Murder trial of Demack stalls after verdict motion
In a Bevar County murder case, the Demack trial for slaying Deputy Sheriff Mangold concluded Saturday with the judge overruling a defense request for an instructed acquittal. The state rested after presenting bloody clothing evidence, and the jury was kept overnight as defense and prosecution prepared final charges and arguments. Deputy Matthews testified to a field discovery of the shotgun. Demack admitted ownership but claimed innocence. The panel, including retiree W W Avey, will reconvene Monday for closing arguments.
