Next to the stand was the forensic pathologist who performed the autopsy on the victim. Dr. Robert Schott went into graphic detail for jurors.
S1, EP10 "A Bloody Crime Scene"
Thirty stab wounds in her neck was what the forensic pathologist confirmed about the attack on Brenda Powell. Dr. Robert Schott did the autopsy in this case and described for the jury how she died. Jurors saw the crime scene photos, as part of the state's case. When police arrived at the scene where Brenda was stabbed, they say they found Sydney in the driveway with her eyes rolled back and clawing at the asphalt. Her defense claimed she in a catatonic state not responding to audio stimuli.
S1, EP11 "Iron Skillet And Steak Knife"
According to police officers on the scene, the defendant told them that an intruder had broken in and that her mom was bleeding. But investigators later found out that that claim wasn't exactly true. On the stand was an investigator who worked the gory scene at the Powell family home. He presented the jury with a number of bloody crime scene photos. The State claimed Sydney confronted and cornered her mother in her bedroom and fatally attacked her with an iron skillet and a kitchen knife.
