A jury on Thursday found a man not guilty of murder in the 2020 shooting of De’Varea Rashad Powell on Azalea Road.
Powell was at a birthday party at an apartment in June of that year. According to testimony, the victim had marijuana and money, and the perpetrators hatched a plan to rob him. Prosecutors alleged two gunmen shot him and then dumped the body in a wooded area off of Shelton Beach Road.“But the evidence wasn’t very convincing, apparently,” Deputy Public Defender Glenn Davidson said.
Caver testified in his own defense, denying the allegations. A prosecution witness testified that Rudolph was one of the shooters.Charges remain pending against a pair of co-defendants, Raquise Murphy and Gary Hudson.Download the FOX10 Weather App. Get life-saving severe weather warnings and alerts for your location no matter where you are.
