This trial began Wednesday with opening statements. Kratz is on trial for helping DiNardo kill three of the four victims found on a farm in Solebury Township.
Detective Hanks testified using these cell phone records he was able to trace the suspects from the time that DiNardo picked up Kratz to when they picked up one of the victims, and then met the other two in the area of Peddler's Village on July 7.
