    Capital murder trial: Forensics experts testify


    By Tom Smith
    The Times Daily

    TUSCUMBIA — Forensics experts testified Monday the bullets that killed Ki-Jana Freeman were fired by a SKS rifle.

    Nicholas Drake, a firearm’s expert with the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences said he examined an SKS rifle, along with bullets recovered during the autopsy on Freeman, and shell casings found at the scene of the shooting.

    He testified the bullets and the 15 shell casings found at the scene were all fired from the same SKS rifle.

    The testimony came as Benjamin Young's capital murder trial continued Monday.

    Young, 30, 502 Staunton Ave., Florence, is on trial for capital murder, first-degree assault and shooting into an occupied vehicle.

    He is accused in the March 1, 2016, shooting death of Freeman, 19, of Tuscumbia. Tyler Blythe, who was 17 at the time, was injured in the shooting.

    Previous testimony indicated at least 15 bullets were shot into Freeman's Ford Mustang the night he was shot on March 1, 2016, outside Spring Creek Apartments.

    Tuscumbia police detective Sgt. Wes Holland testified 15, 7.62-caliber rifle shell casings were collected from the parking lot outside the victim’s car. He said more than a dozen shots hit the car.

    During testimony last week, witnesses said the shooting was a gang-related retaliation after a member’s house in Muscle Shoals was broken into and several items taken.

    Witnesses identified Thomas Hubbard, Peter Capote, Young, and Riley “Trey” Hamm III as all high-ranking members in the gang. Testimony indicated it was believed Freeman was involved in the burglary of Hubbard’s house on Feb. 28.

    Hubbard and Capote have both been charged with capital murder, first-degree assault and shooting into an occupied vehicle.

    Hamm is charged with murder and hindering prosecution.

    Austin Hammonds and Da’Vonta Bates, two members of the gang, testified last week that Hubbard owned a SKS semiautomatic rifle that fired 7.62-caliber ammunition, a 45-caliber pistol and a .22-caliber revolver.

    Dr. Valerie Green, a state medical examiner, testified Monday that Freeman was shot eight times.

    She said Freeman died from “multiple” gunshot wounds and the manner of death was “homicide.”

    DNA specialist, Angelia Fletcher testified Monday that DNA from Young and Capoe were found on items inside a truck that they were supposed to be in at the time of the shooting,

    Fletcher testified that Young’s DNA was found on a soda can inside the truck and Capoe’s was found on a cigarette butt.

    Last week, Young’s former girlfriend, Megan Bryant, testified they all had ridden in the truck at times and that Young had drank sodas in the truck.

    Courthouse officials said due to sickness of a witness, the trial will not continue until Wednesday at 9 a.m. in Colbert County Circuit Judge Hal Hughston’s courtroom.

    Young found guilty of capital murder, other charges in Tuscumbia shooting


    By Tom Smith
    The Times Daily

    TUSCUMBIA — A Colbert County jury found Benjamin Young guilty of capital murder Wednesday and returns to the courtroom today for the sentencing phase of the trial.

    Young, 30, 502 Staunton Ave., Florence, also was found guilty of first-degree assault and shooting into an occupied vehicle.

    Young is accused in the March 1, 2016, shooting death of Ki-Jana Freeman, 19, of Tuscumbia. Tyler Blythe, who was 17 at the time, was injured in the shooting.

    The shooting took place while Freeman and Blythe were sitting in Freeman’s car in the parking lot of Spring Creek Apartments in Tuscumbia.

    The jury deliberated less than two hours Wednesday afternoon before reaching the verdicts.

    Chief Assistant Colbert County District Attorney Kyle Brown, who prosecuted the case with Assistant District Attorney Angela Hulsey, has said the state will seek the death penalty.

    If someone is found guilty of capital murder in Alabama, the jury recommends the sentence but the ultimate decision remains with the judge – in this case, Presiding Colbert County Circuit Court Judge Hal Hughston Jr.

    The two possible sentences for someone convicted of capital murder are the death penalty or life in prison without the possibility of parole.

    Brown did not comment after Wednesday's verdict since the sentencing phase remains. That begins at 9 a.m. today in Hughston's courtroom.

    Colbert County District Attorney Bryce Graham Jr. lauded the work Brown, Hulsey and Tuscumbia police did in the case.

    "I'm proud of the hard work of the Tuscumbia Police Department, Kyle and Angela, who worked tirelessly on this case," Graham said. "I thank the jury for the verdict."

    B.T. Gardner, who, along with Nathan Johnson and Leann Landers, make up Young's defense, also was complimentary of the jury.

    "I feel like the jury has given fair consideration to all evidence in the case," Gardner said. "They had a tough job."

    Young sat with his chin propped on his right hand while the verdicts were read and showed no emotion throughout and after the process.

    There was no evidence nor testimony presented during Wednesday’s hearing.

    The state rested its case after Hughston granted a motion to keep a cellphone claimed to be Young’s out of evidence. The defense rested its case without putting forth any evidence or testimony.

    During closings Gardner stressed that prosecutors had not put their clients at the scene except by testimony from witnesses who were not “creditable.”

    “You can discount the testimony of these questionable witnesses,” Gardner told the jury. “It is critical that you don’t get confused in regards to the burden of proof.

    “The state has to convince you beyond all reasonable doubts. I don’t believe that has happened.”

    Husley told jurors that Young should be held accountable for what happened to Freeman and Blythe.

    “He is accountable for the behavior of another. He’s guilty if he assisted to help another person commit the crime,” Hulsey said.

    During testimony last week, witnesses said the shooting was a gang-related retaliation after a member’s house in Muscle Shoals was broken into and several items taken.

    Witnesses identified Thomas Hubbard, Peter Capote, Young, and Riley “Trey” Hamm III as all high-ranking members in the gang. Testimony indicated it was believed Freeman was involved in the burglary of Hubbard’s house on Feb. 28.

    Hubbard and Capote have both been charged with capital murder, first-degree assault and shooting into an occupied vehicle.

    Hamm is charged with murder and hindering prosecution.

    Austin Hammonds and Da’Vonta Bates, two members of the gang, testified last week that Hubbard owned a SKS semiautomatic rifle that fired 7.62-caliber ammunition, a 45-caliber pistol and a .22-caliber revolver.

    Brown said capital murder is intentional murder.

    “When you fire 15 rounds, you intend to kill,” he said. “All of this because someone broke into Thomas Hubbard’s house and stole an Xbox, and they believed it was Freeman.

    “They set a trap for (Freeman). They laid in wait and they struck,” Brown said. “The evidence of guilt is overwhelming.”

    5th suspect indicted in payback slaying of Shoals teen

    By Ashley Remkus
    AL.com

    A fifth suspect has been indicted in the payback killing of Ki-Jana Freeman, a Tuscumbia teenager who was gunned down two years ago.

    Riley Earl Hamm III is indicted for capital murder, murder, first-degree assault and hindering prosecution, Colbert County Jail records show. The 30-year-old was indicted earlier this week by a Colbert County grand jury, said Assistant District Attorney Kyle Brown. Hamm is jailed without bail.

    Two suspects already have been convicted in the killing. Along with Hamm, Peter Capote and Thomas Hubbard are awaiting trial.

    Hamm first was arrested this year after re-interviews of witnesses gave police enough evidence to make a case. Chief Tony Logan told AL.com's Anna Beahm that Hamm had been a person of interest since the early days of the investigation.

    Freeman was killed March 1, 2016 as he sat in a 17-year-old friend's Mustang outside Spring Creek Apartments. The friend was injured in the shooting.

    Authorities have said the suspects arranged to either buy or sell an Xbox to Freeman, but the transaction was a setup. The suspects believed Freeman and another man had stolen an XBox and TV two days earlier in a burglary.

    De'Vontae Bernard Bates pleaded guilty last year to criminal conspiracy and has agreed to testify about the plan to kill Freeman. Benjamin Young was convicted last month of capital murder, and the jury voted to impose the death penalty. A formal sentencing hearing is set for March 15.

    A man who had initially agreed to participate in the setup told investigators that one plan involved kidnapping Freeman, taking him to a separate location and torturing him before killing him. The man said he ultimately decided he couldn't go through with the plot, although he got in touch with Freeman about meeting to buy the XBox.

    Colbert man indicted for capital murder

    By Tom Smith
    The Times Daily

    TUSCUMBIA — Officials say charges have been upgraded against a man originally charged with murder in connection with the 2016 shooting death of a Tuscumbia man outside an apartment complex.

    A Colbert County grand jury has indicted Riley Earl (Trey) Hamm III, 30, for capital murder, first-degree hindering prosecution, felony murder and first-degree assault.

    The indictment was issued during the March term of the grand jury.

    Tuscumbia police arrested Hamm in January. He was charged with murder and hindering prosecution in connection with the shooting that killed Ki-Jana Freeman, 19, and injured Tyler Blythe, who was 17 at the time.

    Detective Capt. Stuart Setliff said once the case against Hamm was completed, it was turned over to the Colbert County District Attorney’s Office and presented to the grand jury.

    “The grand jury upgraded the charges and added a couple,” Setliff said.

    Police Chief Tony Logan said the shooting took place March 1, 2016, outside Spring Creek Apartments on Avenue A in Tuscumbia. Police said the shooting was captured on security video at the apartment complex.

    Freeman died at Helen Keller Hospital in Sheffield. Blythe was treated for numerous gunshot wounds.

    Benjamin Young, 30, 502 Staunton Ave., Florence; Thomas Hubbard, 33, 1100 Midland Ave., Muscle Shoals; and Peter Capote, 24, same address, have all been indicted on charges of capital murder, first-degree assault, and shooting into an occupied vehicle.

    Young was found guilty Feb. 7 of capital murder and last week was sentenced to death.

    In October, De’Vonta Bates, 21, 106 Market Ave., Muscle Shoals, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit murder. He is scheduled to be sentenced in March. The district attorney’s office recommended a 20-year sentence.

    Police said Hamm’s name came up early in the investigation. New information and evidence put him at the scene, and he is reported to have been in an active role at the time of the shooting.

    The indictment also points out that Hamm is accused of “burning clothing” worn by others who were involved in the shooting.

    Testimony during Young’s trial indicate that Hubbard is the person who orchestrated the shooting.

    During testimony in Young's trial, witnesses said the shooting was a gang-related retaliation after a member's house in Muscle Shoals was broken into and several items taken.

    Witnesses identified Hubbard, Capote, Young, and Hamm as high-ranking members in the gang.

    Hamm is being held in the county jail on bail of $100,000.

    He is scheduled to be arraigned April 12 by Colbert County Circuit Judge Jackie Hatcher.

    JURORS HEAR TESTIMONY IN PETER CAPOTE TRIAL

    By Waay News

    Tuesday, prosecutors started laying out their case against a Shoals man accused of murdering a teen over an x-box in Colbert County.

    Peter Capote is one of five men charged in the 2016 murder of Kijana Freeman.

    Jurors heard opening statements in the case along with testimony from the first Tuscumbia police officers on scene. The Colbert County District Attorney's office is seeking the death penalty for Capote.

    Peter Capote along with Thomas Hubbard, Benjamin Young, De'Vontae Bates, and Riley Hamm are all charged in connection with Freeman's death.

    Tuscumbia police believe the group lured Freeman and a friend to Spring Creek Apartments and shot Freeman to death and injured his teenage passenger. Police said this was all over an x-box, the suspects thought freeman stole, which ended up not being true.

    Police called Freeman's murder senseless. In February, a jury found Young guilty of capital murder. He was sentenced to death for his role in Freeman's murder.

    Capote's trial is expected to last all week. Hubbard's trial is expected to start this June. Bates plead guilty to lesser charges in 2017.

    TUSCUMBIA — Tuscumbia police detective Sgt. Wes Holland said Peter Capote was identified as one of the men who shot the car that Ki-Jana Freeman was in when he was killed March 1, 2016.

    During testimony this morning, Holland told jurors that after viewing a surveillance video taken in the parking lot of Spring Creek Apartments from the night of the shooting, Dewayne Austin Hammonds and De'Vonate Bates, said the shooters were "Benjamin "BK" Young and Peter "Goofy" Capote.

    "They said Young was the driver of the truck and Capote was in the front passenger seat," Holland testified.

    Both Hammonds and Bates are expected to testify in Capote's capital murder trial, which is in the second day of testimony.

    Capote is one of four people charged in the 2016 shooting that killed Freeman, 19, and injured Tyler Blythe, who was 17 at the time.

    Capote, Thomas Hubbard, Young and Riley Hamm III have all been charged with capital murder. Bates was arrested and charged with conspiracy to commit murder.

    Young was convicted of capital murder and sentenced to death in February.

    Freeman was "lured" to complex

    By Tom Smith
    The Times Daily

    TUSCUMBIA — De’Vonate Bates said he was with other members of the Almighty Imperial Gang when plans were made to kill the person Thomas Hubbard thought broke into his house and stole items, including an Xbox.

    Bates said members of the gang were at Hubbard’s house in Muscle Shoals on March 1, 2016, when the discussion was held. Bates said Hubbard, who goes by “Silent,” is head of the gang.

    He said Hubbard told the members he wanted to find out who broke into his house, and then he was “going to kill them.”

    Bates said a plan was developed, and Benjamin “B.K.” Young, Peter “Goofy” Capote, Hubbard and Riley “Trey” Hamm III left Hubbard’s house to meet and “kill” the person they thought was responsible.

    Bates’ testimony came Wednesday during the second day of Capote's capital murder trial.

    Capote is one of four people charged in the 2016 shooting that killed Freeman, 19, and injured Tyler Blythe, who was 17 at the time.

    Capote, Hubbard, Young and Hamm have all been charged with capital murder.

    Bates was arrested and charged with conspiracy to commit murder. He has pleaded guilty to the charge and is awaiting sentencing.

    In February, Young was convicted in of capital murder and was sentenced to death.

    Bates said the stolen Xbox belonged to gang member Dewayne Austin Hammonds, who had left it at Hubbard’s house on Midland Avenue in Muscle Shoals. The house was broken into Feb. 28, 2016, while Hubbard and others were at his grandmother’s funeral.

    He said Hammonds saw on Facebook that Ki-Jana Freeman had a Xbox for sale, and they thought it might be the one that was stolen.

    “Austin was supposed to check it out, but he had to go to work. I knew (Freeman) through Austin, so it was my job to text (Freeman) and get him to meet somewhere,” Bates said. “It was my idea to lure him to meet at Spring Creek Apartments to sell drugs.”

    A short time after Freeman arrived at the apartment complex, he was shot and killed.

    Bates said when the four men left the Muscle Shoals residence, they were in a white Dodge four-door truck and Young was driving, Capote was in the passenger front seat. Hubbard was in the back behind the driver, and Hamm was behind the passenger.

    Tuscumbia police detective Sgt. Wes Holland said Capote was identified as one of the shooters after viewing a surveillance video taken in the parking lot of Spring Creek Apartments.

    He said Bates and Hammonds said the shooters were "B.K." (Young) and "Goofy" (Capote).

    Holland testified that after Bates was developed as a possible suspect, he gave law enforcement a couple of false statements.

    With Bates on the witness said, Captoe’s defense team of Robert Graham and Bill Marthaler tried to discredit Bates’ testimony.

    “Would you lie to keep from being charged with murder and a life sentence?” Graham asked Bates.

    “No,” he said.

    “You lied to the police over, over and over,” Graham said.

    “Yes,” Bates admitted.

    “But as the investigation went on, you were able to collaborate the last statement that Bates gave you?” Chief Assistant District Attorney Kyle Brown asked Holland.

    “Yes,” he said.

    The trial continues today.

    Tuscumbia capital murder trial of Peter Capote could conclude on Tuesday

    By Carter Watkins
    whnt.com

    TUSCUMBIA, Ala. – The second man to stand trial for the murder of a Tuscumbia teenager could learn his fate on Tuesday. After four days of testimony, the Colbert County jury hearing the case against Peter Capote is ready for closing arguments and deliberation.

    Those who have sat through the trial over the last week say it’s been very similar to the trial of Benjamin Young. Young was convicted of capital murder in February for his part in the murder of Kijana Freeman.

    Prosecutors have said Capote and Young were the shooters in the ambush which took place at Spring Creek Apartments on March 1, 2016.

    On Friday, prosecutors called a cellmate of Thomas Hubbard to the stand. Hubbard is thought to be the mastermind behind the ambush. According to the inmate, not long after Hubbard and Capote were arrested, they began talking about Freeman’s murder. In a note passed between the two, Capote admitted to killing the Tuscumbia teenager. In testimony, the inmate said Capote told Hubbard that he would take the charge, so Hubbard could take care of his wife and child.

    According to police investigators working the case, Hubbard was under the impression Kijana Freeman had broken into his home and stolen an Xbox.

    The jury hearing the case could begin their deliberations mid-morning on Tuesday. If convicted, Peter Capote faces the death penalty.

    The capital murder trial of Thomas Hubbard is set on the June trial docket in Colbert County. Riley Hamm, the fourth man charged with capital murder in the case, is set for arraignment in August.
