Prosecution rests in murder trial of ex-Miami player Rashaun Jones
MIAMI — Prosecutors rested their case against former Miami Hurricanes football player Rashaun Jones on Wednesday after presenting 21 witnesses in an attempt to prove that Jones had both a gun and a motive to kill teammate Bryan Pata and was notably missing from a mandatory team meeting on the night of the murder.
Attorneys for Jones offered an answer to all the circumstantial evidence jurors heard through five days of testimony but could not rebut the video recorded testimony of an eyewitness who twice identified Jones as the person leaving the scene of the shooting.
The defense was not expected to present additional witnesses, and jurors are set to begin deliberating Thursday.

Bryan Pata bought a beige suit months before he was projected to enter the NFL Draft.
An expected mid-round pick who was named to the Ted Hendricks Award Watchlist, an award given to the nation’s top defensive end, Pata was the Miami Hurricanes starting edge rusher during the 2006 season.
Despite all his draft promise, he never had the opportunity to wear that suit to Radio City Music Hall for the NFL Draft.
Instead, Pata was buried in that suit at a cemetery in Kendall after being murdered on Nov. 6, 2006.
Pata was shot outside his off-campus Kendall apartment following a football practice, but with no camera surveillance footage, investigators were forced to rely on eyewitness accounts.
