Karina also said that although Karen had been drinking, she didn't appear to be really impaired in any way, and she had, quote, no concerns about her driving home that night. Then on Friday, we got started with the much-anticipated testimony from ARCA. The first ARCA witness was Dr. Daniel Wolfe, who's the director of accident reconstruction.

On direct, it was clear that attorney Jackson wanted the jury to know that Dr. Wolfe and ARCA were not hired by the defense initially. We know that the ARCA experts were originally hired by outside federal investigators, but all the jury is allowed to know in this trial is that the experts were hired by some sort of outside entity.

Then Dr. Wolf testified to two main types of testing that his group did to try to figure out if the damage to Karen's car and the injuries to John's body were consistent with being in a collision.

In the first type of test, Dr. Wolf wanted to see if the damage to Karen's taillight could have been caused by something other than hitting John, specifically whether throwing a cocktail glass at that taillight could cause the damage. So his team designed a cannon, a literal cannon, that could launch cocktail glasses at different model tail lights.

And he found that firing the cocktail glass at 37 miles per hour could cause damage to the tail light that was consistent with what was found on Karen's car. Then when asked to compare his test to Dr. Welcher's blue paint test, Dr. Wolf pointed out that Welcher only showed that it was possible for John's arm and the taillight to align at the same height.

But the test doesn't really prove much else besides that. It doesn't show what kind of force would be generated or what kind of injuries it might cause.

Then in his second series of tests, Dr. Wolf used a Lexus that was the same model as Karen's, along with a crash dummy and a special dummy arm, and he used these to try to model what a collision between the car and the arm would look like at different speeds. He did the tests at 10, 15, 17, 24, and 29 miles per hour.
