The eleventh bullet went through the deceased back,Pittsburgh Pirates Jung-ho Kang Jersey, piercing his lungs and exiting through the left arm pit.

Lawyer for the accused,Atlanta Braves Dansby Swanson Jersey, Hookumchand declined cross examination.The accused then elected to give an unsworn statement when the court related the three options afforded to the accused in his quest to explain his story in relation to the murder.Marshall first stated his full name and said that he did not know the star witness in the matter,Joaquin Benoit Jersey, who happens to be the brother of the deceased.This witness claimed to have witnessed the murder. Marshall continued that he had never associated with the star witness and that he had no knowledge of the crime against him. He concluded that no one knows him by the nick name “Deckie.”On Tuesday, the court visited the scene of the crime at Broad Street,Cleveland Indians Austin Jackson Jersey, Charlestown where the events were reenacted.
