Assistant Attorney General Leanne Robbin presented surveillance video and pictures of the gun that Damion Butterfield allegedly used to shoot Derald 'Darry' Coffin and Annabelle Hartnett in April 2022.

Annabelle Hartnett has never named the man who shot her in Portland last April, but prosecutors say other witnesses will identify Damion Butterfield as the gunman.

Damion Butterfield's trial on a murder charge is scheduled to begin Wednesday. He's accused of killing Derald Coffin during a robbery in April.
