Jury sees and hears the plaintiff’s doctor

The jury at the Oconee Common Pleas trial took their seats this morning for a lengthy video of the deposition of the plaintiff’s physician. Dr. Edward Booker Jr., West Union physician, testified on behalf of plaintiff Mahlon Meredith in Meredith’s damage suit against Pickens County. The dispute arises from a 2016 car accident in Walhalla involving Meredith and a Pickens County deputy sheriff. Booker said he examined Meredith for back pain three days after the accident on August 19, 2016.
