Witnesses to Assault on Ed Wilson give Testimony


Testimony at the second degree murder trial of Angela Duchesne and
Kenneth Ivall is focusing on an assault at the Tower Motel on Ed Wilson.

Over the past couple of days a couple of witnesses have describe the
assault on Ed Wilson in the early morning hours of March 21st, 2009.

Earlier today, Tim Fleury was on the witness stand.

He drove a couple of friends to the Tower Motel around 2:00 in the morning.

He says when they arrived, they witnessed an argument between a man
identified as Ed Wilson and another woman.

Fleury says Wilson struck the woman with the back of his hand.

At that point he says someone then punched Wilson once or twice knocking him to the ground.

Fleury says he never got out of his truck and didn't see the whole
altercation take place.

But he did see Wilson try to get up and run around the southwest corner
of the motel.

At that point he says he didn't see what happened to Wilson, but he says
it was only about a minute later that some of the assailants ran back to
his truck and the then drove away.

The trial is scheduled to resume this morning.
