Judge Rules Murder Photos In Miraglia Case Too Graphic
FREEHOLD- In the Miraglia Murder Case, the trial Judge ruled that the photographs of the deceased were deemed too graphic. In an effort to put the photographs in front ot the jury, the Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office "grayed out" a series of silhouettes that were superimposed onto the crime-scene photographs. The gray silhouettes, displayed in the photographs, were from the entry foyer to Julia Miraglia's home and an upstairs bedroom where Martinez lived . The silhouettes masked the torsos, heads, hands and feet of the two victims. The defendant is accused of murdering his grandmother in the foyer and his ex-girlfriend in the upstairs bedrooom. The defense continues to assert the insanity defense on behalf of the defendant.
