Dillard murder trial winding down; closing arguments, deliberations Thursday

LISBON — Jamie Farley, 35, was described today as a violent man instead of an apparently unarmed murder victim.

Eric Dillard is on trial in Columbiana County Common Pleas Court, charged with Farley’s murder with a gun specification.

He also is charged with illegal possession of a weapon because of a previous drug conviction.

He could get 15 years to life in prison if convicted of the murder charge.

Jurors are to hear final arguments Thursday before they begin deliberations.
