A judge has temporarily granted youthful offender status to capital murder suspect Michael Davis, making his case confidential for at least the next two months.
One of the most enigmatic figures in a deadly shooting on the Tuscaloosa Strip has been subpoenaed to appear in court later this month, which could shed light on pivotal aspects of the case.
Don Hartley: "But instead of reveling in the aura of the winningest season in Alabama Men’s Basketball history, [Miller] is hounded by one night’s lack of good judgement."
During the preliminary hearing in the capital murder case against Darius Miles and Michael Davis, Davis's attorney claimed the victim's boyfriend fired a weapon first, causing him to act in self-defense.
Former Bama basketball player Darius Miles will remain in the Tuscaloosa County Jail for at least a few more weeks after a judge rescheduled his first court hearing.
A Tuscaloosa lawyer responded on behalf of Darius Miles, who said her client was "unaware" of statements released on his behalf from a Birmingham law group earlier this week.
