Former ice cream truck driver Michael Keetley is facing a retrial for allegedly shooting six people on Thanksgiving 2010, killing two brothers, and injuring four others. Prosecutors allege Keetley was out for revenge after his ice cream truck was robbed for $12, but mistakenly targeted the wrong suspects. Keetley’s first trial in February 2020 resulted in a deadlocked jury. The former ice cream man is facing two first-degree murder charges and four counts of attempted murder.
Reason For Retrial: Defense attorney’s argued Keetley was too badly wounded from his own shooting, to carry-out the shooting in Ruskin that killed two people. Weak witness testimony led to a mistrial in 2020, after some state witnesses failed to identify Keetley as the shooter, identifying another man in a police mug shot packet. Defense witnesses were more exacting in their testimony, which led to a jury deadlock of 10 not guilty, 2 guilty, and eventually a mistrial.

VERDICT WATCH:—- STILL?
My bad i commented on the wrong guy and im man enough to say sorry when im wrong, yes indeed I agree that Michael Keetley should have been aquitted . Poor guy, just trying to make a living and he gets robbed and shot, I would have voted not guilty.
How can I hit the like button if there's nothing to like,
The jury just put an innocent man behind bars. Sad sad ruling.
Where’s the death penalty
Where is todays video?
Guilty on all counts, verdicts in
What’s going on?
Verdict reached
Maybe the juror that had to leave early had a hard time being on time this morning because she had to have someone put car seats in their car to pick up children so she could stay today.
Morning
Does this start at 9
What time does it start
Good morning
The Judge decided on juror 12 coming & going re:childcare. Not defense. Yes it is a juror defense picked so of course they will fight to keep her. Imo
I expect a deal, and they will release him as time already served
One juror messing things up she's becoming a pest.
SMH at some of these comments. The jurors in the tentacion trial took over 20 hours to deliberate. They went home before dinner every evening. They even took an entire day completely off for a long weekend! But I guess there was no woman to focus the blame on for that one.
Judge is inappropriate targeting a mother who has a 5:30 time to get her children. They took her in knowing this. His "hurry up" message is absolutely inappropriate in that it targets one person. And this had to be addressed at jury selection only. He also left the juror with his hand raised, stunned by his demand that he had to put it in writing. There's a more graceful way to state that. Obviously, no question came back so he didn't feel comfortable asking.
Any sign a verdict in yt
Ding ding ding…I hope he walks….if state can't frame you first time ,they should not get a redo.
LETS HOPE THIS GUY WALKS FREE
Did the jurors go home?
I think he did ! mean why did 1:25 he take his van in the middle of the night to have it painted? To me there’s no other reason for him to do that the night that 6 people were shot that he had told people he was gonna take justice into his own hands because they hadn’t been found the ones that robbed and shot him… He’s guilty wether they proved it or not is up to the jury to decide…
I kinda feel like Judge Peter wants to tell them to hurry it up!
the judge got new glasses!
