Rafferty Former Girlfriend Testifies

Tuesday, 27 March 2012 07:35

It's Day 13 of Michael Rafferty's 1st degree murder trial, and another one of the defendant's ex-girlfriends has taken the stand. Barbara Armstrong, who lives in Guelph testified she sold Rafferty some percocets on April 8, 2009, and that she saw a young woman with brown hair sitting in the passenger seat of his car. That woman is believed to have been Terri-Lynne McClintic. That was one of several stops the pair made on the day Tori disappeared. Armstrong testified that her and Rafferty met a few days after Tori disappeared and Rafferty appeared to be "stressed" and looked "haggard". Armstrong said Rafferty told her a friend of a friend's daughter had gone missing and told her he was going to help in the search for the missing girl. He also said he hadn't been eating or sleeping and had cold sores. Armstrong learned of Rafferty's arrest on a TV news report. OPP Detective Sargent David Vittie is now on the stand. Heart FM's Blair Wilson will have full details this evening, along with daily summaries of the testimony here.
