DEFENCE attorneys on Wednesday took shots at the credibility of Agriculture Minister Floyd Green in the Home Circuit Court murder trial of six cops, but he held his composure on the witness stand.

On trial for murder are Sergeant Simroy Mott and Corporal Donovan Fullerton, along with constables Andrew Smith, Sheldon Richards, Orandy Rose, and Richard Lynch. Corporal Fullerton is also charged with making a false statement to the Independent Commission of Investigations.

They are being tried for murder in relation to the January 12, 2013 shooting deaths of Matthew Lee, Ucliffe Dyer, and Mark Allen on Acadia Drive, St Andrew. The three men were said to have been killed in a shoot-out with the police. A fourth man was said to have escaped. Two illegal firearms were allegedly seized.
