A 65-year-old man stabbed a 35-year-old man to death in a lovers' spat that turned deadly, according to a deputy city prosecutor.

The suspect's attorney says the killing was in self-defense.

Joel C. Allen is on trial in Circuit Court for second-degree murder for the July 17, 2008, stabbing of Jason Namauu. The two were sitting in Allen's parked car under the Keeaumoku Street overpass next to Cartwright Neighborhood Park.

Namauu was a transgender male who was also known as Jaylynn. Emergency responders and hospital staff initially thought Namauu was female because he was dressed as a woman.
