Bun B testified first on Thursday in the sentencing phase about the attack at his and Queenie’s Third Ward home.
The Freemans said Jackson forced his way into their home and put a gun to Queenie’s head to rob them and steal their car. Bun B, who was upstairs, grabbed a gun and came downstairs. He opened fire on Jackson, who by then was behind the wheel of a car in the family garage.
"I proceeded to unload my weapon," Bun B testified. "He fell out of the car. He threw his gun down. I started fighting with him. My wife came through the garage door. She started screaming."
The Freemans testified that Jackson pushed his way into their home and held Queenie with a gun at point-blank range.
Queenie was so distraught at seeing her attacker in court Thursday that the judge called a recess. Jackson listened to her testimony from a different room.
"He said '(Expletive), give me everything you got,'" Queenie testified.
She also testified about the punishment she wanted in the case.
"Time in the penitentiary so he can see how it feels to get robbed of your freedom," she said.
While on the stand, Queenie talked about the psychological damage that she suffered. She said she never returned to that house. The couple has since moved to Fort Bend County and has private security.
Later, as defense witnesses were called, Jackson's father was on the stand and that's when Jackson had an outburst.
Jackson’s father said his son was a standout high school football player who had everything, including two cars and a moped, but he wasn't disciplined because he wanted to be a friend and not a father.
Jackson’s parents also testified that their son has an IQ of 81 and mental health issues.
Jackson was wounded in the shootout and then fled to a hospital, where he was arrested. Two more defense witnesses are scheduled to testify Friday morning. The judge will then issue a statement.
