Archie Niles Jr., an investigator with the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office, testified that defendant Damien Washam later told him that he “lost it” when he picked up a samurai sword and began slashing.
“He basically stated that he lost it at that point in time. … He just overacted,” Niles testified at a preliminary hearing.
Mobile County District Judge George Hardesty determined that prosecutors had presented sufficient evidence to send the case to a grand jury.
