A jury acquitted an Augusta man of murder charges Wednesday in a 2020 fatal shooting at the victim's home.
All the eyewitnesses and Jaron Moore said he shot 39-year-old Reginald Frank on Oct. 10, 2020. The question for the Richmond County Superior Court jury this week was whether the shooting was in self defense or an unjustified killing and therefore murder.
The jury deliberated about an hour and a half before returning its verdict of not guilty.
Moore, 28, had been held in jail since his arrest last year but he was to be released Wednesday. Moore had no criminal history outside of misdemeanor offenses.
