Harris may or may not be present in the courtroom when the Deputy District Attorney Kathy Ta, plays the interview, as she was release from the court unless she is asked to return for additional questioning.
Harris’ second day of testimony continued with questions from the prosecution and the defense, continued with, “I don’t remember,” answers.
Once the defense joined the cross-examination, Tory Lanez’ attorneys outright asked Harris if at any point Lanez, his office, or anyone on Lanez have contacted her with a bribe — “No,” she said.
George Mgdesyan, one of two of Lanez’s attorneys, pointed out to Harris though she had an attorney, evoked her fifth amendment right, and “made a deal” with the district attorney — she could still be charged for some aspects of the case.
After a brief counsel with her attorney, and back on the stand, Harris said she felt pressured by the district attorney as they showed up at her door insisting she interview with them and if she didn’t testify she could go to jail. She also said felt pressured during the prosecution cross-examination. The court breaked for lunch.
Once, after lunch, Harris took the stand and she clarified, she didn’t feel pressure from the district attorney to do the September 20, 2022 interview and pointed it out a couple more times. The defense presented its question and asked Harris to describe her relationship with Megan.
“We were like sister,” she said. “We lived together,” she added.
On what she remembered, when asked, she told the defense, she and Megan got out of the car and bumped into each other. Whether she fought with her — she doesn’t recall. She also said she heard from Megan’s team that she’d stepped on glass once she got to the hospital.
Mgdesyan also asked her if she shot Megan — “Absolutely, not,” she replied.
On the matter of “Dance B%tch, Dance,” Harris said she doesn’t know where that came from.
The doctor, Dr. Lee Haruno, who treated Megan at Cedar Sinai Medical Center the early morning of the Jul 12, 2022 shooting presented the court with x-rays of Megan’s feet. In the short testimony, the doctor called the cause of the wounds — fragments. Dr. Haruno said Megan was injured by metal fragments, but not a full bullet.
Los Angeles Police Department criminalist Stacy Banderschaff, known for her fifteen years of DNA and GSR, determined Harris and Lanez both tested positive for GSR. The exact amounts in comparison to each other, weren’t mentioned.
The prosecution is adding a Tweet from Megan and Harris into evidence. However, the defense objected and said they haven’t had time to review it.
The defense is also pushing for the testimony of Detective Ryan Stogner, who was supposedly fired from the LAPD, but instead he was placed on leave in October after being accused of domestic violence” by the LAPD, according to the Los Angeles county district attorney’s office.
The defense considers Stogner an important witness in trial as he is allegedly the lead detective who didn’t swab Harris for GSR and making it difficult to prove if Harris had gunpowder residue on her hands.
Stepping out of the day six of the Megan Thee Stallion and Tory Lanez case, Megan’s ex-bestie pleads the fifth and continues to sustain she doesn’t remember the night of the shooting due to her drunken state.
