ROCKVILLE, Md. — Montgomery County prosecutors told a judge Thursday that transporting jurors to Laura Wallen’s remote burial site — accessible only by a 4-wheel-drive vehicle — is crucial to proving their murder case against Tyler Tessier.
Meanwhile, Tessier’s lawyer wants to prevent jurors from seeing sonograms of Wallen’s fetus and her pregnancy records, because it “would be upsetting to the jury, enflame the jury, and lead to a verdict based on emotion.”During a status hearing in Montgomery County Circuit Court, prosecutor Donna Fenton informed Judge Michael Mason and Tessier’s public defender Allen Wolf she was drafting a motion requesting a rare site visit for jurors in the murder trial, which is set to begin Sept. 4.
“It is critically important to the state’s case,” said Fenton, saying the remote area was only accessible by 4-wheel-drive vehicle, but Tessier was familiar with it, because he was living nearby when Wallen, his girlfriend, disappeared on Sept. 4, 2017.
Mason wondered aloud why video and photographs wouldn’t suffice in illustrating where Wallen — a Howard County teacher — was buried.

Kinda seems like a bullshit tactic on the prosecution's part
