Former Marine gets jammed up in NYC carrying firearm !!

Recommended Posts

It was in the Post yesterday, interesting. Seems the prosecutors wanted this to go away quietly with misdemeanors but this young man said NOPE. God bless him, his lawyer and the Marines!

This marine definitely brought the right weapon to this fight.

 

His attorney, Mark Bederow, is the same attorney that got Jonathan Ryan (the FL landscaper that was caught with his "illegal" gun in the glove box) off scott free through jury nullification. Mr. Ryan was dead-pan guilty. But, the jury acquitted him. Jury told old Cy Vance and his band of miscreants to go fck themselves.

 

This is a HUGE feat, because if a lawyer tells the jury to go through with "jury nullification," that is an instant mistrial (at least in NY, it is), and the bar association will likely look to sanction you, becuase you are supposed to KNOW that you can't do that. So, the fact that Bederow has accomplished this once is great. I would LOVE to watch him pull it off, again.

He previously stated that he wouldn't take any plea deal and would fight it out in court. He gave up on that course of action.

 

Yes, still a great outcome for him personally, but opportunity lost to bring in even more attention on NYC's punitive gun laws.

 

Opportunity lost or not, I would say I'd rather not gamble the principal of the matter with what the other outcome could have been..

Sorry but your Personal needs are going to outstrip that kind of thing when it's YOUR neck on the block. There is a REASON Aitken's attorney advised him to not let NJ2AS use him as a Poster-boy, or hold a Rally for him...Which was shown when his sentence was Commuted.
