If he wanted to wear heels that day, he was going to wear heels.

But he was more than just that.

And that's why Ago called Jay's mother, Stephanie, to the stand.

What did you want the jurors to take away from your words?

I wanted them to see that I was a mother, that was for sure, that something had happened with my child, and that he was no longer here with us.

Stephanie told the jury she knew something was wrong when she didn't get that birthday phone call.

She also told the jury she had access to his credit card and bank accounts, and all activities stopped on July 8, 2022.

As you were up there, what gave you strength?

The support of my family.

Looking out at my children and my husband, knowing that they were there.

And who is it a picture of?

I apologize.

It's my son, Jaylee.

This was his first day in his first job when he first graduated high school.

I've always said that I admire her strength to do it.

The strength that God gave her to just get up there and do that, I saw as a hero.

I knew I had to do this for Jay.

I had to be a voice for him.

Next, the prosecution had to prove that Tim Harrington murdered Jay to protect his own reputation.

Jay's friend, Khalid Fears, told the jury how he warned Jay not to hook up with a guy who was on the down low.
