Content description:
Burton Abbott sits next to his attorney, Stanley Whitney, at the defense table in courtroom #5 of the Alameda County Courthouse. Behind them on the wall is a large map of what appears to be the area near Abbott's Trinity County cabin, where the gravesite of Stephanie Bryan was found. An unidentified man sits near Abbott and Whitney at another table -- he is perhaps the court clerk?
