When Kenneth M. Pierce was tried for vehicular homicide in the death of a 6-year-old girl, the key piece of evidence couldn't be stored in an evidence locker - it was a 1980 blue Chevy pickup.

And the question of who will pay for its seven-year storage has gone all the way to the 4th District Court of Appeal in West Palm Beach.
