just let em do it
I tried to resurrect the old thread (started back on Jan 2 IIRC). I
could still read it but no replies can be made there. Last post there was on Jan 6. The trial for the road rage incident where the perp killed momma by running over her just ended. Verdict "guilty as charged of 2nd degree murder". Defense claimed (as expected) that Jonathan Ellington ran over momma while trying to escape shots being fired at him by daddy. Prosecutor shot it down very solidly. His expert witness testified that no shots were audible on the 911 call tape until after Ellington had rammed the girls vehicle which was also audible on the tape. Best the defense could come up with was 'ya but, there could have been shots fired before that' (and Santa Clause might really exist, I suppose). Prosecutor claimed, and had witnesses, that Ellington was in a bad mood all day. Defense had one rebuttal witness that claimed he was in a good mood as shown by a conversation he had with him that afternoon where they were joking around. I can't believe the jury didn't believe him as he was a known jail bird with multiple offenses and was temporarily out of jail judging by his past record. I was hoping to hear what caused the road rage to begin with. All they put on the news was that the girls had flipped him off. Must have been after whatever it was they had done. My view on the case remains as it was in the beginning. Total stupidity on the part of all parties involved. Harry K |
