🚨ANOTHER NOT GUILTY!🚨

Carlos Hilliard Jr was charged with First Degree Murder regarding a 2023 club shooting with another co-defendant. That co-defendant later confessed to the shooting and plead guilty to manslaughter. Despite this, the State persisted in prosecuting Carlos for murder. Trusting his lawyers with his case, Carlos chose to go to trial. The jury found him not guilty in about 2hrs.

Enjoyed having Hinds County based attorney Sharon Spencer at the table with me on this one, and we look forward to future collaborations with her. Atty Spencer will continue to do big things so y’all keep an eye out.

This week’s trial marks our second first-degree murder trial in as many weeks. Last week’s trial ended with a hung jury after 4 days.
