Circumstantial Evidence Presentation Continues
Over the last two days, three women testified about their sexting with Ross Harris, including one minor.
Yesterday, the prosecution continued to present evidence which they believe indicates Harris intentionally killed Cooper to live a 'child-free' life.
No Conscience
A woman testified that she and Harris exchanged nude photos of their private parts and suggested one day they’d hook up for sex. At one point, Harris told the woman he was the lead guitarist at his church.
This prompted Caitlyn Hickey Floyd to message Harris: “But you still exercise the thought of being with someone else when you’re married?”
When Harris responded, “Yep,” Floyd asked, “Does your conscience ever kick in?” “Nope,” Harris replied.
Double Life
On the morning Harris left Cooper in his car he responded to a post on the social media app Whisper by a mother of two who said she felt unappreciated. “I hate being married with kids. The novelty has worn off and I have nothing to show for it,” she wrote, adding, “I don’t resent my kids. I resent him.”
At 9:15 a.m., while eating breakfast with Cooper, Harris messaged the woman: “I love my son and all but both need escapes.” Ten minutes later he got out of his car in the Home Depot parking lot, leaving Cooper behind.
During his opening statement, lead prosecutor Chuck Boring said this exchange helps explain why Harris wanted to kill his son.
Cooper was (likely) still alive when Harris went to the vehicle at lunch
On Tuesday, former Cobb County Medical Examiner Brian Frist testified “Cooper could’ve survived” the morning of June 18, 2014, as long as temperatures remained in the 90s inside the car. A person dies of hypothermia, he said, when his or her internal temperature exceeds 105 degrees.
On Wednesday, a heat expert called by the state testified the temperature inside Harris’ SUV didn’t pass 100 degrees until just before 1 p.m. The temperature was 98 degrees at 12:45 p.m., when Harris returned to his vehicle to drop off some light bulbs.
Frist said there was no way to pinpoint an exact time of death, but the possibility adds another chilling layer to the prosecution’s claim that Harris intentionally killed his son.
