Opening statements took place on Friday where both state and defense plead their cases on alleged killer George Kelly. During these opening statements, shocking evidence such as 911 calls and images were released and shown to the jury. On January 30th, 2023, 75-year-old Arizona rancher George Alan Kelly allegedly shot and killed Gabriel Cuen Buitimea, whom he accused of trespassing on his ranch in Keno Springs after crossing the Mexican border. Kelly and his wife were concerned about cartels trafficking drugs and people before the deadly incident happened. Reports also say Butimea had a history of illegally crossing the border. Kelly is charged with second-degree murder and aggravated assault.

The lies and straight ridiculous claims this prosecutor is saying is disturbing she needs to be let go
Now brenna larkin is a great defense att. She will have a great career ahead of her.
Im a George fan!
11 to 1 for acquittal. No retrial.
wish we could see the pictures
This whole case is nonsense. I can’t believe the judge interrupted defenses opening statements just to take a quick break. Pretty unprofessional imo.. also what kind of police don’t record interviews.. crooked
There will be no murder trial if this criminal stayed home in MEXICO
The audio is atrocious!
Way to long waiting for the judge to come out of his chambers
not guilty
Her calling it a semi-automatic assault rifle is driving me crazy. It is not an "Assault Rifle", it is a 22 caliber rifle that, like most handguns, is semi-automatic yet she does not call his handgun a semi-automatic assault pistol/revolver……so condescending….
What’s the bombshell evidence?
No ifs, ands, or buts about it: You cannot shoot someone just for trespassing! Guilty!
The only thing he’s guilty is protecting the border. Too bad our government won’t do it.
Arizona is a joke.
Prosecutor list me after the first 30 minutes. She’s basically repeating the same thing. Jurors don’t need to hear all that in opening. KISS
This is sad. This man is being used so that congress will do their job and make authorities DO THEIR JOB And arrest illegal aliens and send them back.
Guess we should learn from this case. Dont call 911!!!
We live on land in northern Az. I expect to be encountering illegal, drug, and human traffickers any day now. Nice to know that the law is against the US citizen, and for the cartels and their workers!!
Oh, that poor, poor,illegal alien, human and drug trafficker, trespassing on that evil mans land! We should give the cartel that land. They shouldn't have to trespass to get their drugs through!!
How much you want to bet this dead guy submits a ballot this year…
NOT GUILTY! Never should have been charged!
Defendant was just not smart in how he went about this. Say, “ I felt scared for my life with all the cartel members around here.That’s it
Santa Cruz county is trash.
Apparently George was laying on the ground if he was actually who shot the criminal.
this case is the state just wasting taxpayer's money, blaming a citizen for their own inability to fulfill one of their primary tasks, securing the countries' borders.
Stay off PRIVATE PROPERTY especially when there's an invasion of drug cartels, illegal criminals and border invaders.
She has 100s of miles to go to convince me he is guilty. Why isn’t this on tv like they said it would be?
Omg the sniffles in the microphone are getting on my nerves …..lol
She shouldn’t have been allowed to call the AK an “assault rifle” 🤦🏼♂️
The judge needs to instruct the defense attorney that is sitting down during openings to stop with all of the antics while her partner is up there, giving opening statement
Of course the illegal will lie, he was doing wrong when he was almost killed.
How could this guy just shoot his gun not knowing who or what he was shooting at !! What if it was a child that wandered off and ended up on this guy’s property ?? Unless he was in danger of being shot himself why shot someone in the back ?? He should have called and had the authorities come out to investigate the situation!!
Caamo? Hiding or hunting?
Wow ppl bleed when shot.
Radio or sidearm at distance.
She keeps saying, hard to see.
Fence line should have been a warning. X2
How does bullet line up with house when guy is lying on ground?
The ppl crossing on to his property where the ones acting recklessly.
Did they give him warning when they invaded his property?
What is a Assault Rifle?
Whatever was in the dead man's backpack was missing when cops arrived. They were headed south with law enforcement on their heals. I think they were bringing cartel cash back from the US. This has nothing to do with human trafficking.
The single bullet was never found. They cannot connect the guns owned by the rancher to the crime. End of story.
I hunt occasionally in this area. Lots of illegal alien crossing and a major drug smuggling area. The national forest is in that area and has FEDERALLY INSTALLED signs that warns people to be cautious stating that "TRAVEL CAUTION – SMUGGLING AND ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION MAY BE ENCOUNTERED IN THIS AREA". Ive seen a few things down there and it is an area that you want to be cautious.
You guys are the one calling them “invaders” and therefore you think murder is justified. You’re shocked that anyone else might say you’re wrong- but you are.
If convicted, when Trump gets elected, he should pardon him, present him with a Presidential Medal of Freedom and then appoint him to border czar.
Trumpeteers 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Shall see; is it possible he didn’t shoot that way or if he did hit victim accidental and was shooting at other group. If so NG.
Surprised Arizona would even bring this to trial. Maybe trying change image
