An FBI agent and a body shop owners are scheduled to testify Friday in the ongoing murder trial in federal court in Newark of ex-fed prosecutor Paul Bergrin, who once represented rap stars and drug kingpins, the Newark Star-Ledger reported.
Bergin, 55, is accused of orchestrating the 2004 murder of a government informant Kemo Deshawn McCray.
The government contends that Bergrin told a drug gang member “No Kemo, no case” after one of their associates got busted on cocaine charges, the Star-Ledger reported. Bergrin is representing himself.

Bergrin said in opening statements that some witnesses were lying to get lesser sentences.
