BANGOR, Maine (AP) The trial of a man charged with homicide is getting underway.
F Daly, a Boston native who doesn’t have a first name, is charged with murder in the fatal shooting of 51-year-old Israel Lewis on Jan. 7, 2018, in Bangor.
The jury was selected late last week, and opening statements begin Monday.
Daly was charged after Lewis’ body was discovered three days after the shooting by his ex-girlfriend, who saw his body and called 911.
Investigators allegedly found the murder weapon hidden in Daly’s apartment. Daly’s attorneys contend the state’s case is based solely on circumstantial evidence.
