Overview

• Judge Kira Krivosh postponed a decision on further testing of a watch found near Aliza Sherman’s body and directed both sides to file additional briefs by Sept. 19.
• An attorney-only meeting is set for Sept. 18 to address discovery deadlines as the court manages a large volume of material.
• Prosecutors say the watch has been tested twice, contains limited DNA from an unknown male, and may not have been handled by the attacker, who they believe likely wore gloves.
• Defense attorney Jon Paul Rion argues there is no DNA linking Gregory Moore to the crime and seeks additional testing that could indicate the ancestry of the unknown profile.
• Prosecutors asked to extend the evidence exchange deadline from Oct. 1 to Dec. 31 due to privilege reviews and newly processed items from BCI; Moore remains free on a $2 million bond after pleading not guilty.
