O'Keefe's hospital-recovered jeans, item 7-1, photographed with five red-brown stains, dirt, debris, EMT cuts and grass staining on the left rear.
About
Prosecution characterized the left-rear grass staining as consistent with O'Keefe having fallen on a lawn with little snow coverage, supporting the theory he was struck at 34 Fairview Road. Defense attorney Jackson argued the staining pattern was also consistent with drag marks, and noted no forensic testing was ever conducted to determine the stains' composition.
