People v. SH
Our Client was charged with Unlawful Use of a Weapon - 1000 Feet of a Park. The Client was looking at 2-5 years in prison. We took the case to trial and the Police officer testified that a witness told her that she saw our Client playing with the gun at a park bench. Unfortunately, the report she wrote did not indicate that the witness saw the gun, but instead only "heard the slide rack." The Officer then allegedly sped her squad toward our Client at over 20 miles an hour in the park and was able to stop without skidding inches from our Client. Despite being told that our Client had a gun and testifying that she saw the gun while approaching in her vehicle, she did not draw her weapon for her own protection. Our Client was found Not Guilty.
