Investigator still on the stand

Lisa Dubs is ripping into the prosecution's theory that Emily Anderson died Dec. 29, 2005, at her husband's hands. One way she is doing that is by questioning the sheriff's office's investigation into Emily's disappearance. The sheriff's office originally thought Emily left voluntarily. Dubs asked Bennett why he or another investigator didn't check Sams Club when Jerry said she was supposed to go there that day? Bennett said no reason. She asked him why he didn't check Sawmills Hardware the immediate days following Emily's disappearance. He said no reason. Bennett did say foul play had not been ruled out, but at the time, they didn't think anything bad had happened. She asked Bennett why he didn't go to the bank even though Jerry told him she might have a large amount of cash on her. He said that Jerry said she already had about $2,000 on her. She asked if he interviewed Oscar, who Jerry said he was with at the dairy all day when Emily went missing. Bennett said no.
Literally, the afternoon has gone on like that.
But I believe Bennett has stood his ground. His answers are consistent. He testified from his notes, but he admitted notes weren't taken at every interview or discussion about Emily Anderson. The jurors themselves are taking notes as the testimony continues. As well, several folks from Sawmills here to support Jerry also have taken notes from day one. So has Emily's friends and family. I notice that Dubs and Campbell write everything down when Bellas or Tutterow ask witnesses questions, but only every so often Bellas or Tutterow will write something down - maybe followup questions - when one of their witnesses is being cross examined. Dubs and Campbell also talk back and forth when they are waiting their turn to ask questions. Every now and then Bellas will whisper something to Maj. Stafford. For the most part, they are quiet. It's neat to watch both sides. They are different.
