Day Three centered on the immediate aftermath inside the house, with jurors hearing from Diane Restelli as recorded calls were played in which Tracey Grist told Matthew’s family, “Matt is dead,” while Diane testified she believed Kathryn was being coached during later calls. Officer testimony from Anthony Neil and Detective Wyatt Nicosia walked jurors through first-entry bodycam footage showing Kevin Ellis standing over Matthew’s body and immediately framing the shooting as self-defense. The day ended with Utah DPS Sgt. Jen Faumuina introducing 3D Pharoah scene scans that set up the prosecution’s later argument that the physical evidence did not match the family’s original version of events.
