Aguirre denied and was more concerned about the knife that he went inside to the station to pay for his gas and told the cashier Lopez to call the police. As Aguirre went into his van and drove off he noticed that the man with the knife had went in to the store and was struggling with the victim Lopez. Aguirre then pulled off the freeway and drove to a nearby bowling alley to ask a security guard to call the police. Aguirre returned 30 minutes later to the Shamrock gas station right when the police began arriving. Right when Aguirre arrived he began identifying Deluna as the man with the knife, except this time Deluna no longer had on a white shirt. Around the same time two other witnesses observed a hispanic man jogging east away from the Shamrock; in an untucked white dress shirt rolled up sleeves. Both witnessed that it was Deluna running away from the Shamrock gas station. Now it was in the hands of the witnesses and police officers on what information to rely on to catch the killer. Though the first witness “Baker” was face-to-face with the attacker he said that the killer had a mustache. However the last two witnesses that encountered the man jogging away from the gas station stated that the man had no beard or visible hair on the face. They described his face as “clean shaved.”

The first witness was identified as Decalle McGowan, Mother of Alphonos Jr, Tashima Johnson and fiance of Alphonso Johnson Sr, and the second as Sharifa Derry,sister of Alphons Johnson, Jr. Both witnesses claimed once they arrived to the location a large fight began, and both of them observed a black male go up to both of the victims and repeatedly strike both with what appear to be a hand knife several times. McGowan stated that she arrived at the scene along with her family, and she saw the unknown male walk to the rear of a car and then attack her family.The two female witnesses provided a written statement of the events. The statement provided by the females concurs in great part with all the other testimonies. Decalle McGowan was transported by police officers to a location where she was able to positively identify Lonnie Taylor as the person of interest in this

Speaking with Michael he reported the following; that Scott knocked on his door and immediately went out to the middle of the yard telling him to come outside he wanted to talk. Michael went to put on his shoes and asked Heather to call law enforcement, but she responded and said "there is no need, he just wants to talk to you". Michael proceeded to go towards Scott, who at this time was now near the road on his motorcycle. Michael advised me that Scott ran up to him and tackled him to the ground. Michael stated that punches were thrown and he was able to turn Scott around placing him in a choke hold, until Scott calmed down. Michael attempted to get up and Scott grabbed at his neck causing scratches. Michael admitted to kicking Scott in the head twice attempting to separate. Michael provided a witness statement which he did state he wanted to prosecute.

[I]n 2001, three young men robbed a McDonald’s restaurant in Milwaukee. 14-year-old Jerrell C.J. was arrested in connection with the offense, taken to the police station, booked, and placed in an interrogation room. In the room, Jerrell was handcuffed to a wall and left alone for approximately two hours. At 9 a.m., Police Detectives Ralph Spano and Kurt Sutter entered the interrogation room. The detectives introduced themselves, removed Jerrell’s handcuffs, and asked him some background questions. Jerrell stated that he was 14 years old and in the eighth grade. He also provided the names, addresses, and phone numbers of his parents and siblings. Jerrell was advised of his Miranda rights, and the detectives then began to question Jerrell about the armed robbery. Jerrell denied any involvement.

Christopher was identified in a crime line-up and two of the women-mother and sister of the rape victim was in court and identified Coleman as the offender. They didn’t find any physical evidence to show that Coleman committed this crime. The victim's mother told the prosecutor that she had know Coleman years earlier and she had not seen him recently, but recognized his voice and distinctive walk. Another sister told the court that she knew Christopher by the nickname “Fat” and that he had removed his mask during the crime when it was occurring. Nevertheless, these women had identified Coleman to responding during the grand jury hearing, and the other sister had incorrectly identified at least two other alleged

The court had reason that these facts, taken together, constitute evidence of presence at the scene, participation in a show of force, association, during the attack, and flight. This evidence also supports the inference that the Mace was sprayed to incapacitate Mr. Tucker, so as to allow Mr. Anderson and the others to leave the crime scene without restraint or further identification of the attacker or his vehicle. This evidence is fully sufficient to support the jury 's finding that Mr. Kobel was an accomplice in acting with Mr. Anderson with a common intent and purpose. As an accomplice, Mr. Kobel is guilty to the same extent that Mr. Anderson is guilty.

Agurs was heard by the United States Supreme Court in 1976. This case differed from others as it questioned whether or not prosecutors had to disclose the victim’s previous criminal history. This case involved a woman named Swells who was murdered with a knife by Agurs. During the trial, Agurs’s defense learned that Swells had a criminal history and mentioned for a new trial. The defense for Agru further believed that releasing Ms. Swell’s criminal history may have supported their argument that Mr. Agurs acted in self-defense. However, the district court denied this request. The case then went to the appeals court, which determined that not releasing Ms. Swell’s previous criminal history was an act of suppressing evidence (material) that may influence the jury. Despite this ruling, the United States Supreme Court ruled that the prosecutor in the district court was correct and that prosecutors did not have a duty to release a victim’s previous criminal

The case I chose to write on is based on a DVD that we watched in class called ‘Beaten by a hair’. In this case, a woman was reported missing after she went to work and never returned home. After the police discovered a bloody pillow case in the woods, near her house, they linked it to the missing pillow case in the woman’s room, and then realized that they had a murder case on their hands. A mystery in the case was that one of the local neighbors had mentioned seeing the woman leave through the front door of her house but the evidence says different, so investigators had to find out who left the house that morning. I am interested in this case because it was very intriguing how the forensic officers put all the pieces

On July 28th of 1984, Jennifer Thompson-Cannino, a 22-year-old college student and another woman was both brutally raped at knife point. During the attack, Thompson was attentive of her attacker’s appearance and anything else notable so if she survived the attack, she could assure the rapist would be caught and punished (prosecuted). Within a few days of the attack, the Burlington Police Department of North Carolina had determined a suspect through the composite Thompson made and arrested Ronald J. Cotton on August 1, of 1984. Thompson was able to identify Cotton under photo identification and then successfully chose him again in the physical line-up. The second victim, however did not chose Cotton in either of the lineups.
