"Mistrial Declared in Ex-Ohio Deputy's Murder Trial for Killing Casey Goodson Jr."

A mistrial was declared in the murder trial of former Ohio sheriff’s deputy Jason Meade, who shot and killed Casey Goodson Jr. in December 2020. The jury was unable to reach a verdict after Meade, who is white, shot the 23-year-old Black man six times, including five times in the back, as Goodson tried to enter his grandmother’s home. The judge will meet with prosecutors and defense lawyers to decide how to proceed, while tensions remain high as some jurors believed Meade was responsible for the unjustifiable killing. The trial was marked by the dismissal and replacement of several jurors, and Meade's claims about Goodson posing a threat were disputed by prosecutors.

"Controversy and Delays: The Jason Meade Murder Trial"

Judge Young initially declared a mistrial in the murder trial of former deputy Jason Meade, but later rescinded it, allowing the jury to continue deliberations. The jury, facing difficulty reaching a verdict in the killing of Casey Goodson Jr., had to restart deliberations multiple times due to the substitution of alternate jurors. The trial centers on the shooting of Goodson by Meade, who claims self-defense, while prosecutors and Goodson's family assert that Goodson was unarmed and carrying food.

"Trial Begins for Ex-Deputy Accused of Fatally Shooting Casey Goodson Jr."

A former Ohio sheriff’s deputy, Jason Meade, is on trial for the murder of Casey Goodson Jr., a Black man who was shot in the back in 2020. Prosecutors revealed that Goodson was holding sandwiches and keys when he was shot, and his gun was found in his kitchen with the safety on. Meade claims Goodson pointed a firearm at him, but the prosecution argues that Meade's actions were intentional and unjustified. The case has sparked a federal civil rights lawsuit and a debate over whether the trial should be held in state or federal court.
