-Hanson says they were hoping and thinking there were more remains (bones) inside the bag (black plastic bag)
-Hanson says as medical Examiners office they control the remains while Sheriff's office controls crime scene.
-Hanson uses his own head (he is pretty much bald) to show jury what exactly they are looking at.

-Ashton stood up and objected loudly asking for a sidebar. He even started heading in that direction. Judge said no.
-Mason asks if Hanson knows if someone moved skull. Ashton objects and moves to strike. Stricken.
-Mason asks when Hanson "scooped" everything up if duct tape could have changed positions. Hanson says "it could have"
