This may be upsetting to some

Emily Anderson's body was discovered laying face down in the toolbox. Lt. Tracy Pyle is on the stand as the trial continues this morning. Right before our break he was showing photos of Emily Anderson as she was found that Jan. 7, 2006, afternoon. She was wearing blue jeans and a dark-colored sweatshirt. She had blood around her face and nose area. There was dirt along her hands, Pyle testified. Investigators collected dirt and grass from the bottom of the toolbox. Blood in the toolbox and blood on a mat that lied in the bed of the pickup also were collected. Emily's face was bloody and bruised. Family and friends were in tears. It is heartbreaking and painful to see - for anyone.
Pyle also testified that there was no smell around the truck - both in South Carolina and after the vehicle was brought back to Lenoir. He said no flies collected around truck. Pyle, who was new to the case that day, said he thought Emily Anderson voluntarily went away. He was not expecting to find her body. He said, "I was taken a back."
I think anyone that knew Emily was. It is a quiet, very quiet courtroom as Pyle continues to discuss the discovery and investigation of Emily Anderson's dead body.
