The MIT has a decent track record.
I can't understand why Atkinson did not convince Mr.Powell to hand over the gun if they have any kind of defense.
That decision changed Mr.Powell's life as he knows it even without a conviction.

50 year old man suh cayliss.. ?

Sumting nuh right yah suh... im have a son ?

[Rockman]

He has at least two sons,this is not the first or second time he killed someone.What may bolster your handle is his initial reported age was 37.
It is his gun that is suspect.

[Mosiah]

Is that the defence? They are going to try and confuse the jury that maybe it was one of the misbehaving sons that was driving and did the shooting?

[Rockman]

Sb angle(I think)

[Assasin]

could it be a big man under some serious drugs?

[Muadib]

Balla, do you believe me now that a licensed firearm holder can be charged with illegal possession of the licensed firearm? If you pull the firearm on a person without just cause then you are illegally possessing the firearm.

If they cannot place him at the murder scene then he can walk on most of these charges

[Muadib]

is who yuh ah call Balla ?

[Rockman]

Trying to figure out the position of the taxi when Mais informed its driver the X6 driver is coming anf he has a gun.Mais saw who killed him,not sure how much the taxi driver saw.
His gun,his vehicle,he has a history of using deadky force,he fled....

[Mosiah]

that "he" could be one of his sons. that might one of the defence strategies - prove who was behind the wheel at the time!

[Rockman]

Assuming the ]D parade(Atkinson is already seeing cracks...)was not used,they never should have mentioned it in the first place.
Failure to produce your fiream for inspection is a crime,the follow up is why.
He was charged in a timely manner,that is an auspicious beginning

@ Rockman

were there other people in the car beside Mais and the driver?

[Rockman]

I could have sworn I read, there were others,in the initial reports,heard nothing suggesting that since,Huntress.
