Brannon alleges Tree said "I'm going to beat this case" and get out

Brannon testified about a conversation he overheard between Tree and an inmate named Q. Brannon interjected into their conversation.  This was yelling back and forth and Brannon was in his cell. Brannon said he yelled at Tree to "shut up" and stop "bragging."

Brannon said he called Tree a "wierdo" and told Tree "he creeped on girls" and "shoots 17 year old kids." Brannon was referring to Christina Schwarz, as the 17 year old. He found that detail from media and others telling him personally.

Brannon was the young man who challenged Tree to a fight when he was groping Taraya Rives at Rhett August's house. He witnessed Tree "hitting on her" and later overhearing that Tree would not leave her alone. He also said Rhett August told him that he would tell Tree to back off and that he was making Taraya uncomfortable.

Brannon also said that he told Tree that he had "no remorse."

Brannon alleges Tree said to him, "I am not going to make the same mistake I did with Rhett. I 'm going to get you in the head."

A correctional officer intervened and told them to be quiet. Brannon said it was Officer Gilbert Resendez who testified yesterday that he over heard conversations between inmates, including Tree, but could not comment on specifics.
