**Live coverage from day one of Jason Meade's trial has concluded. The first witnesses in the case are expected to be called to the stand Thursday morning.** Opening statements by both the prosecution and the defense were delivered in court Wednesday morning. Prosecuting attorney Gary Shroyer called the shooting "unjustified" and said that evidence will show Meade acted with intent, knowingly and recklessly causing the death of Goodson. The prosecution revealed that Goodson's gun was found on the kitchen floor of the home near where he fell after he was shot. Shroyer said the gun’s safety button was on and that Goodson had a soft-sided holster without a strap in the front of his pants. Goodson, according to the prosecution, was only carrying keys and a bag of Subway sandwiches and his back was to Meade at the time of the shooting. “Six shots in the back, all fired by the defendant into the back of Casey Goodson with no reasonable basis for the defendant to perceive a threat by Casey,” Shroyer said. “It's an unjustified shooting.” TRIAL UPDATES: https://www.10tv.com/article/news/local/jason-meade-casey-goodson-jr-murder-trial-columbus-ohio-live-updates/530-8f5d9323-396d-4e94-8a88-354d6015d10e In the defense’s opening statement, attorney Kaitlyn Stephens said Goodson waved a gun, ran and pointed his weapon in the direction of Meade. The defense stated evidence throughout the trial will show that Meade was not reckless in the shooting. Stephens argued Meade is trained to shoot until the threat is over and that he shot to stop the threat of an attack before the threat “attacked him.” The defense also said Meade's gun was set on automatic and that Meade pulled the trigger once, firing six shots at Goodson. “He continues to yell, ‘show me your hands’ before the suspect makes entry into that home,” Stephens said. “My client thought it was all over. My client thought he was going to surrender. In that split second, the suspect turns towards the officer, looks in Jason's direction as he lifts his hands up leveling the barrel of the gun toward my client and in that split second Jason steps to the left and fires.” Jurors will visit the home of Goodson’s grandmother in the Linden neighborhood Wednesday afternoon to see the scene of the shooting. The purpose of the trip is to help the jury put into perspective the evidence that will be presented throughout the trial. Attorneys on both sides will be in attendance but are not allowed to intervene in any way. The first witnesses in the case are expected to be called to the stand Thursday.
