Reporter Debrief: Attorney calls for mistrial in gruesome murder case

SAN ANTONIO – The lawyer for a San Antonio man accused in a gruesome murder demanded a mistrial Wednesday. 

Prosecutors maintain Daniel Lopez, 28, beat a man to death with a baseball bat two years ago.

There were verbal fireworks in court, with the defense attorney hurling strong accusations involving the co-defendant, who testified against Lopez.

Paul Venema was in the courtroom and sat down with Mark and Leslie on GMSA @ 9 to talk about this trial, after it was continued for two weeks.
