Former ice cream truck driver Michael Keetley is facing a retrial for allegedly shooting six people on Thanksgiving 2010, killing two brothers, and injuring four others. Prosecutors allege Keetley was out for revenge after his ice cream truck was robbed for $12, but mistakenly targeted the wrong suspects. Keetley’s first trial in February 2020 resulted in a deadlocked jury. The former ice cream man is facing two first-degree murder charges and four counts of attempted murder.

Reason For Retrial: Defense attorney’s argued Keetley was too badly wounded from his own shooting, to carry-out the shooting in Ruskin that killed two people. Weak witness testimony led to a mistrial in 2020, after some state witnesses failed to identify Keetley as the shooter, identifying another man in a police mug shot packet. Defense witnesses were more exacting in their testimony, which led to a jury deadlock of 10 not guilty, 2 guilty, and eventually a mistrial.

  1. The photo six pack should be thrown out. OMG. This guy should be working with gangs still, or some type of immediate police duty, like crowd or traffic control. Murder investigation takes attention to detail, meticulously note taking, theoretical thinking and high problem solving skills. No loose ends. A good detective takes responsibility to arrest the right criminal and make it stick by the complete evidence that has been documented. Above board following best practices always.

  2. Who is ZZ Top and son? They both suited up today❤ They both have style, the boy’s hair and Pop’s beard—breezing

  3. He can't find the document for the Miranda rights. He LIED to a judge on the application for a search warrant. You are done sir. Hand in your badge and go home.

  4. Im so sick of hearing this defence lawyer speak, it hasn't mattered who he has been talking with, he is extremely rude and condescending.

    Is interesting seeing how much this coppa fkd up the case tho, surely the prosecutors must be sitting there saying.. ok so none of what we have means anything without a proper eyewitness to honestly identify the offender.. makes you wonder if there was a conspiracy within the community to hide what really happened 🤔

  5. Very skillful defense attorney, thorough and effective. He knew when to get a specific answer and each time it was jaw dropping. Shame on this LT & the prosecution.

  6. Why doesn't the prosecution ever object??!!! Geez 🤦‍♀️

  7. 6:31 ice cream man’s hand is fully extended and appears normal. He didn’t have to manually open it. I’d like to see an assessment of how much use and strength he actually has. Prosecution has established that he was physically capable but I’d still like to see Dr report.

  8. I would be finding out how involved with the gang Mr.Smith’s son was involved! There is something funny going on here!

  9. After seeing this investigation I’d be scared to death for anyone. This is horrendous!!!!! This Guy should be fired immediately and a total investigation of all the other cops involved in this . Total setup! Not Guilty

  10. So Escobar argues to the judge that he wasn't interrupting the prosecutor, the interrupts the judge to the point that the judge yells at him and takes a 5 min break. Lol clown

  11. I wish this lawyer would just ask the questions instead of all the story telling a vast story b4 questions that actually have SFA with this case. I have to fast forward half his cross its so repetitive

  12. I’ve never disliked a defense lawyer more. I swear I’d have to be excused from that jury so I didn’t leap up and attack the little weasel.

  13. Wow this detective didn’t do his job at all, he just doesn’t remember anything. Great work defense!

  14. I can’t lie the defense is doing a really good job of making this detective look really incompetent in his job and the investigation of this crime and his x’s clearly look like x’s and nothing like a 4

  15. IMO it doesn’t matter what had a 3, 4 or both… the witness signed the pict of Keetley & only Keetley. If he thought the real 3 or 4 that wasn’t Keetley, he would’ve signed that one. So to me, the "you changed the #'s to fit your tunnel vision" argument is just another shiny object. (Commenting during testimony so this may be addressed later)

  16. So many crime scene mistakes made as usual. There is no gun or clothing found. . Definitely think this shooting had to be gang related! They never found who shot Keetley. Did they even look hard enough? I highly doubt it.
