First Degree Murder By Firearm With Gang Enhancements
Client was accused of being the shooter while riding a bicycle in a cross-racial murder with Gang and Firearm Enhancements in South Los Angeles, which was prosecuted by 2 Hard Core Gang District Attorneys. There were 3 female survivors in the vehicle who testified at trial and Client was charged with an attempted murder for each and shooting at a vehicle with the same enhancements. The Police recovered Client’s DNA on a bicycle left in the street, part of the incident was captured on video and a firearm was found at the crime scene allegedly dropped by the shooter. In addition, the murder was tied to a high-profile case within the local community.
Nicholas Rosenberg got a DNA expert and thoroughly cross-examined their DNA expert and put on an affirmative case calling a firearms expert and 2 gang experts at trial. The Judge excluded the defense that the victim of the shooting was going to testify against the Police in a wrongful death lawsuit for, so the jury did not hear the full backstory.
RESULT: NOT GUILTY!
