Did Quinton Tellis' sister help him burn Jessica Chambers?
Quinton's sister Laqunta Tellis' has the name "Eric" tattooed in large letters on her right hand.
Is this what Jessica saw as she was being burned?
Is this why her dying words sounded like "Eric"?

Jessica Chambers Murder Retrial Verdict
For the second time, a mistrial is declared in the horrific murder of Jessica Chambers.
Chambers was not Tellis’ only alleged victim.
He also faces a murder charge in Louisiana, in the slaying of Meing-Chen Hsiao.
Tellis would now be returned to Louisiana to face that murder charge.
Tellis has pleaded not guilty in Hsiao’s death.
Tellis has pleaded not guilty in Hsiao’s death.
He previously admitted to unlawfully using her credit card.
I really don't know what is wrong with part of the jury that thinks he is innocent.
If you haven't done it already, look at my previous posts about Jessica's death and then tell me what you think.
At least look at the first post i did that has all the details.
This verdict has me miffed.
Hopefully he will at least go away for the other murder.

Location data from several cellphones that showed Tellis was with Chambers the evening of her death, contradicting his previous claims that he was with his friend Michael Sanford.
Sanford took the stand and testified that he wasn't in town that day.
Prosecutors asked Sanford if Tellis was telling the truth when he said he was in Sanford's truck that night.
Sanford said he was
"lying, because my truck was in Nashville."
The defense is scheduled to begin its closing arguments tomorrow.The judge said he expected the trial to go to the jury later that day.

Jessica Chambers' Murder Retrial Day 2
Sherry Flowers testified today that on Dec, 6, 2014, the night that Jessica Chambers was fatally burned, she picked up a man near the location where Chambers' keys were found.
She agrees with a prosecutor that she didn't know who she picked up, but prosecutors seek to connect the ride to Chambers' death.
Flowers said she gave the man, who she never identified in court as being Tellis, a ride to the area of Tellis' sister's house.
They are suggesting it was the right time for Tellis to travel away from Chambers' burning car.
Of course the defense disputes the timing.
A possible attempt to intimidate Flowers led to a pursuit by local law enforcement as the trial was still in progress.
It was confirmed that local authorities made a "traffic stop" involving an individual who may have been watching witness her as she left the Panola County Courthouse following her testimony.
A number of officers, already in the courthouse for the trial, left quickly in pursuit of someone on a motorcycle just after Flowers had completed her testimony and left.
Flowers did not testify in Tellis' first trial last October.
Court officers also removed at least one person from the courtroom Wednesday.
Last October's first trial, ended in a mistrial.

Retrial Of The Jessica Chambers' Murder Case Begins
The first day's testimony focused on emergency workers' reports that Jessica Chambers told them an "Eric" had attacked her.
The testimony of speech pathologist Carolyn Wiles Higdon stated that Chambers could have made sounds, but wouldn't have been able to control them or pronounce consonants with a swollen tongue and charred lips.
Prosecutors tried to plant doubts about what Chambers really could say with severe burns.
They had a speech pathologist to say that Chambers would have lost her ability to speak clearly within minutes of being burned.The testimony of speech pathologist Carolyn Wiles Higdon stated that Chambers could have made sounds, but wouldn't have been able to control them or pronounce consonants with a swollen tongue and charred lips.
That it would have been impossible for her to say "Eric."
Some of the volunteer firefighters and paramedics couldn't understand what Chambers was saying or didn't hear.
Six did testify however, that they heard her say Eric, identifying words and short sentences even though Chambers was speaking in a quiet, abnormally low voice they described as breathy or raspy.
They said she came out of the woods shuffling like a zombie.
Investigators focused on Quinton Tellis after he changed his story and admitted he had been with Chambers later on the Saturday of her death.

Prosecutors said cellphone locations, video, DNA on a keychain and Tellis' statements link him to Chambers' death.
A new witness may testify that she picked up Tellis that night near where Chambers was burned.
Tellis is currently serving a prison sentence in Mississippi on an unrelated burglary charge and also faces another murder indictment in the 2015 stabbing death of Meing-Chen Hsiao in Monroe, Louisiana.

Poor Jessica Chambers was burned alive and her accused killer is going back to court.
Jessica Chambers was a former cheerleader who wanted to be a nurse.
She was 19 years old on December 6, 2014, when she was found burned alive in a wooded area in Courtland, Mississippi.
She died at the hospital a few hours later.
Two hours before she was found, surveillance video showed her at a gas station nearby.
Ali Fadhel, a clerk at the gas station, said she put $14 dollars in instead of her usual $5.
He had asked her why she was putting so much in and she told him she was going somewhere.
Firefighters found her walking next to her burning car around 8 p.m., with burns on 93% of her body.
She was wearing only underwear and walking in 40 degree temperatures.
Some first responders said she looked like a zombie and when asked who did this to her she responded "Eric" or "Derek".
However, with her injuries to her mouth and throat, doctors noted that it would have been difficult for her to properly say anything.
A year later, Quinton Tellis, 29, was indicted by a grand jury for capital murder in her death in February 2016.
He pled not guilty and went to trial in October 2017.
During the trial, prosecutors used cell phone records, surveillance videos and witness testimony to build their case.
Prosecutors say Jessica and Quinton spend early December 6, with a friend smoking marijuana and driving around.
Then Jessica brought him home to his house.
He texted her later asking for "some lovin".
Prosecutors allege that he asked her for sex and she turned him down a few times before.
Tellis told investigators that he had sex with Jessica on one prior occasion, but denied having sex with her the day she died.
He said he and Jessica met up later again that day to get fast food.
Prosecutors say that the couple had sex that evening in her car when Tellis suffocated her.
They did not present any evidence that they had sex or she was suffocated.
He thought that he had killed her.
Tellis then drove Jessica's car with her inside it to the back road, ran to his sister's house nearby, jumped in his sister's car, stopped to pick up gasoline from a shed at his house and torched her car with her inside.
Prosecutors presented evidence that Jessica was burned and she had gasoline on her and down her throat and nose.
There was Tellis' DNA found on her car keys that were found along the path between Tellis' sister's home and the crime scene.
Cell phone location data showed that the two were together until around 7:30 p.m..
Surveillance video showed his sister's vehicle, stopping at his home at 7:50 pm before driving towards the crime scene.
Footage also shows that he changed his clothes three times that day.
Within an hour of her death, Tellis deleted all text messages and communications with her from his phone.
The prosecutors present evidence that directly shows Tellis is the one that burned Jessica in her car.
Defense says that based on first responders testimony that a person named "Eric" or "Derek" should be on trial instead.
After 10 hours the jury could not reach a unanimous verdict.
A retrial has been scheduled for September 24, of this year.
Tellis also faces another murder indictment in Louisiana, where he is accused in the torture death of Meing-Chn Hsiao.
She was a 34 year old Taiwanese graduate student at the University of Louisiana at Monroe.
He was caught using her credit cards after her death.
