Tim McVay faces a charge of first-degree murder in the disappearance and death of Carrie Olson of Davenport, Iowa. The fourth consecutive day of his trial was set for Thursday, June 18, 2015.
It's a bench trial in Rock Island County Court with Judge Michael Meersman presiding. The state has been presenting its case against McVay.
Carrie's parents and best friend have already testified about how and when they discovered she was missing. Bank employees testified about some unsuccessful attempts by someone to use Carrie's debit card to get gas and cash. A Davenport Police officer has also testified about taking a missing person report from Carrie's parents. Investigators from Minnesota testified about their work when Carrie's body was discovered there.
On the third consecutive day of testimony, investigators from Dakota County, Minnesota described their experience when they were called to the location where Carrie's body was found. Surveillance video showing Tim McVay at a tobacco shop and at a gas station was also introduced into evidence.
On day four, testimony began with the defense questioning an investigator from Minnesota. Tim's father, John McVay, also testified about his interactions with Tim before and after Carrie Olson was reported missing, and about his visits to the jail after Tim was arrested.
Tammy Hegi, the woman with whom Tim McVay traveled to Las Vegas, as well as another female friend, testified about their relationships with Tim. Hegi gave nearly two hours of detailed testimony about her relationship with Tim McVay, their December 2012 travel to Las Vegas, and other conversations she had with him before she broke up with him in March 2013.
