Michael Drejka gives jailhouse interview after Markeis McGlockton shooting

Jury selection begins Monday in the trial of Michael Drejka.

Drejka is charged with manslaughter for shooting and killing Markeis McGlockton on July 19, 2018.

The case is expected to draw national interest.

--
BACKGROUND: Britany Jacobs was parked in a handicap spot with her 3-year-old and 4-month-old while her boyfriend and their 5-year-old son went into the Circle A Food Store on Sunset Point Road that afternoon in Clearwater, Fla.

Michael Drejka, a regular customer at the convenience store, confronted Jacobs for being parked in a reserved spot. She claims he began yelling and telling her to move her car.

“He wanted somebody to be angry at," Jacobs told Good Morning America. "He just wanted someone to fight him."

At that point, Markeis McGlockton and the couple's 5-year-old son walked back outside, and McGlockton noticed the ongoing confrontation. McGlockton walked over and shoved Drejka to the ground. According to Jacobs, he told Drejka to back away from her. Seconds later, Drejka pulled out a pistol and shot McGlockton once in the chest.

McGlockton collapsed in front of his 5-year-old. He died at the hospital.

In an interview with the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office, Drejka claimed McGlockton was stepping toward him when Drejka fired the gun. But, according to autopsy and investigative documents obtained by 10News, McGlockton was backing up and turning away at the time he was shot.
