Callaroga Shark Media. This is Celebrity Trials, your daily dose
2
00:00:12.919 --> 00:00:17.199
of courtroom drama. I'm Red Carter Tuesday, October twenty eighth,
3
00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:19.800
and we've got trial updates from two cases we've been
4
00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:24.120
following closely. In Tampa, testimony continues in the murder trial
5
00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:28.160
of Juliofulio, the Jacksonville rapper gunned down outside a hotel
6
00:00:28.239 --> 00:00:31.359
during his birthday celebration. And in New Hampshire, a marine
7
00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:34.159
veteran who shot his girlfriend and triggered an amber alert
8
00:00:34.240 --> 00:00:36.640
has taken the stand in his own defense, and his
9
00:00:36.759 --> 00:00:40.439
testimony is as disturbing as it is revealing two trials,
10
00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:44.359
two very different stories about violence, control, and what happens
11
00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:52.039
when relationships turn deadly. Let's get into it first up
12
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:56.240
Florida versus Alicia Andrews and the murder of rapper Juliofulio.
13
00:00:56.799 --> 00:00:59.880
We're now three days into testimony and this case is
14
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:03.320
everything you'd expect from a gang war turned courtroom drama.
15
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:06.920
Alicia Andrews, twenty two years old, is the first of
16
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:10.480
five defendants to stand trial for the June twenty twenty
17
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:15.159
four murder of Charles Jones, better known as Julio folio
18
00:01:16.280 --> 00:01:19.480
Quick recap for anyone just tuning in. Fulio was a
19
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:23.599
Jacksonville rapper, twenty six years old, documented member of the
20
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:27.680
Gang six Block, long standing beef with rival gangs at
21
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:32.359
k AND twelve hundred. On June twenty third, twenty twenty four,
22
00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:35.920
he was in Tampa celebrating his birthday. Made it to
23
00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:39.920
twenty six, didn't make it to twenty seven. Prosecutors say
24
00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:43.519
Andrews wasn't in a gang herself, but her boyfriend Isaiah
25
00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:47.959
Chance was atk AND on that June weekend. She allegedly
26
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:51.959
helped orchestrate the hit that ended Fulio's life. Here's what
27
00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:56.359
we learned this week. Opening statements painted two very different pictures.
28
00:01:56.879 --> 00:02:01.079
Prosecutor Scott Harmon told jurors the accused killer unleashed a
29
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:06.040
hellish onslaught On folio said Andrew's coordinated travel and lodging
30
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:10.120
that laid the groundwork for a calculated ambush. She allegedly
31
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:13.439
sent a message Friday night asking Hey, could I book
32
00:02:13.479 --> 00:02:18.919
an Airbnb in Tampa. That message, prosecutors say, was the
33
00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:22.639
first move in a deadly chain of events. Then came
34
00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:27.080
the cell phone data. Investigators tracked Andrews and Chance as
35
00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:30.400
they drove roughly two hundred miles from Jacksonville to Tampa.
36
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:34.360
Their cell phones are tracking hitting towers as they travel
37
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:37.000
in Unison all the way down I seventy five, heading
38
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:41.520
directly into Tampa. Prosecutors told the jury the prosecution's theory.
39
00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:45.319
Andrews and Chance acted as lookouts, tracking Fulio to two
40
00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:48.319
nightclubs before he ended up at a hotel. The three
41
00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:52.800
alleged shooters, Rashad Murphy, Davy and Murphy and Sean Gathwright,
42
00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:55.240
got out of their car and opened fire in the
43
00:02:55.280 --> 00:03:00.240
hotel parking lot. Folio died three others were injured. Defence,
44
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:04.120
they want you to know about domestic violence. Andrews's attorney
45
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:06.719
tried to introduce evidence that she was being abused by
46
00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:10.280
her boyfriend Isaiah Chance, that she was scared of him,
47
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:14.919
that she wasn't making these decisions freely. Problem Judge Michelle
48
00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:18.240
Cisco already ruled that domestic violence can't be used as
49
00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:22.360
a defense. Florida law is very clear. If you're charged
50
00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:27.159
with premeditated first degree murder, you can't claim duress. Doesn't matter.
51
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:30.439
If your boyfriend was abusive, doesn't matter, if you were scared.
52
00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:33.439
Under the law, that's not a defense. To planning and
53
00:03:33.479 --> 00:03:36.080
executing a murder. So what did we hear this week?
54
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:41.759
State witness eighteen, identity protected for safety reasons, testified Thursday
55
00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:45.000
that she'd known Andrews for more than a decade, once
56
00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:48.400
considered her one of her best friends. Said Andrews was
57
00:03:48.479 --> 00:03:51.719
dating Isaiah Chance for two to three years before the murder,
58
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:55.599
knew he was affiliated with at K. Then came the
59
00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:59.439
text messages from January twenty twenty one, three years before
60
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:02.960
the murder. Andrews and this friend were discussing the ongoing
61
00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:06.759
gang war, talked about how people like Fulio recruit people
62
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:10.199
willing to die for them, and in those messages, Andrews
63
00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:14.960
expressed exactly how she felt about Juliofulio direct quote, he
64
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:18.720
need to die three and a half years before he
65
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:23.040
was murdered in Tampa. Defense tried to minimize this, pointed
66
00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:26.480
out there was no coded gang language, no specific murder
67
00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:30.240
plans in those texts acknowledged that many people mentioned in
68
00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:34.639
their conversations had died from gang violence, emphasizing that Folio
69
00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:38.399
had many enemies. But that text is now burned into
70
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:42.560
the jury's mind. He need to die. And then three
71
00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:46.160
and a half years later, prosecutors say Andrews helped make
72
00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.560
it happen. We also heard from Tampa Police. Detective David
73
00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:54.519
Alverson testified about the investigation how officers responded to the
74
00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:57.920
home two suites after reports of a shooting, found pistol
75
00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:01.680
shell casings near the carport, located Fulio's body inside a
76
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:05.720
Hyundai in the parking lot. University of South Florida police
77
00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:09.720
officer Michael Fusco testified that around four forty two am,
78
00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:13.040
while on a traffic stop, a vehicle pulled up reporting
79
00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:16.920
the shooting. That's how fast words spread. Then there's the aftermath.
80
00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:21.160
Andrew's co defendants fled the scene. One of them drove
81
00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:24.600
to his grandmother's house in Auburndale, Polk County, asked to
82
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:27.680
borrow her Tan SUV for his power washing business because
83
00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:29.680
it was difficult to get equipment in and out of
84
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:33.040
the black car. He was driving. That black car a
85
00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:36.800
Chevy Impala that Tampa Police had already flagged. An officer
86
00:05:36.839 --> 00:05:40.519
in Polk County conducted surveillance, spotted the Impala backing out
87
00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:43.839
of the driveway, stopped it with a female driver, waited
88
00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:46.639
for Tampa PD to arrive, and had it towed for
89
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:51.240
a controlled search warrant execution. Day three brought dramatic arrest video.
90
00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:54.759
Georgia police officer Ji l. Vega took down one of
91
00:05:54.759 --> 00:05:58.319
the co defendants. Jury saw the whole thing, and here's
92
00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:02.560
the emotional parts. Friend mister Norris took the stand Wednesday
93
00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:05.480
and broke down while recounting those final moments. Said he
94
00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:08.240
was sleeping in the back of Fulio's Dodge charger parked
95
00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:10.680
in front of the Holiday Inn. Got woken up by
96
00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:13.959
loud noises. Initially thought they'd been in a car crash.
97
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:18.240
The first thing I saw was Fulio laid out, Norris testified,
98
00:06:18.439 --> 00:06:21.560
fighting back tears. I thought it was a car accident
99
00:06:21.800 --> 00:06:24.480
until I looked up and saw the bullet holes, and
100
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:28.800
I saw Xavier covered in blood yelling. They went inside
101
00:06:28.839 --> 00:06:31.519
the hotel trying to get help, but it was too late.
102
00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:35.560
Fulio was dead at twenty six years old. Now, let's
103
00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:39.600
talk about what makes this case particularly messy. Andrews isn't
104
00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:43.480
in a gang. Prosecutors admit that, but they're arguing she
105
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.839
was the planner, the coordinator, the person who booked the
106
00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:50.319
Airbnb and tracked the victim. That even though she wasn't
107
00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:53.600
pulling triggers. She was essential to making this murder happen.
108
00:06:54.600 --> 00:06:58.399
And they have her boyfriend's phone pinging towers alongside hers
109
00:06:58.480 --> 00:07:02.199
the entire way from Jack'sville to Tampa. They have text
110
00:07:02.199 --> 00:07:06.279
messages from years earlier expressing hatred toward the victim. They
111
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:09.319
have a gang war that's been raging since twenty eighteen
112
00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:12.240
as the motive. The defense wanted to argue she was
113
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:15.519
a victim of domestic violence who was coerced into participating,
114
00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:18.879
but the judge said no, that's not a valid legal
115
00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:22.759
defense to premeditated murder in Florida. So now they're stuck
116
00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:25.439
trying to convince a jury that she wasn't really involved,
117
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:28.199
or that she didn't know what was happening, or that
118
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:31.399
she didn't have the specific intent required for first degree murder.
119
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:35.720
It's an uphill battle. Prosecutors aren't seeking the death penalty
120
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:40.040
against Andrews, but her four co defendants are facing that possibility.
121
00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:43.920
Those cases are scheduled for spring twenty twenty six. The
122
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:47.639
trial continues this week. We're watching to see if Andrews
123
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.319
takes the stand in her own defense, always a risky move,
124
00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:54.879
but sometimes necessary when your defense has been gutted by
125
00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:59.160
pre trial rulings. Fulio's mother has been vocal about wanting
126
00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:01.839
justice for her son. Said she asked him to stop
127
00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:06.079
rapping amid all the violence. He didn't listen or couldn't listen.
128
00:08:06.560 --> 00:08:09.160
When you're that deep in a gang war, walking away
129
00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:13.079
isn't always an option. Twenty six years old, birthday weekend
130
00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:16.600
in Tampa. Never made at home. Justice isn't always fast,
131
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:29.279
but it's always riveting. Welcome back to celebrity trials. Our
132
00:08:29.399 --> 00:08:33.320
second case, New Hampshire versus Dustin Durhan And if you
133
00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:37.759
thought the Juliofulio case was complicated, this one is equally disturbing,
134
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:42.440
but for completely different reasons. Dustin Duran, thirty eight years old,
135
00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:46.279
is on trial for second degree murder, reckless conduct with
136
00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:50.559
a deadly weapon, and child endangerment. He shot and killed
137
00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:54.399
Caitlin Nafzger thirty one years old, mother of his two children,
138
00:08:54.519 --> 00:08:58.600
on February twenty ninth, twenty twenty four. Then he took
139
00:08:58.639 --> 00:09:02.639
their daughters, aged four and one, and drove one hundred
140
00:09:02.720 --> 00:09:06.000
seventy miles before being arrested in an Applebee's parking lot
141
00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:09.200
in Keene, New Hampshire. The Amber alert that went out
142
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:13.799
that day made national news. Civilian spotted Duran's white Subaru,
143
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:17.720
called nine one one followed him into the restaurant parking lot.
144
00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:22.200
Police responded with guns drawn. Body camera footage shows the takedown.
145
00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:26.399
Both girls were found safe inside the vehicle. Now Durn
146
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:28.960
is on trial, and this week he took the stand
147
00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:32.159
in his own defense. Always a bold move, often a
148
00:09:32.200 --> 00:09:37.759
disastrous one. Opening statements set the stage. Prosecutor Joshua Spiker
149
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:41.240
told the jury this is a case about anger, anger
150
00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:45.039
and control. Said Durn ripped away one of their daughters
151
00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:48.080
from Nafzger before firing a single shot that killed her.
152
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:52.000
The defense painted it differently. Attorney Hannah Kinney said it
153
00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:55.159
was a tragedy but not a crime, that Durn believed
154
00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:58.120
his daughter was being held hostage, that as a marine
155
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:01.679
veteran with PTSD, he was reacting to a threat toward
156
00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:05.080
his beloved daughter. Let's be clear about what we know happened.
157
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:10.080
February twenty ninth, twenty twenty four, Duran and Nafziger were
158
00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:13.000
at his apartment in Berlin, New Hampshire. They'd been in
159
00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:17.039
an on again, off again relationship since twenty nineteen. Two
160
00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:21.159
daughters together lots of custody disputes. He claimed she'd threatened
161
00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:23.799
multiple times to take the kids away from him permanently.
162
00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:28.399
That night, according to testimony, there was an argument. Duran
163
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:31.919
later told police it was about money and taxes, said
164
00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:35.080
Nafziger was threatening to claim he'd kidnap their older daughter,
165
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:38.960
threatening to call police and have him arrested. What happened
166
00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:43.559
next is not disputed. Duran pulled their daughter away from Nafzinger,
167
00:10:43.960 --> 00:10:47.200
held the child, and shot Nafzger once in the head.
168
00:10:47.919 --> 00:10:49.720
The bullet went in one side of her head and
169
00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:53.240
out the other, he later told police. Durhan admitted in
170
00:10:53.279 --> 00:10:56.440
his police interview that when he pulled the trigger, Nafziger
171
00:10:56.559 --> 00:11:00.000
was not threatening him or his daughter. Said the shooting
172
00:11:00.240 --> 00:11:03.720
was done deliberately, said he tried to shield his daughter
173
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:07.519
from seeing it. After killing Nafzigger, Durren knew he was
174
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:11.039
screwed his words, talked about wanting to spend time with
175
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:14.360
the kids before turning himself in. Instead, he put both
176
00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:17.799
girls in the car and drove Around ten thirty pm,
177
00:11:17.919 --> 00:11:21.759
Berlin police responded to the apartment and found Nafziger's body,
178
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:26.799
single gunshot wound to the head. Homicide. The next morning,
179
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:29.759
an Amber alert went out for the two girls. Caroline
180
00:11:29.799 --> 00:11:31.919
Campbell and her daughter were driving when they saw the
181
00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:35.600
white Subaru from the alert. We proceeded up a hill
182
00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:40.320
and my daughter says, here comes a white Subaru, Campbell testified.
183
00:11:40.679 --> 00:11:44.720
I said, that's it, that's the car. They called nine
184
00:11:44.759 --> 00:11:48.679
one one followed Durrenn police descended on the Applebee's parking lot.
185
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:52.799
Body camera video shows the arrest, guns drawn, officers ordering
186
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:55.559
durren to open the door with one hand. Both children
187
00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:59.399
safe inside. Now here's where it gets complicated. Duran's father,
188
00:11:59.759 --> 00:12:03.519
Mark Duran, was one of the first witnesses, testified that
189
00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:05.679
he got a call from his wife early that morning.
190
00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:08.960
She'd heard from Dustin that he'd shot Caitlin. Mark Duran
191
00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:11.960
called police in Berlin, told them what happened. Those kids
192
00:12:12.000 --> 00:12:14.799
are now being raised by their grandparents. But the real
193
00:12:14.879 --> 00:12:18.000
drama came this week when Dustin Duran took the stand.
194
00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:22.200
He testified for hours about his relationship with Nafzger met
195
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:26.519
her in twenty nineteen. She got pregnant in April twenty nineteen.
196
00:12:27.080 --> 00:12:30.440
Their first daughter, Ellewen, was born in December. He taught
197
00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:34.320
Nafziger to shoot a pistol for safety purposes. Interesting detail
198
00:12:34.440 --> 00:12:37.000
given how this ends. They planned to move to New
199
00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:39.840
Hampshire in August twenty twenty three when their lease expired,
200
00:12:40.399 --> 00:12:44.200
but when moving pods arrived, Durn discovered Nafziger had actually
201
00:12:44.279 --> 00:12:47.440
planned to go to Minnesota instead. She left with baby
202
00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:50.919
Valen for the airport without telling him, eventually convinced him
203
00:12:50.960 --> 00:12:54.440
to move to Minnesota to work things out. Once in Minnesota,
204
00:12:54.600 --> 00:12:59.720
they lived separately and shared custody. October twenty twenty three,
205
00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:03.879
Nafziger agreed to continue with the New Hampshire move. Duran
206
00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:07.440
would drive with Elowin and Nafziger would fly with Valen,
207
00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:12.600
but the custody disputes never stopped. Duran testified that Nafziger
208
00:13:12.720 --> 00:13:16.200
repeatedly threatened to take the kids away. Said he feared
209
00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:20.320
she would disappear with the girls. Described previous occasions when
210
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:23.399
she'd taken one of their daughters without his knowledge. Here's
211
00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:28.120
what makes his testimony so problematic. He became emotional talking
212
00:13:28.159 --> 00:13:30.480
about his love for his children and his fear of
213
00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:34.879
losing them. Described feeling helpless when Nafziger would make threats
214
00:13:34.919 --> 00:13:37.960
about custody. The defense wants you to believe this was
215
00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:41.519
a father desperately trying to protect his daughters. But Duran
216
00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:44.799
already told police on the record in the interview they
217
00:13:44.799 --> 00:13:47.919
played for the jury that Nafziger was not threatening him
218
00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:50.360
or his daughter when he shot her, that it was
219
00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:54.159
done deliberately. So the defense is arguing self defense and
220
00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:57.440
protection of his child, but their own client admitted in
221
00:13:57.480 --> 00:14:00.519
his police interview that there was no immediate threat when
222
00:14:00.519 --> 00:14:04.399
he pulled the trigger. That's not self defense, that's not protection,
223
00:14:04.840 --> 00:14:09.720
that's murder. Durren also testified about his military background, deployments
224
00:14:09.720 --> 00:14:15.879
to Iraq and Afghanistan, service connected PTSD diagnosis, struggled with depression,
225
00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:19.639
and difficulty maintaining employment after leaving the Marines. The defense
226
00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:22.600
wants you to feel sympathy for a veteran with PTSD
227
00:14:22.879 --> 00:14:25.960
who was afraid of losing his children, and maybe there
228
00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:28.559
is sympathy to be had for someone struggling with mental
229
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:32.519
health issues and custody disputes. But Caitlin Nafzigger is dead,
230
00:14:32.919 --> 00:14:35.759
thirty one years old, shot in the head while her
231
00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:38.480
one year old daughter was in the room, and Duran
232
00:14:38.519 --> 00:14:42.679
admitted he pulled the trigger deliberately when she wasn't threatening anyone.
233
00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:45.879
The prosecution played the full police interview for the jury.
234
00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:50.480
Detective Michael McLaughlin testified about taking Durrenn into custody, about
235
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:53.639
the recorded confession about Duran saying he knew he was
236
00:14:53.679 --> 00:14:57.879
screwed after the shooting. Duran is scheduled to continue testifying
237
00:14:57.919 --> 00:15:01.759
this week. He'll face cross examination from prosecutors, and that's
238
00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:05.159
where this case will likely be won or lost, because
239
00:15:05.240 --> 00:15:08.360
right now he's admitted to deliberately killing the mother of
240
00:15:08.399 --> 00:15:11.600
his children when she wasn't threatening anyone, and his defense
241
00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:14.000
is asking a jury to believe he was acting in
242
00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:17.480
self defense. That's a very hard cell. The jury heard
243
00:15:17.559 --> 00:15:22.279
crime scene testimony, officers describing responding to the scene, finding
