It's Day 7 of trial in Vanessa Bryant and Chris Chester's lawsuits against LA County. Judge Walter said at the end of yesterday that we should be getting to the "client witnesses" today. Three @LACOFD officials are to testify first - Sky Cornell, Arlin Kahan and William McCloud. Image
^^^Cornell is pictured above on the far right, next to Kahan. The lawyer talking is Jason Tokoro of @MillerBarondess. On the left is Deputy @LACOFD Chief Dennis Breshears, who's been at the defense table the entire trial.
The first of the "client witnesses" on the Aug. 5 joint witness list is Paul Westhead Jr., who appears to be the son of former @Lakers (and @OregonWBB #GoDucks) coach Paul Westhead. He'll be testifying for Chris Chester. Image

As a reporter, it was quite a thrill to see a police official get picked apart in court by a skilled lawyer for putting out a BS press release, down to his misuse of the word alleged. My story on the devastating direct exam of @LASDHQ Chief Jorge Valdez: bit.ly/3A44Ymv
The audio of Chief Valdez and Sheriff Villanueva lying when asked about the citizen’s complaint regarding the photos is at the bottom of this great @latimes article. It’s been played many times in trial already and likely will be played many times more. lat.ms/3dvH4bP
I don’t have a copy of the ensuing emails between Valdez and the reporter that were shown to Valdez yesterday, but Valdez writes that because of “insensitive intention” to publish, @LASDHQ was having to contact the families of each victim to tell them about “your allegations.”
