Charges Against Taylor: Sit Tight, It's Not Over Yet
Despite the prediction by Sean Taylor's defense attorney that the prosecution against Sean likely will not proceed past the arraignment, sit tight - it's not over yet. Charges are rarely filed in any jurisdiction unless a prosecutor believes that the evidence is sufficient to obtain a conviction.
Although Taylor's attorney may present the D.A. with evidence before the arraignment that Taylor did not commit the crimes of simple battery and aggravated assault, such a meeting is not a trial - it is just a meeting. Right now, Taylor's agent is waging a battle in the press, not the courtroom. As noted above, charges are rarely filed in any jurisdiction unless a prosecutor believes that he will be able to negotiate a plea or obtain a conviction. Regardless of whether Taylor's attorney has affidavits or other such evidence indicating that Taylor did not commit a crime, it is highly unlikely that the charges will now simply be dropped. Just as we shouldn't rush to conclude that Taylor is a dead-man-walking, don't rush to the conclusion that Taylor is about to go free. The Washington Times and the Washington Post are simply repeating what Taylor's attorney has told them, they are not offering us any sort of legal opinion/expertise. So, hold tight, in all likelihood, this Taylor mess won't be over for some time. |
