A paramedic who treated an unconscious 19-year-old woman before her death was the first to take the stand in the retrial of Mark Howerton.
Howerton is on trial for the 2017 murder of Trinity University cheerleader Cayley Mandadi.Mandadi and Howerton had gone to the Mala Luna Festival in San Antonio and left around 3:30 p.m. after an alleged argument.
Paramedic Sharyl Lane was arriving at the hospital with another patient when she said Howerton flagged her down and was yelling for help.“Her top was pulled up and her pants were on the floorboard by her ankles,” Lane told the jury. “She had bruises on her thighs and she wasn’t breathing.”“It was very traumatic, what we saw,” Lane said.
Sgt. John Calentine’s body camera video of his interview with Howerton at the hospital was shown to the jury. Howerton said afterwards that Mandadi told him she wasn’t feeling well and passed out. Howerton said he later noticed she wasn’t breathing and drove to the hospital for help.
