Both breasts were exposed, blood from right side of her head

Testimony started in the Bodhi Tree case today with the case shifting to the Arcata murders of Christina and Sunsine. Officer Jeremiah Kasinger was the first to testify. Christina's mom was in the audience. She has been very stoic and calm whenever she has been present.

Officer Kasinger said in the living room, both victims on the ground. He said when he saw "the female victim",  that "both breasts were exposed and blood was pouring from the right side of the head." The rest of her body was covered with a blanket.

The male victim, Officer Kasinger said had "shorts pulled to his ankles, boxers pulled down with his genital area hanging out."

Sunshine Marcet, the male victim was still alive when EMT first arrived. About five to 7 people were at the house, said Kasinger. Of those individuals, only  Emma Lee Loring, Carl Richard Moreno and Nicholas Allan Page gave physical descriptions of possible suspects to law enforcement. Kasinger said "Emma" was "extremely emotional, crying", very concerned about the victims;  Moreno was "calm but shocked at what had just happened" and Page who had been appyling pressure to Sunshine's chest was "upset but focused on assisting his friend."

Canvas of the area did not result in any information.

Ms. Holmquist on cross questioned Officer Kasinger on timeline and details of his report. She brought up the fact that he answered a call to the 2457 Eye Street house two weeks ago for another incident. The female subject came outside and was transported to the hospital. Officer Kasinger said he responded with other officers and never went into the house.

Officer Gregory Pope, who was acting watch commander that night was the second witness to testify. His testimony was about assignments and which law enforcement officers were involved.

Officer Mars who was in training and with Officer Pope that day was the last witness to testify.

  2. GFC and Laura, I would not speculate anything. We have no idea why they were discovered in that position. There is no evidence or testimony to suggest that either of the above comments is what may have happened.
