Carter Trial Set for August 17 | Baton Rouge News

Desmond Carter, 17 when indicted, faces serious charges in the tragic death of 19-year-old LSU student Madison Brooks—hit by a car on Burbank Drive. His defense is pushing to exclude Snapchat videos showing co-defendants with a gun, claiming they’re irrelevant since filmed 50 minutes after the incident. Prosecutors argue the full context must be presented. Toxicology findings will also be examined this Wednesday, as the trial set for August 17 looms—everyone’s watching to see how this unfolds.
