Jury deliberates in Atkisson aggravated DUI trial
SUMMARY: In week two of the trial, prosecutors called rebuttal witness Shelby McCoy, who testified that Elijah Atkisson sent him $17 for marijuana, contrary to Atkisson’s claim that it was for club entry. Atkisson, the defense’s final witness, faced intense cross-examination by Assistant DA Sharon Spencer regarding contradictory statements about his alcohol consumption before a fatal October 3, 2020, crash that killed newscast director Marcel Walker. Atkisson admitted to lying to his mother. Tensions rose in court when defense attorney Marvin Sanders was briefly removed for disrupting the proceedings, though he was later allowed back. Jury instructions and closing arguments are next.
