A jury on December 12 found former prominent United National Congress (UNC) activist Marvin Lezama not guilty of a 2012 murder.

Lezama was before Justice Mauricia Joseph-Patrick and a Port of Spain jury.

Lezama had been charged with the July 22, 2012, killing of Stephan Haynes in the Bon Air Gardens, Arouca. The state alleged that Lezama and an unidentified accomplice, described as “the tall man,” shot Haynes multiple times in what was described as an execution-style killing.
