Three suspects charged with killed a retired Chicago firefighter during a carjacking more than two years ago are finally seeing their day in court.

Dwain Williams, a retired lieutenant with the Chicago Fire Department, was just about to go back to work for the city at the Office of Emergency Management.

Williams had a concealed carry permit and pulled out his gun. Multiple shots were exchanged, and Williams was shot in the abdomen and later died. The star witness for prosecutors is 18-year-old David Williams, who was part of the carjacking crew, but was charged as a juvenile. He agreed to testify against the others after serving six months in a juvenile detention center.

Defense attorneys for the three men standing trial indicated they plan to tear into the star witness Williams’ credibility
