The prosecution of three men charged with the murder of an off-duty cop may take yet another oddball twist, as lawyers for the defense seek to look inside a decade-old video game console for crucial evidence in the 2011 slaying of Chicago Police Officer Clifton Lewis.
Representatives from Sony next month will appear in a Cook County courtroom to testify about whether data from an obsolete PlayStation 3 might show if one of the accused gunmen in Lewis’ murder was, as he has contended, at home playing NBA 2K12 the night Lewis was killed in a botched robbery at an Austin convenience store.
