Judge reviews request to include law enforcement training documents in Kristin Ramsey trial
Digital Editor
A judge is reviewing arguments after Kristin Ramsey's defense team requested that law enforcement training documents be added to the evidence in her trial for the 2011 killing of Ashley Okland in West Des Moines.
Court filings state that Ramsey's legal team is seeking to include training and policy documents from the Iowa Attorney General's Cold Case Unit, West Des Moines police, and Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation.

Prosecutors have filed against the request, arguing that the materials are not specific to this case.
The defense has countered, stating that witnesses in the case are members of law enforcement and that their training is relevant to the proceedings.
There is no word yet on when the judge will make a decision.
