Accused murderer testifies in Warren County case
Ray Black testified he shot and killed Matthew Jones on November 12 after Jones threatened him. He described Jones as a muscular, karate-practicing man who had anger and intent to harm, and said he fired to stop the danger rather than kill. Black recounted the sequence from a construction site to Marcum's residence and the confrontation over a gun.
