Day Three: Elana Foster takes the stand, expert in gunshot residue testing

Elana Foster is called to the stand. She is employed by the RJ Lee Group in Pennsylvania, which specializes in anaylitcal testing, gunshot residue, DNA testing, etc. She refers to it as specialty lab that looks for traces of substances in other things.

Foster works in the forensics department as a manager. Her responsibilites include testing, reporting, and making sure samples are secure. Before that she worked for SONY Electronics, doing lab technician work. She says she has testified before in other cases.

She says gunshot residue is something they handle quite a lot at RJ Lee Group, and that she has been an "expert witness" in 24 trials in 11 different states.

She talks slightly too fast for the translator and is asked to slow down as she explains what gunshot residue is.
