At trial he claimed his motive was to prevent him from abusing his grandson. White claimed that he found a picture in Ruboyianes' camera of his then 4-year-old grandson naked, standing next to a man shown only from the torso down, who had an erect penis. His claim was entirely uncorroborated, as he also claimed that he destroyed the picture. There was no other evidence offered that the boy had been abused. Despite that, the judge allowed the allegation to be leveled during the trial against Ruboyianes, who, being dead, was not able to defend himself at all against the charge. White shot Ruboyianes three times just two days after losing custody of the boy to him. The jury saw his smear attempts for what they were, and convicted White of murder. | |||
