Bay Area author of Please Break the Law' goes on trial for alleged murder
Briefly

Nicolas Adjuder, an author advocating unorthodox life advice, faces serious legal troubles including murder charges for allegedly killing his brother during a confrontation. Having spent years in jail unable to pay bail, he claims his innocence, arguing that police planted evidence and that one of the gunshot wounds attributed to him was actually from a medical mishap. His defense team struggles as Adjuder's mental state raises concerns, complicating his case in front of the jury and limiting his arguments.
Mr. Adjuder is unwell, defense attorney Matthew Fregi told jurors Tuesday, as his client lowered his head to a courtroom desk a few feet away.
Adjuder claims he shot at his brother in self-defense during a heated argument but insists he did not hit him fatally.
