[QUOTE="Billybob, post: 2433841, member: 1294"] Oklahoma pastor accused of murdering son-in-law testifies in own defense, closing arguments Friday Michael Elder, a pastor at Cross Baptist Church, is accused of shooting and killing his estranged son-in-law, Gary Davidson, during a family fight last February... For the first time the jury heard stories of Michael Elder and Gary Davidsons alleged good relationship. But Elder says when he heard April was allegedly being abused, he called upon church members including convicted felon Steven Kirby to be there as he confronted Gary. As that confrontation turned violent, Elder and April Davidson immediately began telling a story of protection. Defense consultant David McKenzie says, You dont have to have deadly force used against you to use deadly force. But prosecutors say Elders claim of self-defense, or defense of April Davidson, is a stretch considering a jail phone conversation with his daughter. He told her quote I hope you told the same story I did. The jury heard texts Elder sent to Kirby, saying, Hes been threatening April, I think he needs an attitude adjustment. The prosecution also found a Facebook status from Steven Kirby saying, Dont let these two old men fool you, we can still run any young man into the ground.
