Parsons was shot dead at a petrol station on the Bluff last year. Darryl Murrison and Christopher Housten have been charged with her murder. 

It was an emotionally charged day for the family of Bianca Parsons yesterday as video footage of the shooting was played in court.

Parsons' husband, Orson, also took to the stand - and was overcome with emotion as he recounted the events of that fateful day.

Orson had popped into the convenience store at the petrol station - while Bianca and their young daughter waited in the car.

Following the testimony of two police officers who responded to the scene - a third officer was then called up - whom the State said would be an expert witness.

Counsel for the accused objected - saying they were being ambushed by the State as they hadn't been told about the expert witness.
