Heading: The Testimony of Skidmore

Text: Patricia Skidmore, a DEA intelligence research specialist, analyzed the subpoenaed cell phone records from the cell phones recovered from Luna, Pompa, and Zavala. She compared the entries listed for Gorro and Nejo in Luna's cell phone with entries from the drug ledgers and found similarities. Skidmore identified the phone records pertaining to the 6323 number. She stated that the 6323 number belonged to Zavala and was recovered because of the cellular telephone that was seized by Agent Moreman on July 16, 2004. Skidmore also testified that the 9418 number was associated with the entry for Nejo in Luna's cell phone. Based on her analysis of the phone records for the 9418 number and the 6323 number, she testified that those two cell phones could have been carried by the same person. Skidmore prepared a chart, which was admitted into evidence, indicating that the 9418 number called Luna thirty-seven times, called Rivera eleven times, and called Pompa zero times. The 6323 number called Luna zero times, called Rivera eighteen times, and called Pompa forty-five times. With respect to her analysis of Luna's drug ledgers, Skidmore identified a total of 256 kilograms of cocaine attributed to Nejo for the period of September 2003 through May 2004. The total amount of cocaine documented in Luna's ledgers exceeded 3,100 kilograms.
