:🚨 THE STATE'S CASE: Lt. JJ Hatmaker vs. The Video Tape | Probable Cause Hearing Part 1 of 10
Welcome to Part 1 of our complete breakdown of the probable cause hearing for Cleda Renee and Elbert Dewayne Murray. We are putting local government transparency front and center.
​In this first 10-minute segment, the District Attorney takes the floor to establish the official police narrative, questioning Lt. JJ Hatmaker of the Campbell County Sheriff’s Department. He lays out exactly what he claims happened in the courthouse lobby and elevator on March 2nd.
​But there is a massive problem when you compare his sworn testimony to the actual charging documents:
​The Contradiction on Dewayne: Lt. Hatmaker testifies under oath that Dewayne complied and put his hands behind his back. Yet, Dewayne was officially charged with Resisting Arrest.
​The Contradiction on Renee: Lt. Hatmaker testifies that he was not scratched or injured by Renee. Yet, she was officially charged with Assault causing bodily injury to another.
​Watch the courthouse security footage for yourself alongside the audio of the hearing. Does the visual evidence match the official story? We are breaking this entire hearing down segment by segment because the facts have to speak for themselves.
​Attorney D.T. Christmas is up next for the cross-examination, and you won't want to miss it.
