Find updates from reporter Maricela De La Cruz below. On May 13, Department of Justice criminalist Heather Tomchick talked about the Smith & Wesson knife believed to have been used in the attacks. She noted blood stains and creases on the handle of the knife that was sent in for DNA processing.Tomchick explained that on different parts of the knife, different amounts of DNA found could likely match different people. They are Dominguez himself and the people who were attacked: victims David Breaux, Karim Abou Najm and survivor Kimberlee Guillory.That same day, jurors were presented with a processing photo of Dominguez after he was arrested in connection with the attacks. Det. Alex Torres noted visible blood stains on the black sweater and black pants he had on at the time.A photo of a grocery bag Dominguez allegedly had at the time of his detainment showed a knife and some food items inside. The blade inside was similar to the knife presented to the courtroom in recent days.Later, a tent was brought into the courtroom. It was the same make and model as the one where Guillory was residing when she was stabbed.Torres testified on the cuts and tears to the tent during that attack.May 14 followed with prosecutors presenting to the courtroom the clothes Guillory wore the night of her stabbing. Blood stains and holes can be seen on her clothing.A physical security director for UC Davis Police and a detective from Dominguez’s arrest took the stand to share their testimony and were also cross-examined. The detective, Sgt. Ramos will return Thursday morning to continue testimony.Davis, the small college city that houses UC Davis, was gripped in fear from the attacks that began on April 27, 2023, until officers arrested Dominguez in connection almost a week later on May 3.DeMoura and Van Der Hoek seek to convince jurors that Dominguez committed the attacks with premeditation out of being disgruntled with life. He had broken up with his girlfriend at the time, shortly before the stabbings. And he was also facing expulsion from UC Davis.Meanwhile, Dominguez's defense attorney Daniel Hutchinson has not outright denied the attacks but emphasized that the defendant was in florid psychosis and was not aware that he committed the stabbings.Hutchinson, during his opening statements, told jurors the story of an immigrant from El Salvador who was a bright student-athlete whose mental wellness and hygiene declined after starting college at UC Davis.Key witnesses called to the stand include the woman who survived the attacks, her friends who rushed to help when she was attacked, a doctor who rushed to help one of the slain victims when he heard screams, and several first responders who were investigating the stabbings, whether it be through evidence or responding to the crime scenes.The two men who died were Abou Najm and Breaux.Abou Najm was biking home when he was attacked at Sycamore Park. Throughout the trial, first responders who examined his body noted that he had 12 stab wounds and 40 cuts.Breaux, who was fondly known by the community because he would ask people what their definition of compassion is, suffered 31 stab wounds while he was sleeping on a bench in Central Park.Other notable evidence presented so far in the trial includes photos of knives and makeshift memorials found on Dominguez's phone, and possessions of Dominguez that had blood on them.| VIDEO BELOW | Man who says he saw Carlos Dominguez describes following him for 45 minutes before police arrivedPhotos of the two men killed were also presented to jurors, which prompted Abou Najm's father to leave the courtroom twice.Guillory, the woman who told jurors of when she was attacked by a man she identified to be Dominguez, was also heard crying in the courtroom when a 911 audio call of her calling dispatchers played.Dominguez, during much of the trial, has remained near motionless, blankly staring at graphic evidence presented to jurors and during witness testimony from people who said they encountered him.If convicted, prosecutors said they would not seek the death penalty.
