The on-the-record proceedings in the judge's chambers on Monday gave us a glimpse at the prosecution's case and perhaps a sneak-peek at the order of witnesses they will call. Prosecutors say they’ll be starting with director and choreographer Kenny Ortega and then calling AEG Live’s CEO Paul Gongaware to the stand.
