Los Angeles Strip Clubs: Phillips Ranch murder case goes to jury
In his closing argument, McKesson’s recited a lengthy list of wrongs reportedly committed by Ezra Davidson against his wife and family.
Vellakkatel told jurors the defense strategy was “complete character assassination” meant to gain the sympathy of the predominantly female jury.
“The people do not condone (Ezra Davidson’s) actions. … But did he deserve death? No,” Vellakkatel said.
At one point in his closing argument the prosecutor briefly spoke as Ezra Davidson.
“My wife murdered me,” Vellakkatel said. “I can’t tell you how good of a man I was.”
Ezra Davidson’s mistress – a 20-year-old USC student who worked in his office as a secretary – was not the first woman with whom he cheated, McKesson told jurors.
He slept with strippers when the family lived in Austria, and when Adrienne Davidson found out about the affairs she cut holes in his shirts.
