FLINT -- Opening arguments were heard Wednesday in the trial of DeVontrae Benton.
He's the man accused in the shooting death of 6-year old Jonaries Holden.
Holden's family says it is confident that Benton was the one that pulled the trigger. The family of Benton says there's no way he could have.
Jonaries was six-year old when he died in November of 2010. Investigators say he was riding in the back of his father's car with his twin brother and a two-year old.
Investigators say Benton and Jonaries' father were arguing over a $60 loan when shots were fired around 10:00 p.m.. Prosecutors say Benton was the shooter and was actually aiming for Jonaries father.
Thursday the prosecution called several witnesses to the stand including two forensic experts from the Michigan State Police. Jonaries brother ,Quinaries and his mother, Marchand Williams also testified.
Quinaries testified he was sleeping during the incident but heard three gun shots.
Williams testified that Jonaries father called her the night of the shooting screaming that Jonaries had been shot.
Williams told NBC25 she would not have been able to testify without the support of her family. She says needs to be strong for her other children.
"I have two more boys that I have to look after and I have to try and steer them out of harms way."
