Hey everyone, I'm Ashley Bannfield and this is Drop Dead serious. It's day 29 of Karen

Reed's second-degree murder trial and today the defense was back in the driver's seat. We heard from a crash expert, a private investigator, and a forensic pathologist whose testimony

sparked fierce debate, countless objections, and even a motion for mistrial. Let's rewind back to the

beginning of the day. The morning started with more redirect from the defense crash expert,

Daniel Wolfe, the ARCA engineer who conducted crash tests

using a mannequin named Rescue Randy. That was to simulate the conditions around John O'Keefe's

death. Photos of the tests were shown in court, including images of the dummy's injuries and

damage to its clothing. Wolf used those pictures to walk the jury through

how kinetic energy works in accident reconstruction, even joking with the defense

Prosecutor Brennan came at Wolf hard, questioning whether Rescue Randy was a legitimate crash test dummy at all. The prosecutor

insisted it was really just a training mannequin used by firefighters, but Wolf disagreed.

Things escalated quickly from there. At one point, the prosecutor asked whether Wolf

had gotten any new information from the defense over the weekend,

trying to imply that his testimony had changed since Friday.

But Wolf denied that.

And then came a sidebar followed by redirect, and then more cross, and more objections.

And it was total chaos.

And by mid-morning, even the jury seemed kind of rattled.

One reporter in the courtroom noted that the jurors looked visibly frustrated by all of the back and forth. And finally, Wolf's testimony came to an end, but court was far from over. Next, the defense dropped a bombshell. They accused the prosecution of pulling a quote stunt in front of the jury.

Because during redirect, prosecutor Hank Brennan displayed John O'Keefe's sweatshirt with holes in the

back during Wolf's testimony without making it clear to the jury that those holes were made
