Daniels III Harry

Tammie,<br>Your son was accused of Second Degree Murder and Attempted Second Degree Murder arising from a shooting that occurred at a trail ride in Tangipahoa Parish, docket number 2002629, along with eight other individuals.<br>In addition to that matter, your son was also facing the following charges in separate docket numbers:<br>Docket No. 2102358: Assault by drive-by shooting and aggravated criminal damage to property<br>Docket No. 2002334: Two counts of obstruction of justice to second degree murder<br>Docket No. 2000932: Possession of Schedule II controlled substances<br>Docket No. 2102100: Possession with intent to distribute marijuana, illegal possession of a firearm, and aggravated flight from an officer<br>My representation was limited solely to the Second Degree Murder and Attempted Second Degree Murder case under docket number 2002629.<br>As a direct result of my advocacy, your son’s case was severed from the co-defendants, and he was able to plead guilty to the reduced charges of conspiracy to commit second degree murder and conspiracy to commit attempted second degree murder. He received a sentence of ten (10) years on each count.<br>Given your son’s criminal history and the number of other pending felony charges, this plea agreement—which both you and your son approved—saved him from a potential life sentence. All of the information outlined above is a matter of public record.<br>Throughout the proceedings, both you and your son requested a bond reduction. I filed and argued for that request; however, it was denied by the court.<br>Based on the facts of the case, the evidence presented, and your son’s overall exposure, I am not aware of any additional action that could have reasonably produced a better outcome.<br><br>I can make the documents available to you are anyone else who would like to review. <br><br>Respectfully,<br><br>Harry Daniels<br>Attorney at Law
