Photos OK'd in Chance murder trial

From our media partners at WOOD TV:

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — A man charged with murdering a Kalamazoo area woman and dismembering her body at his Grand Rapids apartment was back in court Friday, as lawyers prepare to present his case.

Jared Chance appeared in court for the hearing in which lawyers argued over what evidence could be shared at his Sept. 9 trial.

Chance’s defense team argued crime scene and autopsy photos should be excluded from the trial, saying the only purpose of showing such graphic photos would be to sway the jury. But the judge ruled the photos would be allowed as evidence.

Chance is charged with murder, tampering with evidence, mutilation of a dead body and concealing the death of 31-year-old Ashley Young of Oshtemo Township.
