Detective Tells Jury Jade's Phone Had No Mention of Cocaine in the Blaise Taylor Trial | Pt 21

Thirteen months of her phone. Every slang word for cocaine the team could think of. Not one mention of it anywhere on Jade Benning's device. Detective Thomas Miller is the digital forensics examiner who imaged Jade Benning's iPhone for the Blaise Taylor poisoning trial in Nashville. He never worked the scene and never interviewed a witness. He pulled 127 gigabytes off her phone and built the 151-page exhibit the state walked the jury through: the texts, the locations, the photos, the last 13 months of her life. Blaise Taylor, a former Tennessee Titans scout, is charged with poisoning Jade and their unborn daughter Ivy Blair with a lethal dose of cocaine. Before Miller said one word about what he found, he admitted what the jury would not see. The 151 pages are not everything on the phone. The search terms were built with the lead detective and the prosecutor, and the jury is seeing the slice of 13 months they went looking for. The defense spent the afternoon on exactly that. --- WATCH WITH JUSTICE 0:21 to 13:23 - Miller admits the 151-page presentation the jury is about to see is not everything on Jade's phone. Hold onto that as the state walks you through their version of 13 months. 17:00 to 38:20 - The state rebuilds Jade's last day from her own device. She cooks dinner, sets up a paint date, and hearts a text from Blaise at 6:55. Watch the ordinary evening the state says ended in poisoning. 1:00:08 to 1:11:12 - The night itself. Twelve photos in four minutes, one deleted 30 seconds after it was taken, the 9:29 call to her best friend, and a 911 call from Blaise Taylor's phone. Then the phone goes dark at 9:35 until morning. 1:12:17 to 1:24:08 - The state puts its motive in Jade's own words, the note she wrote telling Blaise she would have this baby with or without him. 1:45:51 to 1:56:53 - The heart of the poisoning case. Miller reveals he hunted every cocaine slang term across 13 months and found nothing, then concedes the kitchen camera went dark three days before she died and he cannot explain why. 2:03:45 to 2:40:29 - The cross. The defense exposes a search built from the prosecutor and the lead detective's own terms, surfaces a dealer saved in Jade's contacts and a drug run on the day she died, and leaves that dark camera unexplained. --- COMPLETE CASE COVERAGE justiceisaprocess.com SUBSCRIBE for daily trial coverage and hit the notification bell so you never miss testimony.
