Burgess's May 8 supplemental replaced call-log offsets with three-point-turn synchronization, producing nine offset values and the first scenarios placing phone lock before ignition.
About
The most contested single document in the digital forensics phase of Trial 2. Defense sought its exclusion via a Rule 14 motion, arguing it was created specifically to counter defense expert DiSogra's analysis. Burgess acknowledged submitting a mid-trial supplemental was unprecedented in his career; Alessi used it to show Aperture amended its methodology at prosecution direction after defense expert analysis threatened the existing timeline.
A supplemental report authored by Aperture's Shanon Burgess dated May 8, 2025, submitted mid-trial and received by the defense May 11. The report abandoned the prior call-log variance methodology in favor of a three-point turn synchronization approach, yielding a range of nine offset values and creating the first scenarios under which the phone lock event could precede the vehicle ignition event.
