Abdulhakim Muhammad has been advised of his rights and told the judge Monday afternoon, as in the second week of his trial sputtered, that he was entering a guilty plea. In a matter of moments after 1 p.m., he was sworn in and advised of his rights. Prosecutors detailed the shooting and Muhammad acknowledged he was responsible. The jury was dismissed, and testimony started immediately in the sentencing phase. Army Pvt. Quinton Ezeagwula's mother is now on the stand. Ezeagwula was injured in the attack that killed his friend, Army Pvt. William Andrew Long, outside of the recruiting center. |
