Police say Heil was under the influence when he hit 4-year-old with his car. Marco later died.
Wednesday, more officers who worked the scene are taking the stand, along with people who witnessed the crash.
Wednesday morning, we heard two key testimonies, one from Lexington police Officer Brandon Muravchick, who conducted Jacob Heil’s field sobriety tests, and the other from Crystal Johnson, the woman who said she was standing behind the shemwells on Cooper drive right before the crash happened.
Officer Muravchick conducted several field sobriety tests on Jacob Heil, including including the horizontal gaze nystagmus test, the one leg stand, and walk and walk and turn test.

Muravchick said Heil passed some parts of the tests, but shows signs of impairment on other parts. Muravchick arrested Heil for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence.
Attorneys then shifted their attention to Crystal Johnson. She, her husband, and granddaughter were walking behind the Shemwells on Cooper Drive. She showed attorneys where Marco, his brother, and dad where standing right before the crash.

She said she saw the car hit Marco, but did not see the car leave the road. She immediately dialed 911. Johnson was visibly shaken and the Shemwell family in tears as the 911 recording played in the courtroom.
Johnson said Heil got out of the car after the crash, rushed over to Marco and his dad, wanting to help, but the dad told him to go away. Here’s what Johnson then said to Heil.
“I just, something about right now, he can’t accept your help,” Johnson said. “You just have to let him do what he has to do.”
Johnson said she told Heil to call his parents in which he agreed to do so. Wednesday morning, we also heard from a crime lab investigator and, this afternoon, jurors are supposed to visit the scene.
