Witnesses’ Accounts on the Shooting

According to Dedaj, there are witnesses who have identified Davis as the shooter. Miles, on the other hand, confessed to providing Davis with the gun prior to the shooting. Despite not directly shooting Harris, Miles still intentionally caused the victim’s death by providing a gun and lending a hand to the murder. However, William C. White II, Miles’ attorney, stated that his client remains innocent of the murder. Miles was previously ruled out of the University of Alabama basketball team for the rest of the season due to an ankle injury. However, Miles was eventually dismissed from the team after his alleged involvement in the murder was revealed.
