Graphic Details of Bodies Found at Lester Street

MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Day two of testimony in the mass murder trial of Jesse Dotson was especially gruesome. Jurors saw disturbing pictures today of the crime scene where six people were murdered two years ago.

"They were right there close together on the coffee table," said Sgt. Mullins.

Sgt. Anthony Mullins with Memphis Police Department's homicide division remembered where he located two of the weapons. He was back on the stand for day two of testimony.

"We took blood from the carpet samples on either side of Hollis Seals," said Mullins.

With the help of the FBI, who built this model for prosecutors, Mullins showed jurors the layout of the home. Mullins detailed each item he tagged as evidence from inside the home at 722 Lester Street, much of it was undiscovered initially because of the cramped crime scene.

"We didn't see that till the second day when we started moving some items around," said Mullins.

In the front room, Mullins told jurors, victim Shindri Roberson was discovered nearly naked, with a small amount of cocaine on her body. He stepped off the stand to give jurors a look at her blood soaked blue jeans, removed from her at the morgue.

"That indicates to me the pants were up when the wound occurs and they are not pulled down until afterwards," said Mullins.

Photos reveal Cecil Dotson Sr's lifeless body was nearby, and he was holding a bag of marijuana at the time he was murdered. Jurors were shown other pieces of bloody evidence from the room where the four adults were found deceased.

Jessie Dotson, the lone suspect in the case dubbed the Lester Street Massacre, was relatively emotionless during the testimony.

"This is the other knife blade found in the tub. Again, no handle," said Mullins.

Mullins un-wrapped a portion of ceramic wall cut out from the bathroom. On it, a bloody palm print later determined to be that of 4 year old Cemario Dotson.

"You can see the blood on the floor, the debris used by the paramedics," said Mullins.

Pictures showed blood stains and splatter on the floor near the toilet and walls near a window.

Back in the bedrooms, Mullins walked the jury through the scattered mess that included more weapons, bloody wooden boards and knives.
