Jurors convicted Starr and his brother on September 22 of conspiring to kill Jason’s 36-year-old former wife, Sara Starr.
DOTHAN, Ala. - Convicted killer Jason Starr wants a judge to overturn his guilty verdict, claiming federal prosecutors failed to prove their case during his murder trial.
Jurors convicted Starr and his brother Darin on September 22 of conspiring to kill Jason’s 36-year-old former wife, Sara Starr. Attorney Jim Parkman claims they could not have rationally reached that conclusion, given the evidence. During the Starr brothers’ seven-day trial, prosecutors used law enforcement, forensics experts, and others to bolster their circumstantial case, but admitted they lacked physical evidence implicating the Starrs.
They told jurors that Jason Starr wanted his former wife dead so badly that he paid Darin to drive from his Texas home to Coffee County to kill Ms. Starr, shot twice at her rural home.
