MARKSVILLE — After being introduced into the record Wednesday during a motions hearing, the body cam footage that shows the shooting of Jeremy Mardis and his father now is public.

Though edited, viewers should be warned that it still contains some graphic content and language.

Town Talk reporter Melissa Gregory has returned from Marksville and motion hearings involving the cases of Derrick Stafford and Norris Greenhouse Jr. In addition, the judge ruled that prior incidents involving Stafford may be used at trial. Stafford's attorneys have indicated they will appeal that ruling.

Check back for the video and a complete recap of today's motion hearings later this afternoon and follow reporter Melissa Gregory @JournoMGregory on Twitter for ongoing updates.
