Show Notes
In a significant ruling, a judge has deemed certain text messages inadmissible in the trial of Brianna Moore, a former University of Tampa student charged in her newborn daughters death. The messages, exchanged with a man not the childs father, were ruled improper character evidence. Prosecutors had sought to use them to show intent to harm a child, but the defense argued they were irrelevant as Moore didnt know she was pregnant at the time. The judge agreed, stating the texts only aimed to paint Moore as someone who might kill a child, which is not allowed as evidence. The ruling keeps the trials focus narrow, with no other details on Moores pregnancy knowledge presented.
