A Baltimore jury has acquitted a man of all charges in the 2014 killing of the transgender sister of Detroit Pistons forward Reggie Bullock.
The Baltimore Sun reported that Shawn Oliver of Hagerstown, Maryland, was acquitted of all charges Thursday.
Oliver, 46, was charged with first-degree murder in the July 2014 stabbing death of 26-year-old Mia Henderson in West Baltimore.
Investigators found Oliver's DNA under Henderson's fingernails. But defense attorney Isabel Lipman said Oliver and Henderson had consensual sex the night before Henderson's body was found. Lipman said phone records indicate that Oliver returned to Hagerstown while Henderson was still alive.
Oliver is currently serving a 10-year sentence for a 2015 drug conviction.
Bullock tweeted about the verdict on Thursday:
NOT GUILTY. 💔 #standupforMIA
