Sammy Rivera has now taken the stand. Rivera is considered to be the prosecution's "star witness" and the only one who has seen Officer Lindsey get shot. He looks EXTREMELY different from his mugshot photo, when he had been up for days straight, with long, wirey hair. Today, he has a shaved head and clean-shaven face as he takes the stand.
Rivera was born in Puerto Rico, then New Jersey, and then to Utica, New York in March 2003 to move in with his uncle and aunt who already lived here. He is 31 years old today.
The judge has ordered still photographers to stop taking photos as it is making too much noise.
Rivera says Naomi Diaz has been his girlfriend for 2 1/2 years and moved in together last November 2005, at 1676 Seymour Ave. Rivera says that although Diaz's children are not his biologically, he considers them his.
Rivera says that in April 2007, he lived with Diaz, and that no one was living with them at the time.
