Justice for Berkeley County’s 2020 Double Murder
The trial began with prosecutors methodically weaving a story that painted Gadson as the mastermind of a horrible murder. They persistently provided evidence tying him to Lashawn Gadson and Lori Gentile. Phone records showed Gadson’s connection with Lashawn, a young lady tragically involved in a perilous affair.
Lori Gentile, a lady twice Lashawn’s age, routinely chauffeured the younger victim, bolstering the prosecution’s case. They were unknowingly drawn into danger by their friendship.
Importantly, DNA evidence placed Gadson near the crime scene, leaving his genetic fingerprint on the victim’s automobile. It suggested a bodily presence at the crime scene, making it intriguing. Despite more evidence, narrative gaps persisted.
