How can they get off from an assault charge when the shooters family wrote statements saying that my fiancé was shooting?

Answered by attorney Stephen Lewis Freeborn (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Freeborn Law Offices P.S.
I cannot answer your question without more facts. I suspect that the officers have more information than what you might be telling me. It also sounds like you were not present during the incident, in which case, you question to me is based upon what people told you. I would tend to believe that your fiance is not telling you the "whole" story. My advice to your fiance: get an attorney.
