Jurors on Monday acquitted two Savannah men of murder and related charges in the 2013 slaying of Achmed Kiwaan Williams. The nine women and three men returned to Chatham County Superior Court after about two hours of deliberations and returned acquittals on all counts for Terrell Nelson, 20, and Germaine “Juk” Grant, 24. Jurors had returned to court Monday after a weekend recess following three hours of deliberations on Friday evening.
Both Grant’s lawyer, Assistant Public Defender John Rodman, and attorney David Burns, who represents Nelson, challenged Seabrook’s credibility and contended the state’s evidence did not support guilty verdicts.
