On Thursday, the prosecution in the quadruple murder trial against Maleke Pate played recordings that investigators say show Pate was scheming a defense strategy.Pate is charged with killing 42-year-old Maria Nunez-Iese, her son, 19-year-old Emery Iese, Maria’s brother, 22-year-old Raymond Williams, and Raymond’s girlfriend, 22-year-old Natasha Brincefield.Prosecutors say we may never learn why these killings happened, and it's possible Pate might not take the stand.
Here is another clip from the recordings:"Ain’t got no fingerprints on this gun. You ain’t got no fingerprints on nothing. It ain't mine. I give a f--- about how anyone feels. You ain’t got no actual face shot where I look you in your eyes on camera. That ain’t me."The prosecution addressed these statements by also showing surveillance video of the person who investigators say is the murderer, compared to pictures of clothes found in Pate’s room and tattoos he has on his arms.
