Tracey Grist Trial Day One - The Openers and the Accomplice

On Day 1 of Tracey Grist’s trial, prosecutors told jurors that Matthew Restelli was lured from California to Utah, entered Grist’s darkened home, and was shot seven times within moments by Kevin Ellis. The state’s key first witness, Kathryn Restelli, admitted she conspired with her mother and brother and testified that the murder idea began when her mother jokingly suggested they could kill Matthew and claim self-defense. Kathryn told jurors she later tried to back out, but said her mother responded, “I don’t care, I’m doing it anyway,” and continued pushing the plan forward. Prosecutors used her testimony and text messages to argue that Tracey Grist was the driving force behind both the planning and the attempted cover story involving a knife placed in Matthew’s non-dominant hand.Join our squad!
