Witness In Joe McKnight Murder Has Vital Evidence But Has Not Been Contacted

Just a day after a press conference was held by Jefferson Parish Sheriff Newell Normand, telling the press and community that Ronald Gasser did not stand over Joe McKnight’s body and shoot him, a new witness may be able to somewhat prove otherwise. So much for that “the witness’ account was factually incorrect” excuse, eh?

A witness has come forward to say that after Gasser shot McKnight, he exited his vehicle and stood over McKnight’s body. She then distinctly remembers Gasser yelling, “I told you I was going to f**k you up.” This witness also has a photo that may prove this.

This is not the same witness that spoke to NOLA.com and despite Sheriff Normand saying that investigators are still trying to track down witnesses, this witness says she gave cops her info and hasn’t heard from them since.

The witness that spoke to NOLA.com gave a similar account of what happened. The only difference is she says Gasser shot McKnight one more time while standing over him. Otherwise their accounts are pretty consistent. Regardless, Gasser has not been charged with a crime yet.

The new witness says moments after the shooting, Gasser put the gun on top of his car and paced back and forth for a while. He then took the gun and put it inside of his car while waiting for police to arrive. When cops arrived he informed them that the gun was in the vehicle.
