A Supreme Court jury yesterday cleared a man of attempted murder.
Prosecutors alleged that Rashad Paul, whose street name is "Eyes", shot Gregory Miller twice near a club on Nassau Street on December 12, 2012.
By the time the case came on for trial before Justice Indra Charles, Miller was murdered. He was shot dead at Cordeaux Avenue and Key West Street on April 20, 2013.
The Crown relied on a statement that Miller gave to police after the first shooting.
In the statement, Miller claimed that Paul whom he had known all his life shot him in the stomach and ankle at the Yardie Dance.
However, Paul's defense lawyer Ian Cargill relied on a sworn affidavit made by Miller in which he repudiated the statement.
According to the affidavit, which was used during Paul's bail hearing in the Supreme Court, he did not know who shot him and only named Paul because police told him to.
