Description
The body of Angela Ballard was found partially buried in sand at the base of an Atlantic Beach sand dune on the morning of 9 July 1982. Angela's pantsuit was tangled around her feet, and her mouth and throat were packed with sand. A forensic pathologist testified that he observed bruises and scrapes on Angela's face, neck, and chest, and opined that these had been caused by the blows of a blunt object, such as a fist. The pathologist believed the cause of Angela's death to have been asphyxiation, from either the compression of her neck by an arm or the obstruction of the airways by sand, or from a combination of these. An examination of the victim's genital area revealed neither injuries nor the presence of sperm; however, the pathologist testified that such findings did not preclude the possibility that the victim had experienced sexual activity or penetration before her death.
