ups of Julie’s face and body as the sheets were pulled back. When the video ended there was a stilling silence in that courtroom … hollowness as the reality of this death became front and center in the courtroom. – Jean Casarez, In Session correspondent Filed under: Trials |
