UTICA, N.Y. -- After a week of testimony, closing summations wrapped Tuesday in the murder trial a Raekwon Winston.

He is the Utica man accused of shooting and killing a homeless man, 60-year-old Lawrence Edwards, nearly three years ago.

The defense closed first, taking approximately 50 minutes in Oneida County Court.

The defense said a lot of people could have committed this crime, and that prosecution witnesses were not credible and gave inconsistent testimony.

The prosecution told jurors minor inconsistencies in witness' recollections doesn't mean an effect didn't happen.

Charge complete. Jury has left the courtroom to begin deliberations in Raekwon Winston murder trial.
