Summary
Garret Fisher covers three cases. In Nashville, jury selection has begun in the first-degree and felony murder trial of Blaise Taylor, a former Tennessee Titans pro scout accused of secretly poisoning his pregnant girlfriend, Jade Benning, in February 2023; Benning's unborn daughter died days later, and Benning herself died on March 6 — her 25th birthday. He has pleaded not guilty, the defense is contesting the forensic evidence, and the state is seeking life without parole. In Cape Coral, Florida, Thomas Stein — convicted of felony murder and three counts of attempted murder in the 2024 shooting death of 15-year-old Kayla Rincon-Miller during an attempted robbery — has had his motion for a new trial denied; he faces a mandatory life sentence at his July 10 sentencing. And in Miami, Jacob Kohlhas, 72, charged with second-degree murder in the death of 65-year-old Alisa Toth, who died after he allegedly pushed her on a public sidewalk, is asking a judge to bar the charge on speedy-trial grounds, arguing prosecutors filed it after the clock had run. He has pleaded not guilty. Join our new FB groups page here. Take the poll! Join the Daily Crime & Justice community on social media!
