"After Frye and Detwiler arrived at the restaurant and spotted a person wearing a face mask, a beanie pulled low and multiple layers of clothing, it didn't take long for Frye to recognize Mangione, he said Thursday on the witness stand in a Manhattan courtroom. I recognized the defendant as the person that was shown in the media, specifically in Fox News, Frye said."
"Frye was on the stand for the third day of an evidentiary hearing for the murder case against Mangione — and the one year anniversary of Thompson's death — in which he shed more light on Mangione's arrest and provided annotations to bodycam footage recorded during his interactions with Mangione, which was played for the courtroom. Mangione, wearing a charcoal suit with a white shirt and seated at the defense table, occasionally took notes on a legal pad as the footage played."
