) - Prosecutors tried and failed in 2017 to convict Quinterious Williams of attempted murder. On Tuesday, they got a conviction on charges that he made a second attempt on the same victim’s life.
Prosecutors presented evidence of both shootings at this week’s trial, including allegations that the 25-year-old defendant approached the victim on June 24, 2018, telling him: “Do you remember me? You thought you was going to get away with lying on me?” “He was very brave to come to court and testify and tell the jury what happened to him,” he said. “There were several witnesses that we could not get cooperation from. This was a retaliation case. So in a sense, that’s understandable, but our victim was extremely brave. And we, you know, we really need that kind of bravery down here at the courthouse for us to be able to do our job to hold these violent offenders accountable.
It is not uncommon for victims to express reluctance to testify. Blackwood said it is remarkable the victim in this case chose to testify a second time after getting sot again.
