Jermaine Brim appears at. the East County Hall of Justice in Dublin on Thursday Nov. 21, 2019. He refused to show his face to the courtroom.DUBLIN — A San Francisco man was found guilty of murder and use of a knife in connection with a 2019 fatal stabbing on a BART train in Hayward, court records show.
Brim’s lawyer argued that the stabbing was self-defense, painting Williams as the aggressor who “inserted himself” into the situation, and said video shows the two struggled over to the knife just prior to the stabbing. The defense also filed a motion under the Racial Justice Act alleging the prosecution “singled out the sole Black man juror in the jury box and went on to attack his credibility,” and that prosecutors overcharged Brim, who is Black.
