Pittman Trial Continues

TYLER — In state district court in Tyler, the trial of Dennis Boyd Pittman, 47, continues. He is accused of forcing several children to dance and engage in sexual activity. KETK-TV reports, for a 13 year old witness Thursday it was a day of claims and contradictions.

The teen’s original taped children’s protective services interviews from 5 years ago was played. In them she denied there was sex in the club. She denied she was ever naked in the club. But she told juries in earlier trials the opposite. When confronted with the contradiction, she claimed over and over she didn’t remember.

On the tape she was asked if she had ever seen any adult naked. She replied only her mother. But again, she told earlier juries that other people in the club were naked. There was even a claim that she had seen Patrick Kelly, “Booger Red”, murder someone. But no body was ever found and no missing persons report was ever filed.

Testimony continued Friday in the so-called Mineola swingers club trial.
