The forensic pathologist who conducted the autopsy on nine year old Rowan Ford testified at the trail of a man accused in her killing. Dr. Mark Norton told the jury a cut sustained during a violent rape would have been very painful. 

Other testimony against Chris Collings included DNA evidence collected during the investigation five years ago.

Prosecutors say the girl was kidnapped from her home in Newton County, killed in Barry County, and dumped in a McDonald County cave.
