Prosecutors: Bess killed with malice

Assistant District Attorney described how Terry Lee Bess beat Sherwood Wade with a broken mop handle as he fought for his life on an apartment porch on Logan Street.

He said just because the 13-year-old girl cried doesn't mean she has an interest in the outcome of the case.

He said the stabbing occurred early on when Bess came up from behind and stabbed Wade. He said the girl's testimony supports that argument.

He said the fight over the knife occurred after.

"I don't know if its the alcohol or drugs that creates this malice but something did," said Young.
