Jury urged to find Beckles guilty

Jamaica Gleaner News "Prosecutor Caroline Hay has asked the jury to find that 22-year-old university student Rodney Beckles was the aggressor and that he was not acting in self-defence when 28-year-old Khalil Campbell was fatally stabbed on January 3. Beckles has been on trial in the Home Circuit Court since Monday for Campbell's murder. Defence lawyer Patrick Atkinson has asked the jury to acquit Beckles because he was acting in self-defence. Justice Kay Beckford will begin her summation to the jury today. Campbell, son of Supreme Court Judge Lennox Campbell, died as a result of a stab wound to the chest which penetrated the heart. "
