How did he tamper with witnesses? jw...

They re going to have a new trial for the charge of Reckless Manslaughter. I don't believe he should be found guilty of this charge because he was at his home, with his gun, and it went off. That's an accident. It wasn't reckless.

Myth
He told witnesses what stories to tell.
