YouTube Description
as posted by the channelLIVE: After eight years of delays and nine days of testimony, Closing Arguments are set to begin in the trial of #CurtisReeves, the retired Florida police captain accused of shooting and killing a man in a movie theater during a dispute over cell phone use and popcorn.
Reeves, a retired Tampa police officer, was charged with second-degree murder. He pleaded not guilty, claiming self-defense.

Reeves is charged with the Jan. 13, 2014, death of Chad Oulson. Investigators say the men got into an argument when Reeves confronted Oulson about texting. Surveillance video shows Oulson grab Reeves’ popcorn and threw it at him. Reeves then fires a gun, fatally wounding Oulson.
