Lets see:
1. Vn_survivor_67-68, I do not blame the Durham cops in this case. There behavior indicates they took her claim seriously, transported her to the appropriate medical care, but pretty quickly doubted her story. I would guess like with the photo array, Nifong directed what the police would do with the cell phone.
2. darbymcgill, Certainly she missed it pretty soon after dropping it but not immediately. I think that indicates her state and what we would expect her to be able to remember.
3. Ken H, the cell phone was the big argument of the first setting last week for one of the indicted. Nifong claimed he did not have it, then admitted the police did, but claimed they had not looked at it yet. The defense of course demanded access to it.
(at least I don't think he has, else he would have the photos)
