Duchesne Takes the Stand at Murder Trial

A key prosecution witness is on the stand at the Second Degree Murder Trial of Kenneth Ivall.

Angela Duchesne took the witness stand yesterday.

Duchesne says she had met Ed Wilson previously when she was just
16 years old.

She says she sold him crack cocaine.

She says they drove in his truck and at one point he began pawing at her, but she managed
to fight him off.

She adds that she described Wilson to Kenneth Ivall as a creep and stalker-type guy.

In the early morning hours of March 21st, 2009, she says she saw
Wilson again outside the Tower Motel.

She remembers Wilson striking Ken Ivall, and then hitting her.

She also witnessed Wilson being assaulted by a group of people.

Later she found him lying in the middle of A Street West and slapped and
kicked him.

She says she and Ivall dragged his body to a nearby trail that leads up to
the train tracks, where she say Ivall repeatedly stomp Wilson on the head.

She admits to frequent black-outs that night and doesn't remember moving Wilson's body onto the train tracks.

Today, a pathologist will be on the stand.
