Except this case is a little different. ST didnt kill anyone one, he "might" have pulled a gun on other criminals. Hmm...interesting. I understand where you are going with this, but its not nearly that big of a case, and he should get off. If you look at some other cases in FL, we all know they have strict gun laws, but many have gotten off, and those are regular joes. ST will be fine, and taking a felony is the worst thing one can do. You lose certain freedoms others have, the three strike rule, it always sticks on your record, for jobs, etc. and if ST is innocent or the state doesnt have enough evidence, then why take a felony? He also has to sit out 4 games i think.
