People v. TD - Felony Aggravated Unlawful Use of a Weapon
Our Client was charged with Felony Aggravated Unlawful Use of a Weapon. The Police claimed to have seen our Client along with several other males drinking an amber colored liquid from clear plastic cups. Believing that a violation of Drinking on the Public Way was occurring, 7 squads and 15+ officers began to chase the males, who scattered. Our Client was allegedly caught in a building courtyard placing a gun on the ground. After being arrested, our Client allegedly made a confession and the gun was sent to forensics for testing and analysis. None of the incident was recorded on body cameras or squad dash cameras. None of the alleged alcohol was preserved or tested. Fingerprint testing of the gun came back negative for our Client's prints. The alleged confession wasn't recorded in any way -- no video, no audio, no written statement. We took our Client's case to Jury Trial and the verdict was a unanimous NOT GUILTY!
