Episode Details

Rashiean Washington finally took the stand in his trial, offering his version of the deadly apartment fire and two killings from December 2021 — claiming he acted in self-defense after being accused of theft and confronted with a gun. He says he locked himself in his room, waited for an opening, and when he emerged, he fired after being attacked by Grant and his brother. The defense admits he pulled the trigger but argues it was justified, challenging forensic evidence about shell casings. The prosecution now steps up with more evidence on the fire’s origin, bullet damage, and casings — all leading to jury deliberation.
