Witness describes fatal shootiI heard four loud popping noises," Gerhardt said. "Workers were screaming, as were the patrons in the cafe." [Sample Our Free Breaking News Alert And 3 P.M. News Newsletters] Gerhardt said the gunman was an arms-length away from her and fired more shots at Justin-Jinich, 21, of Hair extensions Timnath, Colo., as she lay wounded. She said the shooter then fled, after looking at her and two friends. Some relatives of Justin-Jinich wept and put their arms around each other during her testimony. Justin-Jinich's co-worker, Amy Tosto, testified that she was about 12 feet away when Justin-Jinich was shot. "I saw her fall to the ground and saw a shooter shooting a gun at her toward the ground," Tosto said. "She had clearly been shot. She was bleeding heavily. She was just out of it. She was just moaning," Tosto said, adding that she and another co-worker stayed with Justin-Jinich until paramedics arrived. A third witness, Barry Finder, got choked up on the stand when asked what his reaction was immediately after the shooting. "Oh my God," Finder said. "There must be something we can do right now, but also very unsure of what his (Morgan's) intention was." Justin-Jinich was working at The Red and Black Café inside Broad Street Books on May 6, 2009, when Morgan allegedly walked in wearing a wig and shot her several times. Morgan, 32, of Marblehead, Mass., surrendered the next night about 10 miles away in Meriden. Morgan's defense is pursuing an insanity defense in the case, which stunned and frightened the Wesleyan community over two days and caused a campus lockdown. After the shooting, but before Morgan was arrested, police found journals in his car and announced that he had written about killing Justin-Jinich, going on a shooting spree on campus and Feather hair targeting Jews. Justin-Jinich's family is Jewish, and her grandmother was a Holocaust survivor. Morgan and Justin-Jinich apparently met in 2007 while attending a summer class at New York University. Justin-Jinich filed a harassment complaint with police that summer claiming she was getting unwanted phone calls and insulting emails from Morgan, but she didn't pursue criminal charges. On Wednesday, Morgan was dressed in a beige prison uniform and his legs were shackled as he sat next to his lawyers. He rocked forward and back in his chair at the defense table, and his legs were shaking at times. He didn't speak. Prosecutor Timothy Liston also called several police officers Wednesday to testify about the aftermath of the killing. State police Detective Daniel Cargill was on the stand when Liston introduced numerous items into evidence, including the 9 mm handgun used in the feather extension killing and bullet fragments removed from Justin-Jinich's body. Cargill also read aloud from a journal allegedly written by Morgan that was found inside the store. In the journal, the writer remarked about the "smart and beautiful" people at Wesleyan and wrote, "I think it okay to kill Jews and go on a killing spree at this school." The police announcement about Morgan's writings prompted Wesleyan officials to lock buildings on campus, tell students to stay indoors and tell staff members to stay home. A synagogue across the street from the bookstore closed its doors temporarily, and congregants considered canceling Sabbath services. Another state police detective, Jeffrey Payette, testified about video and photos he took of the aftermath of the crime scene showing that the shooter left behind a trail of evidence including the gun, Morgan's laptop computer and a wig and sunglasses he allegedly wore as a disguise.g of Conn. student
