The 13-year-old Darius Simmons was murdered by 76-year-old John Henry Spooner in May 2012. Simmons reportedly was in taking out the trash when the Milwaukee shooting happened.

Darius Simmons Murder happened through a gunshot in the hands of a neighbor, Simmons was reportedly only 6 feet away from Spooner when the shot was fired, causing the young African American boy to run away to the sound of a second shot being fired.

As the second shot missed Simmons, his mother ran out of the house to catch up with her collapsed son. As she discovered the hole in his chest, she looked up to only see him breathe his last.

"I pulled his shirt up and I [saw] he had a bullet hole in his chest. He took one more breath and that's it." Tears filled up Patricia Larry's eyes as she gave her testimony in court.

Though the overall pool of prospective jurors was downsized from four african americans to one, the first half of the trial has concluded that John Henry Spooner was guilty of homicide, leaving the trial to measure his mental competence at the time of the killing.

Reports detail that the 76-year-old John Henry Spooner was threatening the young Darius Simmons due to perceived allegations of theft of Spooner's weapons.

Spooner's defense attorney Franklyn Gimbel will be attempting to prove that Spooner was mentally ill at the time, trying to blindside the murder into a similar situation as George Zimmerman's self-defense.

Protests by thousands of people in the U.S. are claiming that Trayvon Martin's justice was not paid to George Zimmerman, but will justice be paid for Darius Simmons?
