Regardless of whether he's eventually cleared, his legal expenses will be high, and he'll probably have to accept a plea bargain in order to not be completely ruined. This sucks.
and on top of all that, even if he is acquitted, he will face a civil suit along with the owner of the store.
I’d love to see the store surveillance video of this action because it sounds to me like it was a running gun battle, two perps verses the store employee. He is lucky to be alive but will be ruined for life with all the court actions. I hope he has an adequate defense fund so he can have decent representation...
This prosecutor is probably betting that an inner-city jury will convict the clerk of “shooting while Ay-rab.”
Isn't that what the police are trained to do and what they in fact often do?
