Hurricane Chris trial continues into fifth day; former girlfriend testifies

SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) — Hurricane Chris was back in court for day five of his murder trial March 11.

Christopher Dooley, a 34-year-old Shreveport native and rapper who goes by the name Hurricane Chris, and 32-year-old Danzeria O. Farris Jr. were seen having an exchange at a Texaco gas station in the 2600 block of Hollywood Avenue in June 2020. Dooley is charged with second-degree murder and illegal possession of stolen things, the latter of which is related to a silver Mercedes.

Dooley’s former girlfriend testified in court Friday, and she stated her name was on the title of the Mercedes. After an alleged falling out during a trip in California, she said she knew their 3-month relationship was coming to an end, so she attempted to get the car she owned from Dallas, but the car had disappeared. She then filed a police report with Dallas PD.

The report did not include Dooley’s name, according to her testimony, but she did give police the address of Dooley’s child’s mother in Frisco, Texas, and told police that Dooley could possibly have the vehicle.
