Murder
Attempted Murder. Defendant was charged with firing a sawed off shotgun at the victim from point blank range. The victim was shot in the leg and crippled. The issue in the case was identification. A close reading of the discovery suggested the existence of more police reports. A motion to produce resulted in the disclosure of several confidential informants and identification procedures, some of which excluded the defendant. Further, investigation of an important state witness revealed that she had just been charged in another county with stabbing an individual and had a lengthy prior record. When this information was ultimately assembled, it raised serious doubts about the accuracy of the identification and the guilt of the defendant.
Juvenile Crimes
Homicide
First Degree Intentional Homicide. Victim’s throat was slashed on a street corner. He suffered a laceration of the left internal jugular vein and a partial laceration of the common carotid artery. The victim had walked out on the defendant, his girlfriend, at a tavern that evening and had identified the defendant as his assailant. Identification was the issue. An alibi defense was presented along with expert testimony relating to the effects of blood alcohol on perception, memory, and recall.
