Alleged rapist Darrius Upshaw's jury trial resumed today with a defense motion in limine regarding impeachment and a stipulation that the testimony provided at the 402 hearing by Julio Armenta Munoz and Raul Barbosa will be considered trial testimony.
Deputy District Attorney Carolyn Schaffer is the prosecutor for the case. Mr. Russ Clanton is Upshaw's attorney.
People rested their case after the testimony of Arcata Police Department Evidence Tech Taron Brown.
Brown testified about chain of custody of Upshaw's cell phone, digital download, specific times, identified phone numbers and conversations via text messages and Snapchat between Upshaw and John Doe #2.
The messages and web history exhibits were published to Judge Kelly Neel. This is a court trial so I did not see the exhibits. Any details were via testimony.
Pornhub was the star of today's testimony. Giving dates and specific times urls were accessed, Upshaw visited sites such as gay porn, young perps porn, security officers butt (rest of title was inaudible) and video titles such as "Plumber gets his pipe cleaned by teen Bambi Brooks", "Dave Jones brunette wife gets creampied by plumber", "Family Strokes 4th of July bbq turns into step sibling fuckfest" and "Family Strokes Fucked by my step bro during movie night."
During cross examination, Brown said shevonly clicked on one video to verify the url. She was at her work computer and did not click on all videos. She did not watch the videos and could not tell if this was heterosexual or gay porn.
I am not sure why Mr. Clanton is making an issue of what kind of porn it is because he said in court, his client is gay. No one is disputing that and it has been confirmed via testimony. John Doe #1 testified that after Upshaw orally copulated him, Upshaw watched porn, masturbated and then ejaculated on John Doe #1's face. The charges are alleged rape and oral copulation of John Doe #1 and John Doe #2. Why does it matter what kind of porn Upshaw watched?
Still, Mr. Clanton had his defense investigator testify about three videos. "There was no gay component."
All depicted heterosexual sex between a man and woman. These sex acts included "fellatio." Lassiter watched the videos in their entirety.
"Plumber gets his pipe cleaned by teen Bambi Brooks" was a man and woman having sex which was 7 minutes 30 seconds long. "The female giving fellatio to the man" was two and a half minutes. "Rest of the video was various positions of the plumber and customer's daughter having sex."
"Dave Jones brunette wife gets creampied by plumber" also included the "woman giving fellatio to the man" two different times.
"Family Strokes 4th of July bbq turns into step sibling fuckfest" and "Family Strokes Fucked by my step bro during movie night" had a woman performing oral sex on the man three times.
Defense will have more witnesses tomorrow.
