A Los Angeles County judge allowed murder charges to proceed against two men accused of killing university administrator Sidney Barrett Morris, despite no established motive. Two years ago, Morris was shot while dining alone. Prosecutors used various forms of evidence, including surveillance and phone records, suggesting Phillip Clark was the shooter and Santana Kelly was implicated in planning the murder. Defense attorneys countered that the evidence did not connect their clients directly to the crime, describing the prosecution's case as speculative, but the judge maintained enough evidence existed to continue proceedings.
Prosecutors argue that a UCLA administrator's murder was orchestrated by Santana Kelly, while Phillip Clark is accused of being the shooter, despite lacking a clear motive.
Defense attorneys claimed the evidence presented by prosecutors was insufficient to link their clients to the crime, stating it was based on mere speculation.
