Verdict Overruled Over Gun Demonstration At Trial

The New York Appellate Division reversed a weapons conviction of a Syracuse gang leader Williams after evidence showed Assistant District Attorney Menken displayed a sawed off shotgun during opening statements. Justices said such conduct prejudiced the jury since concealability was key, though Williams remains jailed on a 20 years to life term for a 1979 murder. A separate Rochester reversal ordered a new trial for Jon Thomas Jr after a juror was sent home, and a man named James Hunter’s voluntary plea to second degree manslaughter was upheld with him serving a three to six year sentence.
