PHILADELPHIA - August 21, 2009 Eighteen-year-old Ameer Best, 17-year-old Kinta Stanton and
17-year-old Nashir Fisher are facing third-degree murder charges in
the death of 36-year-old Sean Conroy in March 2008. Attorneys for
the teens wrapped up their case Friday.
Prosecutors say the teens attacked Conroy as the result of a
dare, triggering a fatal asthma attack.
Stanton testified Thursday that he and Fisher never struck
Conroy but Best knocked him to the ground.
Two other teens have pleaded guilty in the case and are awaiting
sentencing.
Attorneys have not commented on the case because of a gag order.
