Family of slain Marine from Rota wants justice as trial begins

Family of slain Marine from Rota wants justice as trial begins

As the trial on his son's murder case begins this week, all that David M. Santos of Rota wants is for justice to prevail for the late U.S. Marine Corporal Dave Michael Maliksi Santos.

The young Santos was allegedly murdered by a fellow Marine while deployed to Afghanistan almost a year ago.

David Santos said he will be leaving the CNMI today for Camp Lejeune in North Carolina for the trial that begins on June 16, a month before the one-year anniversary of his son's death.

“What really hurts me is that I can only hear one side of the story. I can only hear the defendant, but not my son's side of the story. I really feel sad. I hope justice will be served,” David Santos told Saipan Tribune in a phone interview from Rota.

The trial is expected to last three weeks.
