(Beaver County, PA) Deliberations are still underway presently in the trial of Jason Banks, Jr., who is accused of allegedly killing his girlfriend, twenty-year-old Treonna Washington in an Aliquippa alley on August 17th, 2024. Banks made a claim in the trial that his roommate, Shakeirs Foster, was the one who shot and killed Washington over a window that Washington broke. However, Foster was the person who testified in the trial that Banks shot and killed Washington because he was a witness with Banks and Washington in an alley on Reed Street in Aliquippa before Washington was killed. A witness testified at the beginning of the trial for Banks that a party occurred with Washington and some of her friends on August 16th, 2024 when Banks showed up at the apartment of Washington in Linmar Terrace in Aliquippa. Washington was found dead the next day in an alley. Today is the day when deliberations in the trial of Banks in Beaver County will continue.
