Juries acquit defendants in transgender murder and other cases

Juries delivered acquittals in three separate cases: Tremon Hill was found not guilty of first-degree murder in the 2018 killing of De’Janay Stanton, a Black transgender woman; prosecutors relied heavily on cellphone evidence, which the defense challenged. In Wisconsin, Javarius Hurd was acquitted of homicide in the 2024 death of Lincoln Hills guard Corey Proulx but convicted of battery by a prisoner, for which he faced sentencing. In the Bahamas, Nathaniel Pedro Moss was acquitted of unlawful sexual intercourse with a 14-year-old girl after denying the allegation.
