Xandria Harris took the stand in her own defense, claiming years of abuse by her boyfriend Darius Sullivan drove her actions during the deadly shootout with two police officers. She testified she was held at gunpoint, forced to comply with Sullivan’s commands, and feared for her life and children’s safety. Body cam footage shows Sullivan firing at officers as Harris opened the door — but she insists she didn’t assist him in his struggle with Sgt. Rittmanic. Her defense highlights her mental health struggles and hidden abuse, while prosecutors push back with evidence suggesting she actively participated — including allegedly holding a weapon magazine and later collecting ammunition. The trial is nearing its end with closing arguments imminent.
