Back for day 2... Cardell Hayes is now on the stand
quote:
Danny Monteverde @DCMonteverde
Hayes says he wants to speak to Smith's children and say he understands what they are going through.
quote:
Danny Monteverde @DCMonteverde
Hayes: "To not have Will around, to not have a father around, to not have a husband around -- I can only image."
quote:
Danny Monteverde? @DCMonteverde
Hayes: "I know what it's like to not have your father around."

Danny Monteverde @DCMonteverde
Hayes says that in jail, he often stands up for the Smith family. "I did what I feel was right. I stayed."
quote:
Danny Monteverde? @DCMonteverde
Hayes says he didn't know Racquel Smith was shot that night.
quote:
Danny Monteverde? @DCMonteverde
Hayes to Racquel Smith: "I never said negative things about your family. ...I would never take nothing from Will, what he did on the field."
quote:
Danny Monteverde? @DCMonteverde
Hayes: "I looked up to Will as a football player. ... I would never just purposefully take his life. I can't blame y'al for hating me."
quote:
Danny Monteverde? @DCMonteverde
Hayes to Smith family: there was nothing done that night on purpose. If he could do that night over again he would do it different.
quote:
Danny Monteverde @DCMonteverde
Hayes: "I'm not proud of it at all since I have to come up here in shackles like an animal."

Danny Monteverde @DCMonteverde
Hayes thanks Buras "for everything, for your professionalism, for the way you treated me."

Napoli asks Hayes how R. Smith got shot. "I never physically pointed my gun at Racquel and shot Racquel," Hayes says.
quote:
Danny Monteverde @DCMonteverde
Hayes maintains Smith got a gun and shot it. Napoli says no evidence indicates that. Hayes says that's what he believes.
quote:
Danny Monteverde? @DCMonteverde
Hayes: "That night I feared for my life."
quote:
Danny Monteverde? @DCMonteverde
Napoli asks if Hayes still feels justified firing seven shots into Smith's back.
Hayes, voice rising, says he didn't do that intentionally.
quote:
Danny Monteverde @DCMonteverde
Napoli: Who put the 7 bullets in his back?
Hayes: "I did." Notes he told police he was the gunman.
quote:
Danny Monteverde @DCMonteverde
"I did not stand over Will and pump shots into his back like you said," Hayes tells Napoli.

Hayes: "At the end of the day I'll still be looked at like a bad guy since a man died."
quote:
Danny Monteverde @DCMonteverde
Hayes: "If I didn't take responsibility for what happened ... I would've ran."
quote:
Danny Monteverde? @DCMonteverde
Hayes: When someone lets the police know they did something, that is taking responsibility.

Taking the stand now is Henry Jolly, a friend of Hayes.

man this whole case sucks.
i don't think Hayes is a bad guy, i think Smith probably ran his mouth, and i think Richard Hernandez & Whipple are white trash thug wannabes who helped get Smith killed.
there's nothing but shades of gray in this case. certainly no justice for anyone.

Rodrigue plays jail call in which Hayes is heard calling Racquel Smith "phony, phony, phony" with "all her bull shite."

ADA says Hayes was already given a break when he avoided the life sentence of a 2nd degree murder charge.

i like how indifferent you are with these updates
character witnesses matter on one side but not the other

BTW people on this board only cared about CSP & Racquel... that's why I posted more from those 2
I also uploaded all the tweets from when Hayes was on the stand
who cares about what his HS football coach or a random pastor says?
ETA: I hit the highlights
