A. During our investigation again we didn’t find anything, no forced entry into the home. We didn’t find anything unusual in the home. Everything seemed to be in order. The only thing that was possibly -- the bedroom, the bed wasn’t made, There was some books and magazines laying on it. Otherwise, everything was the way it should be. Nobody really related to us that they saw anything unusual in the neighborhood those last few days. Everything should have been fine, at which point, you know, we talked to the husband. He said he was trying to find his xX-wife to return the children. He became concerned, finally contacted one of hex neighbors, whose son called steve, the boyfriend, and asked was Kathleen with him. and he said no, And at that time everybody became concerne The X-husband, Drew, and a couple of neighbors went to the house. A locksmith was called, opened the door. A couple of neighbors went inside, found Kathleen in her master bedroom in the bathtub, which appeared to them she was deceased. And at that time 911 wae called, the police department arrived. And like I said, we were called. and our investigation shows that basically after the coroner's report and toxicology that she died from drowning. We think that the laceration from her -- that she sustained to the back of her head was caused by a fall in the tub. There was nothing to lead us to believe that anything else occurred. There was no other evidence at this time that shows that anything else occurred. And at the point we're at now, we're still waiting -- all alibis, all stories were checked as to where people were, and if 7 remember -- if t recall correctly, the only thing we're waiting for now is some phone records to find out if certain phone calle were made when they said they were made. So at this point, that’s where we're at. MR. O'NEIL: Do the jurors have any questions for the witness? SURY MEMBER: I Did MR. O'NBIL: Yes, sir. JURY MEMBER: Regarding the laceration to the back of her head, you indicated it happened in the tub, where on the tub did she hit? Did she hit the faucet? Was there any hair left? THE WITNESS; No, it’s on the far side of the tub away from the faucet, you know, where normally you would set and rest your head when you take a bath. JURY MEMBER: There was also -- who found her? THE WITNESS: 1 believe it was Marley, if I remember correctly. JORY MEMBER: And the X-husband didn’t go into the house? THE WITNESS: No, he stayed out. And he made statements, he stayed out just -- just in case something was wrong. JURY MEMBER: And they are verifying the phone records, correct, that the calls were made? THE WITNESS: Yes, those take quite awhile to get, 90, yes, we've got phone records coming from her phone, his phone, Steve's phone, and the rest of it. So, yes, we still have to verify that But at this pointe right now we don’t have any indication that what was told to us will be any different than what the phone records will show JURY MEMBER: I have one final question. MR. O/NEIL: sure. JURY MEMBER: What are the ages of the children? THE WITNESS: 12. MR. O/NEIL: 9 and a2. AUDIENCE MEMBER: 9 and 11. JURY MEMBER: Were they interviewed regarding the father's whereabouts during the course of the evening? TEE WITNESS: I believe at this time they weren't. If 1 remember correctly, we didn’t interview the children, just not to put them through that at that case. His current wife was interviewed, his job was interviewed, all those neighbors around in that area were -- were talked to. We have no reason to believe at this time that he did not -- he was not where he said he was. MR. O'NEIL: Any further questions? Questions for the family? okay. Special Agent Hardy, you can be seated in your original chair, sir. THE WITNESS: Thank you. (Witness excused.) MR. O/NEIL; Toxicology report, St. Louis University Forensic Toxicology Laboratory. subject analyzed, Kathleen Savio, is negative A report from Dr. Bryan Mitchell, forensic pathologist employed by this office in hie examination of xathleen Savio. It’s his opinion that the immediate cause of death on her death certificate be listed as drowning. In this pathological report he says on the left occipital scalp there is a one-inch blunt laceration associated with that wound, there 4s no ekull fracture. It’s not a life-threatening blow that was to her head. It could possibly, though, have rendered her unconscious. There are six -- or there are seven other bruises noted to the decedent, all of which are old. There are no new bruises noted to the decedent. In consideration of the circumstances surrounding her death, the available medical history and autopsy findings, the death of this 40-year-old white female, Kathleen Savio, is ascribed to drowning. The laceration could have been related to a fall. This concludes the evidence and testimony, If Kathleen’s family members, boyfriend, and the state police could kindly step to the outer hallway, our jury will deliberate in private. 27
