LEON HARRIS, CNN ANCHOR: Houston prosecutors are planning to rest their case today in the trial of Andrea Yates. CNN's David Mattingly is there and he's covering the story for us.</s>DAVID MATTINGLY, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): Prosecution continues today in the capital murder trial of Andrea Yates. This after the state submitted yesterday two powerful pieces of evidence in court. First, a police videotape showing the bodies of the five Yates' children as police found them. Some emotionally-charged moments also Andrea Yates crying as the prosecution revealed the pictures of her children. Also, there was the police audiotape confession by Yates who could be heard speaking in a monotone voice as described how the children struggled as she drowned them in a family bathtub. An emotional day to be sure, maybe, some say, too emotional.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: They want to shock the jury. They want to make the jury angry. They want the jury to forget the evidence of her state of mind and concentrate simply on the prosecution's mantra, which is five dead children. They're going to repeat that every day.</s>MATTINGLY: The prosecution is expected to wrap up its case soon, then the defense takes over with what is expected to be days of medical testimony. David Mattingly, CNN, Houston.
