Fight over Madden football video game led to homicide; Wichita man Benjamin Redgate on trial for allegedly killing Luke German
There’s a mess of a murder trial going on now in Wichita that stems from an accusation of cheating between two men playing the Madden football video game last October.
The Wichita Eagle has the sad, sad story of Benjamin Redgate’s trial for second-degree murder (Redgate’s older brother, Christopher, has already pleaded guilty to second-degree murder).
The incident started when Luke German, 22, accused the Redgate brothers of cheating after losing a game. German was reportedly intoxicated (he showed up to the Redgates’ home with beer and K2). German and Chris Redgate got into a shoving match, and Redgate put German in a headlock.
