Second Michael Dunn murder trial begins Monday in Jacksonville
Updated: September 21, 2014 - 9:34am
Jacksonville attorney I. Mark Rubin once had a murder trial in Miami end in a hung jury where 11 jurors wanted to convict and one held out for acquittal.
When the case was retried his client, Betty Evers, was acquitted of killing her husband.
“It’s much easier to raise doubt when you know what’s coming,” Rubin said. “A retrial gives you a chance to tweak your strategy and fix what didn’t work the first time.”...
On Monday, Michael David Dunn, 47, will go on trial for the second time for the murder of 17-year-old Jordan Davis. The first jury deadlocked on his guilt while convicting him of three counts of attempted murder and one count of shooting or throwing a deadly missile. He faces at least 60 years in prison for those convictions, and he could get life without the possibility of parole if convicted of Davis’ murder.
Dunn is accused of killing Davis at a Southside Gate gas station in November 2012 while in town for his son’s wedding.
Dunn fired at Davis and three of his friends after parking next to their Dodge Durango sport-utility vehicle and getting into a dispute. He maintains he was threatened and saw a gun, so he defended himself. Only Davis was hit and killed.
No witnesses could corroborate that it looked like Davis may have had a gun.
While Rubin believes the second trial benefited him, reaction was split among other lawyers who have tried cases multiple times.
Prosecutors and attorneys for Dunn declined to comment for this story.
NEW LAWYERS
Dunn will head into the retrial with new lawyers. Corey Strolla, who was hired by Dunn’s parents, withdrew from the case after the family ran out of money following the first trial.
Circuit Judge Russell Healey has appointed the Office of Regional Conflict Counsel to represent Dunn, and three lawyers working for it — Waffa Hanania, Janet Abel and Kevin Carlisle — will handle the case with Hanania serving as the lead attorney.
State Attorney Angela Corey once again will prosecute Dunn with the same two assistant state attorneys, John Guy and Erin Wolfson.
Orlando attorney and CNN legal analyst Mark O’Mara, who defended George Zimmerman against Corey’s office, said the new defense lawyers could mean the second trial will be very different from the first
