ST. LOUIS (KMOX) - Trial got underway Monday in federal court for Anthony "T-T" Jordan, a St. Louis man accused of committing numerous homicides as a part of drug ring.
Jordan is alleged to be a part of the Adrian lemons Criminal Enterprise, operating a network of cocaine stash houses in North City and North County.
Jordan was charged with nine counts of possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime in which a death resulted, one count of conspiracy to distribute and possess with the intent to distribute cocaine, and one count of possession of firearms in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime by prosecutors with the U.S. Attorney's Office with the Eastern District of Missouri.
During their opening statement, prosecutors say they have witnesses to Jordan's killings and an associate who will testify against him.
Attorneys for Jordan say the federal government's case is full of holes and lacks physical evidence to tie Jordan to the homicides.
The trial is expected to last around three weeks.
