(Promiscuous miscegenous black) Murder suspect's (white) ex-girlfriends testify
     KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- On the fourth day in court for Norman Clark, the jury heard from several of Clark's ex-girlfriends. Clark is accused of killing his estranged girlfriend, Brittany Eldridge and her unborn son, Zeke. Eldridge was found in her Knoxville apartment, laying in a pool of blood in December 2011. DNA evidence does prove that Clark was the father of Eldridge's baby. The judge had to dismiss the jury and tell the two to behave. Tory Hurst, one of Clark's ex-girlfriends, worked with both Clark and Eldridge. She admitted she was having a sexual relationship with Clark during Eldridge's pregnancy. She said Clark accused Eldridge of saying bad things about him, claiming the child was his and ruining his life. Hurst said Clark denied the child was his. She said Eldridge compared her relationship with Clark similar to the one in the movie "Knocked Up." One woman dated Clark on and off for nine years. The only child she says she knew about was a daughter Clark had a few years ago. She said she didn't have a completely exclusive relationship with Clark. - (Black-on-white) |

(Black) Man arrested in 2005 Phoenix saloon murder (of White man)
  A man was arrested Wednesday in a murder that occurred a decade ago, authorities say. The man, Jerrold Micah Burnett, 39, was arrested on one count of armed robbery and one count of first-degree murder stemming from an incident that occurred July 1, 2005, court documents say. Police say Burnett shot 29-year-old Chad Cassidy outside Wild Bill's Saloon in Phoenix. Cassidy and a friend, identified as Henry Hiter, were leaving the saloon when they were approached by two armed men. After the armed men demanded money, Cassidy was shot, but Hiter was able to get away, police say. When police arrived on scene, they found Cassidy dead in the parking lot. He suffered a gunshot wound to the head. Police say they found DNA on a cigarette butt at the scene and matched the DNA to Burnett. Police say the DNA was also connected to a July 25, 2005, robbery and murder case out of Mesa, in which a man was found dead of a gunshot wound in a motel parking lot. Burnett served 3.5 years in prison for a 2006 aggravated assault and 1.5 years in a 2001 drug case, court documents say. - (Black-on-white) |

Plea deal in Elyria murder case upsets defendant, family
  ELYRIA — Brady Phillips was not happy with his plea deal Monday, cursing in court and insulting a prosecutor, but he still went through with a deal that calls for him to serve 14 years in prison for his role in a botched 2009 robbery that left two men dead. Phillips, 44, has long insisted he shouldn’t be facing murder charges for deaths of Hermino Serrano and Michael Stump, who were killed after Serrano and Phillips forced their way into Stump’s David Drive apartment Dec. 20, 2009. The pair had planned to rob Stump of cash and prenoscription drugs that they thought were in a safe there. According to Elyria police, Serrano pistol-whipped Stump and, during the ensuing struggle, shot him in the head. David McDonough, who was in the apartment when the robbery began, managed to get a gun and shoot Serrano. McDonough was shot in the stomach but survived. During the gunfight, Phillips and others in the apartment fled, but Phillips was arrested within days of the killings and charged with murder. Although Phillips didn’t actually kill anyone, he faced felony murder charges because he was involved in criminal conduct that led to a killing. - (Black-on-white) |

(Black) Man sentenced to death by lethal injection for murder of two White men at auto parts store
   BATON ROUGE, LA - After being found guilty for a 2011 double murder at an auto parts store in Baton Rouge, a judge has sentenced Lee Turner, Jr. to death by lethal injection. Turner and his attorney were in court Monday and filed a motion for a new trial. The motion for a new trial was denied and the sentencing phase continued. "In my opinion, based on what this person did, this is the only appropriate, just decision," said East Baton Rouge District Attorney Hillar Moore. In May, Turner was found guilty of two counts of first-degree murder in the shooting deaths of two men during a robbery at CarQuest Auto Parts on Airline Highway in 2011. A few days later, a jury recommended he be sentenced to death. "This defendant has never accepted responsibility, never reached out whatsoever to this office or the victims’ families and now seeks again to blame everyone else for his behavior, which is completely unacceptable," Moore said. Edward Gurtner, 43, and Randy Chaney, 54, were found dead in a back room of the store on March 27, 2011. Both were helping out at the store, but worked at other CarQuest locations. Coming out of court Monday, members of Gurtner’s family described the last four years as very long. "We all miss him tremendously, we always will," said Gurtner’s step-father Nick Dunman. "I don’t know if we ever will have closure, but we will start healing now." - (Black-on-white) |
