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.

I've said it before. I'll say it again. Why can't the defendant get a suit for court? I think that's disrespectful.
SET MR ROGERS FREE
You don’t have to tell their employers! If they watch the trial, they will see it!! DING DONG!
Roger Dread, would you please tell me the technique of merely "looking"at someone and coming to the determination of guilt or innocence? You can save the need of judges and juries.
Does anyone know the out come of this retrail please
How can Michael Keetley afford, not 1, not 2, not 3…………but 5 lawyers to defend him?? Can anyone explain this?
Always my fav part. Debates outside the presence of the jury. Battle royale.
Why did Law & Crime change their camera angle. It's awkward. Oh well.
It's kind of nice to see a moment of levity at 1:38:24 in otherwise serious proceedings. Nice to remember that they're all people at the end of the day.
No alternates?
Is this one also on a verdict watch does anyone know
What are they doing?
Another great judge. He's paisan to me 😊😊ðŸ˜Å
What is happening?
R they at lunch??
15:45 Huh? 😳
I was watching Zacharias Anderson. Why is there no trial today?
I've been busy today and joined the trial a while ago. What's happening is it lunch again
54:10 The judge explains why they are not having court today…and the rest of the trial schedule.
Judge always oriented toward defense. He always looks at defense’s side when speaking. Not a good look!
