Shoots neighbor on Lone Jack Road in Encinitas
He told the interrogating deputies he wanted to go and "show who's boss" - AFTER shooting the victim a SECOND time in the head? After he admits upgrading to a .44 (which used to be the largest handgun in the US before the Desert Eagle .50). That second shot MAY show premeditation. The first shot MAY have been reasonable in his mind but the second shot was likely an intent to kill. And his comments about "stopping a big guy" sound like he was describing the victim himself. Did the defendants counsel at least attempt to file a motion to suppress his recorded statement? Has the public defenders office used investigators to find the other "witnesses" allegedly hired at Home Depot that day? There may be videotape of Villikin picking them up or going through a drive through with them for breakfast or something? I've been in that position myself. Fortunately I didn't shoot the guy (who kept coming after I asked him to stop).— July 13, 2013 2:04 p.m.
Do you know how much trouble you can get in with a shotgun?
After a nearly one year investigation, last week the California State Bar Office of the Chief Trial Counsel formally filed a Notice of Disciplinary Charges against attorney Richard Huffman after reviewing the evidence and the allegations of Huffman's client abandonment. He was charged with failing to communicate, failing to return the file and failing to perform. The case is pending before the California State Bar Court in Los Angeles. Huffman declined to settle the matter (through his third attorney on the matter, David Carr) citing the pending civil case as doing so would have been tantamount to a complete admission of wrongdoing. The State Bar receives thousands of attorney complaints every year, understandably only a small fraction are prosecuted. If Huffman is convicted, the California State Bar will most likely recommend he be given a stayed (suspended) one year suspension and three years probation. Would you knowingly hire an attorney who had a history of failing to perform (if the charges are proven) PARTICULARLY when doing so was essential to protecting your freedom?— July 11, 2013 10:10 a.m.
