Day Two: Officer Dominick Nitti takes stand

Prosecution has called UPD Officer Dominick Nitti to the stand. Nitti says he has been an officer for 14 years, working both in the Crime Scene Unit and as a Patrolman.

A testimony is given as to his training, background, and certification, and his expertise in firearms - he also teaches firearm training to recruits.

Prosecution establishes that Nitti was not working on April 12, 2007 when he received a call from Officer LaBella who told Nitti that Lindsey had been shot.

Nitti describes the scene when he got to the Neilson Street scene and that Officer Lindsey was not there at that time. Nitti describes the scene as taped off with police tape, blocks closed off, and the spotlight and emergency lights still turned on atop Lindsey's patrol car.

Nitti describes the night as rainy, and that he noticed the leftover medical supplies left by EMTs who already testified they had left in such a hurry that they left materials behind. Nitti also says he observed a pool of blood and brain matter.

Nitti was then called to John Street where the Red Doge Neon that Lindsey had pulled over was stopped. After securing the scene, Nitti says the car was then taken into evidence.

Nitti is then shown an aerial photo of Nielson Street and asked for the positions of Lindsey's vehicle on Neilson that night based on his observations when he arrived at the scene, along with being asked to point out Eagle and Mortimer Streets.
