NEW: Defense Attorney Earl Gray Says Black Foreman is ‘Racist’ After Guilty Verdict, Judge Grants New Hearing
In a motion hearing seeking a new trial for convicted murderer Brian Kjellberg, defense attorney Earl Gray called the Black foreman of the jury “racist” and was granted a Schwartz hearing. In late March, Kjellberg was found guilty by a jury of second-degree murder without intent for killing Arnell ‘AJ’ Stewart outside Kjellberg’s St. Paul home.
