The trial of Nichole Rice is unfolding in Grand Forks, with investigators revisiting a case that remained unsolved for years. Testimony on the second day focused on key evidence—the murder weapon, a suspicious window screen, and the role of a true crime TV series in renewing the investigation. Prosecutors questioned law enforcement about why Rice was an early suspect, while the defense pushed an alternate theory. As testimony continues, the court weighs whether long-standing suspicions hold up under scrutiny—or if another story emerges.
