Jilted Marine, 23, 'bound his former prom date, 20, strangled and stabbed her

A murder trial is under way in Baltimore for a US Marine who prosecutors say tied up, beat and stabbed to death his former prom date, leaving her bloodied body to be discovered in a high school’s bleachers.

Prosecutors presented evidence on Tuesday they say proves Christopher Rather, 23, killed his ex-girlfriend, 20-year-old Jasmine Pierce-Morris, last June.

Rather’s defense attorney, Paul Batchelor, maintains he is innocent. He says investigators mishandled evidence and set out to blame the ex-boyfriend for the slaying.

Why is this news???! because he's a marine and not any one of another half dozen people that shot someone in some democratic run shihole of a city anywhere in the USA?

I agree. Not national news - local okay. Lawyers who look for loop holes such as he was put in hand cuffs that were to tight and caused emotional distress and can't be accused of the murder even though their clients finger prints are all over the bloody knife should be banned from practicing law.

AirDrop him into Afganistán, loaded with weapons, and fight until he's dead or captured. 2 birds with one stone.
