He began trial three years after he was arrested in March, 1995. During the trial, Steven Hayne, the medical examiner who conducted the autopsy, came to the conclusion that he found several marks that resembled bite marks. They later came to the conclusion that it was "indeed and without a doubt" done by Brewer. Defense then brought in Dr. Richard Souviron, a licensed dentist who confirmed that they were indeed not bite marks but instead insect bites from being left out in the river for multiple days. Brewer later was convicted of capital murder and sexual battery on March 24, 1995, and sentenced to death. His conviction was practically entirely based on questionable marks on the body.

In 2001, there was a advanced DNA testing on semen founded in 1992 from the victim's body. When the results came back it ruled Brewer as a possible perpetrator and revealed an unknown male profile. The following year Brewer's conviction was vacated, and was switched from death penalty to pre-trial detention. It took five years, in 2007 for a new trial and found that the correct suspect was  Justin Albert Johnson. On February 15, 2008, Brewer was set free and his charges were dropped, he spent a total of 13 years in prison.

The trial for Atkins happened the same year in 2002, and when it came to the part of Atkins getting his punishments he relied one witness to help him. This witness was a foresnic psychologist who testified that Atkins was mildly mentally disabled, making him not a candidate for the death penalty. The jury sentenced Atkins to death but the Virgina Supreme Court ordered a second sentence hearing due to the trial court had used a misleading verdict form. The same forensic psychologist testified again but this time the state rebutted Atkins’ intelligence. The jury for the second time sentenced Atkins to the death penalty.

The Supreme Court of Virginia had reject the defenses claim that Atkins was slightly mentally retarded due to his IQ test score, on which he received a 58. The Commonwealth of DNA evidence had found related blood samples in Nesbitt's truck which indicated that Atkins and Nesbitt were the sources of that blood in the victims car. Atkins and Jones were drinking and smoking weed at home before the crime took place, which showed a huge increase in probability it was them. Towards the end, both Atkins and Jones both admitted to taking part in the crime, but both said it was the other who shot the gun.
