In the second day of hearings, defense attorneys for Ex-Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez continue to press to have a cell phone removed as evidence.
The defense claims the phone was obtained improperly by police, who retrieved the Blackberry from the office of Hernadez’s lawyers in Boston. Massachusetts law prohibits searches of law offices. The prosecution says that after they obtained the warrant for the phone it made no difference.
Prosecutors maintain Hernandez’s cell phone is a necessary piece of evidence as it contains messages leading up to shooting of Odin Lloyd.
Judge Susan Garsh did not say when she would rule on the issue.
