The fingerprint expert followed much more dramatic testimony from three previous witnesses. Ernesto Medina, Anthony’s father, told of the day his son was abducted. “A terrible thing happened that day,” he told the court. He heard children screaming from outside his apartment, “A man’s got Tony!” The father ran outside and saw his youngest son limping toward his apartment, one shoe off and one shoe on, saying the same thing. He ran inside and called 911, grabbed his keys and began to drive around the neighborhood, searching for his son. He heard his 6-year-old son’s statement to police; the boy’s 10-year-old brother had tried to keep the kidnapper from grabbing his younger brother. “He said Tony had either stepped in the way or got in the way somehow, and he said the man grabbed Tony,” Medina told the court. A detective and a forensic expert testified next about the scene where the child’s body was discovered in the desert.
