Both sides of the capital murder trial of Larry Woodruffe rested Thursday. Meanwhile, the 7-year-old's dad is unconvinced Woodruffe is Jazmine's killer.
HOUSTON, Texas -- A trial over three years in the making will enter closing arguments Friday as both sides rested their case in the capital murder of 7-year-old Jazmine Barnes.
The description came from Jazmine's sisters who claimed to have seen the gunman. They told police at the time, their mom, who was driving the car, had gotten in a fight with the white man at a store. Cantrell took his own life inside his cell at the Montgomery County Jail in July 2019, after officials said he and his family were receiving death threats.
Black, who is awaiting sentencing, recalled going to church when he found out an innocent little girl was the one shot and killed, and not the men he was targeting. The men switched out of the Cadillac they were in, because the car was under Black's father's name and switched into his mother's rental car, which was a silver Kia Sportage.
It wasn't until he saw on the news it was a little girl that was the one killed. Nervous and feeling guilty, Black said he went to church, something he didn't regularly do.
