A mistrial has been declared in the case of former University of Miami football player Rashaun Jones, accused of murdering teammate Bryan Pat in 2006. The case was left unsolved for 15 years and Jones was arrested in 2021, three months before the 15th anniversary of Pata's death. The defense claimed the state's case was weak and accused prosecutors of flecturing under community pressure. The prosecution failed to directly link Jones to the shooting, relying on witness testimony.
