The witness, a childhood friend of the defendant, testified that she advised him to turn himself in after the shooting.

The witness also mentioned her concerns about retaliation and her struggles with drug use and mental health issues. The article highlights the detective’s testimony regarding the investigation and physical evidence recovered from the scene. Footage of a person identified as Edmunds was discovered, with still-images aiding in confirming the shooter’s identity. During cross-examination, Rollins argued that the investigation remains incomplete, highlighting the detective’s failure to identify two women present during the shooting. Prosecutors brought in a friend of Edmunds, captured on surveillance at the liquor store and present at the scene before the incident. The friend, acquainted with Edmunds since 2018, testified about their occasional drinking outings. He identified individuals in the store footage, including himself and Edmunds, clarifying their movements afterward. Despite not recalling specifics, he mentioned the victim having a bad day.

The footage showed a group of individuals, including Edmunds, enter the store before the shooting, with Edmunds holding what appeared to be a long gun. The detective testified that the footage showed the group leaving the store after the shooting, with Edmunds holding the same item.
During cross-examination, Rollins questioned the detective regarding the lack of fingerprints found on the shotgun wadding, to which the detective responded that it was not uncommon for prints to not be present due to the nature of the item.
The trial is ongoing, with Edmunds maintaining his innocence. The prosecution is expected to call additional witnesses and present further evidence in the coming days.
Edmunds faces the possibility of significant prison time if convicted on all charges. The victim of the shooting continues to recover from their injuries.
