Jason Warren's juvenile record where he admitted to stabbing and assault put on record, defense traffic collision expert testifies

This morning the People read into record exhibits that will be admitted into evidence this morning about Jason Warren's juvenile record in 2001 where he admitted to attempted murder of a taxi cab driver, Cid Miller, and another admission of assault on a man, Fred Her, riding a bicycle. Both men testified for the  People earlier in the trial.

Judge Timothy Cissna said that "this evidence maybe used solely as to the issue of whether Jason Warren committed acts of stabbing" to Cid Miller on April 10, 2001 and whether he hit Fred Her or his bicycle on April 10, 2001. It cannot be used for any other purpose. There will be a specific closing jury instruction explaining the limited purpose for this evidence.

The defense's first witness was Steven Walker, a self employed traffic collision reconstruction specialist, who has been on the stand for an hour.
