Charleston Murder Trial Continues

{Charleston, West Virginia}...Bradie Dunlap, who was beaten with a baseball bat and in a hospital for nearly a week, took the stand Tuesday in the murder trial of Kenneth Carter. Carter is accused of killing Ronald Forton in July in an apartment on Charleston's West Side. Dunlap testified he saw Carter pick up the bat and attack his roommate, but defense attorney Chris Hamilton accused Dunlap of wavering from his earlier testimony. Dunlap said he and Forton were lovers. Prosecutors say Carter believed Forton was hitting on his wife, leading him to attack his roommates. Dunlap also described himself as a paranoid schizophrenic who has hallucinations and admitted the roommates routinely drank too much and fought with each other. During cross examination, Dunlap admitted it was possible someone else may have been responsible for the beatings. He also pointed out the three roommates were the only ones home at the time everything happened, and Carter was not injured like the other two.
