Typos are almost certainly present in this as it is being updated in real time. Our apologies.
2:32 -- TPD investigator Jarritt Federico direct examination: Miss Geohegan did express reluctance to file charges, but that is quite normal ... no security cameras were available ... no employees in surrounding businesses ... says photo used in the lineup he conducted was his license photo, a photo she could not have seen previously ... Officer says Dalvin Cook told him that he did not remember getting into an argument or fight with anyone on the night in question, and that if he was drinking, it wasn't to the point of intoxication ... Cook asked what night he was being accused of hitting a woman and then denied doing so, saying "nah, nah" ... investigator says Cook said only person he was with night of incident was Travis Rudolph ...
2:28 -- Redirect of Officer Smidt: Suggesting that if Cook was being help back by teammates, the force of his punch could have been reduced, the state asks the officer if that was plausible (agrees).
2:20 -- Cross of Officer Smidt: Clarifies that Lubeski's words and written speech were incoherent ... defense challenges the method of using the roster for ID and not saying anything about looking up a roster in his incident report ... brings up inconsistency in the number of players allegedly attacking the accuser, from 5-7 to a "group" to then just one (Cook) ... Witness who was allegedly hit in the head never mentioned it or any head pain ... defense confirms only two people who can claim to have seen Cook hit Geohegan are the accuser and Lubeski, who was extremely drunk ... "to me, no, it did not look like she got hit with a fist in the face," he said, responding to whether the injury looked consistent with being punched in the face
2:11 -- Officer Smidt: Arrived at 2:24, both females were upset, both accuser and friend (Keara Lubeski) were inoxicated, Lubeski "extremely" so. ... Defense objects to characterization of Geohegan's statement writing as "neat, concise," state says it is used to contrast level of intoxication, as Lubeski's is messy and incoherent ... when they realized person who hit her may be on the team, officer pulled up roster with photos, and only one they could recognize was Travis Rudolph, but made it clear Rudolph was only present, he did not hit her ...
2:08 -- Sergeant Varbol, off duty police officer working security at Clydes, cross examination:Defense establishes that Varbol never made a written record of what he saw and no act of violence was observed.
2:02 -- Sergeant Varbol, off duty police officer working security at Clydes: Saw group of males and females outside Clydes, did not see arguing shortly after 2am ... Did not see any others on the sidewalk ... did not see a punch, accuser with bloody lip told him that she was hit ... no need to call for ambulance and no suspect in the area to pursue so he calls the patrol duty to come
1:53 -- Accuser's friend (Keara Lubeski, 19yo) cross-examined:Defense raising point that other players must have been inside the bar because witness saw Noonie Murray earlier ... witness does not agree that being drunk causes a person to not see things as they actually occur. ... Q "So you don't remember the argument but you remember standing behind Rudolph?" A "Yes" Q"So despite the fact that Rudolph is much bigger than you and you were so drunk that you can't remember the argument, you can say with absolute certainty that you saw the punch" ... "And you do not have a written report of what happened two months ago because you were too drunk to write it, correct?" ... "So it is up to the court to determine what you can actually remember" ... (Defense brings up other inconsistencies from her verbal statement that night) ... Witness says "just because I had a couple drinks doesn't mean I didn't know what was happening"
1:35 -- Accuser's friend (Keara Lubeski, 19yo) takes the stand for direct testimony: Immediately saw Rudolph and Nyquan Murray "Noonie" at Clydes bar. ... Cannot recall how many drinks she had, admits she was drunk ... Says players kept bothering her and accuser, cannot remember exactly how they wouldn't leave her alone ... remembers accuser was arguing with Da'Vante Phillips (she thinks this is Cook's brother, apparently), saying "just because you're football players doesn't mean your'e big" ... "everything hit the fan and can't remember what was said during the ensuing argument" ... she was standing behind Cook and saw him hit the accuser, says she jumped in and tried to get everyone to chill out but was struck in the temple by a punch that was intended for the accuser, she does not know if Cook landed more punched ... She "went blank" after she saw the accuser was hit and her head was hurting, she and the accuser fell back against a truck on the street ... After the accuser called the police, the players ran away ... Used instagram to find photos of Travis Rudolph's friends and picked out Cook that way ...
1:20 -- State brings up precedent to admit Dalvin Cook's statement to police, and the defense is arguing against, citing lack of relevancy. Audio will not be allowed in, but the state can ask officer what was said.
Lauryn Vickers of the FSView is now helping with the reporting as well from 11:30-330
12:00 -- Lunch break, no more questions for accuser.
11:55 -- State redirect of Madison Geohegan: Can't recall everything but remembers who hit her ... felt many emotions ... does not know how many punches were thrown ... grew up in FSU household and doesn't follow football at all ...
11:35 -- Cross examination of Madison Geohegan: Defense team attacks inconsistencies between accuser's 911 call and her current testimony, making an issue of how much she had to drink and attempting to introduce reasonable doubt and lessen her credibility in the eyes of the jury ... state's objection to defense's "confusing" line of testimony is overruled ... "You're saying you were hit multiple times by a 215-pound football player and the only damage you had was to your lip?" "Yes" ... Asked if football player boyfriend T.J. Davis, of Auburn, with whom she was on the phone at time of looking at some photos with police had any help in ID'ing cook and says no ... Lots of questions raising issues about the photo lineup Madison Geohegan was shown and whether outside influence may have assisted her too much in ID'ing Cook" ... Defense says "Let me get this straight, Dalvin Cook came after you and hit you multiple times and you were able to say 'hit me again'?" "Yes" ... Issues raised about the motivation and timing of pressing charges.
11:03 -- More testimony from Madison Geohegan: Wanted to tell her story right then as opposed to getting medical attention, didn't want to go to the hospital, was tired. ... Was crying during 911 call due to embarrassment of having been hit ... cop took picture of "busted lip" (shown to jury) ... Accuser tears up when asked to identify herself in pictures ... given box of tissues and jury leaves room momentarily and returns ... Photos show visible split lip and blood from lip on chin/shirt ... accuser's knee dirty ... doesn't remember exactly how her knee became dirty ... no other visible injuries or bruising from photos ... lip hurt bad for several days ... was embarrassed about how her lip looked ... "wasn't herself" when looking through photo lineup on website, says photos were 1X1 each, identified only Travis Rudolph ... didn't want to press charges ... ID'd Cook after being at Mint Nightclub/lounge three days later, was not drinking ... "Cook smirked like he was invincible, like he was untouched" ... She then picked him out of a photo from Travis Rudolph's instagram, and showed it to her dad, who knew it was Dalvin Cook ...
10:37 -- 911 Call to be played for the court.
