2:35
eat and so I was closer to Royal Oak and there was a restaurant
2:40
that was open and I'm not familiar with Royal Oak and its
2:44
streets. So I was just trying to find
2:46
that place to eat and so I was driving, I guess I had missed
2:51
it. And I was, and I turn on my turn
2:55
signal to find it and I was I was driving slow.

There was no other cars on the road and so I got pulled over.

Yes. In the officer will testify
7:24
first space. Management.
7:29
I observe the vehicle traveling eastbound, 12 mile run, a cell
7:32
or a light through Campbell. It was all captured on dash
7:35
camera. If you would like me to show
7:38
that You want to show it? I can I can pull up right now.
7:46
Sure. Just if you could manage, I just
7:49
let me know if you can see the screen share.
8:13
Registry. Can you see this screen share?
8:17
Yeah. You.
8:38
Here. Magistrate.
8:42
It's up. There's no indication that.
8:50
It's trying to turn on. There you go.
9:08
Is it up now? Yes, okay.
9:13
So we're going, you're Northbound on Campbell
9:15
approaching 12 Mile Road here. Correct.
9:19
Yeah. And right there, like just
9:28
turned red right there. And then the traffic stop was
9:38
initiated. The traffic stop was initiated
9:43
oh, can you back it up? Us.
10:10
Okay. The car was going.
10:15
Eastbound on 12 Mile. Correct.
10:18
And we see the car. Enter the intersection.
10:24
From the West going east. And it appears that the lights
10:29
were Northbound. Campbell is red.
10:33
Correct. What color was the light for?
10:43
Eastbound, 12 mile. It was it was red Magistrate.
10:48
I don't know if you could see the video or not from the angle.
10:51
It is a little blurry. The light was red before she
10:55
entered the intersection. Can you go back to it?
10:59
Yes, registry. Are you able to stop it?
11:08
Okay, so it's pretty much for Northbound.
11:10
Yes. And the light for Eastbound and
11:13
Westbound is yellow right now. I see that and then it just
11:18
turned red right there. She hasn't entered the
11:21
intersection yet. But is now solid red proceed
11:24
through the intersection. And then the Northbound left.
11:27
Turn lane, had a green light before she was out of the
11:31
intersection. and, This has a delayed green, so it's red for
11:36
both sides for about a second or a second and a half.
11:39
Correct Ministry and I with the looking at it again, I could see
11:46
the light for eastbound traffic. Yes.
11:52
Okay, thank you. Yes.
12:00
Is probably. Yes, so does.
12:05
Um, I enter when the light was yellow and again, if the
12:11
officer, please can see how much I was going through.
12:15
I was very slow. I don't know if it catches very
12:18
slow. So for somebody to speed on the
12:20
red light, it should be very fast.
12:22
I was literally slow. And at that time, even though
12:25
now is March at that time of the incident, we were experiencing
12:31
the winter storm and was ice on the street I ever wear.
12:37
And I told, I remember telling the officer, I couldn't stop for
12:41
me to stop, right? Like, literally a break, like
12:45
heartbreak. It was very dangerous.
12:47
I tried to stop. And again, when I tried to stop,
12:51
it was yellow, and the car just went through.
12:53
I stopped on the side of the road trying to explain to office
12:57
her. He was like, you know what, I'm
13:00
still gonna give you a ticket as I'm trying to A kids were there
13:04
in the car. I was not speeding.
13:06
I was not doing doing the Heartbreak was even more
13:11
dangerous because I was on the street, I'm not just Peter, I'm
13:14
not you able to see the tape. Here the tape.
13:20
Were you able to see the film that the officer show?
13:24
Yeah. Yeah.
13:25
Did you not see your car going through a red light?
13:29
So, I'm trying to explain sometimes when you stop the
13:34
light turned red for you. Before you entered the
13:37
intersection. I thought Mi there is 35 miles
13:42
an hour. A light is Amber for at least
13:46
one, second for, every 10 miles per hour of the speed limit,
13:49
that light had been Amber for you.
13:52
Before you got to the intersection.
13:54
It was at least four seconds, since the late turned Amber
13:58
because it had already turned red before you crossed the
14:01
cross. I agree.
14:03
No, man. I'm saying that you agree, but
14:07
you're explaining it away. It doesn't matter if the ice is
14:10
on the road, it doesn't matter if it's raining, you have to
14:13
stop for a red light. No.
14:15
No. Absolutely.
14:15
But when stopping gets way more danger, that's what I'm saying.
14:19
When I know it's more dangerous and I was right there, man.
14:25
The film, I know please. Oh yeah, yeah.
14:29
Just one second please. So I was trying to stop when
14:32
it's yellow already, I Was preparing to stop.
14:35
If you see on the camera I don't know if you can literally see
14:40
that. That position I was trying to
14:42
stop and meanwhile I will stopping the car was not
14:45
stopping because the ice on the street and then And then the
14:51
intersection was not stop. Right there is a little bit.
14:55
You know what I mean? There are some stops right there
14:58
and there are some gaps and then from the the time I stopped and
15:03
until 2, the end of that section was a little bit.
15:07
More than usual. So it big intersection.
15:10
I'm in. I was trying to stop
15:12
intersection map. Huh, it's a standard
15:15
intersection. There's two lanes, going all
15:18
four directions and there is a left, turn lane.
15:22
That sounds good. When I first pressed the brake
15:26
feel to the other side of the road, it looked like I passed on
15:31
that red light by didn't. I was trying to, you know,
15:37
you're explaining what happened by saying that you couldn't
15:41
stop. But the part yeah because of
15:46
that because sometimes it doesn't matter if it's because
15:50
of the ice. You're supposed to drive at a
15:53
speed that you can drive. Drive safely that you can stop
15:58
safely in time. If you're driving too fast to
16:01
stop at a red light oh, well too fast you told me you could stop.
16:08
If you can't stop your driving too fast.
16:09
No, no. My car couldn't stop.
16:11
Tell me know. The car could have stopped, not
16:15
know you're the driver. It's not the car, it's the
16:17
driver. Well how many accidents is just
16:21
because of the car they caught us top of the ice.
16:23
They couldn't break no. There was no crash, there was no
16:29
action there. You have to see my car.
16:34
It goes straight to your car. Go right through the red light.
16:38
I know but you see the discussions over?
16:43
Finally, it was not my fault, that's your fault.
16:47
If you're the driver, you're responsible for what happens.
16:51
Everybody on the road shares, the same, whether everybody on
16:54
the road shape shares the same visibility.
16:57
They all share the same surface conditions.
16:59
It's your job is right to accommodate.
17:03
Your approach to driving. to the conditions that exist then and
17:08
there if you go through a red light, Judge I've tried to argue
17:15
or anything. I'm trying to give my my version
17:18
your version doesn't support with reality man.
17:21
You you ran a red light, pay the ticket.
17:23
It's 1:30 Can we work on? On the point?
17:29
I don't want to lose any point. Please.
17:31
The points. Don't come from the court.
17:33
They come from the Secretary of State.
17:37
I have nothing to do with the points.
17:38
I can't make them better or worse.
17:39
If I wanted to make them better. I couldn't, I want to make them
17:42
worse. I couldn't.
17:43
They are with the secretary of state.
17:45
Says, they are hearing is over men.
17:47
The ticket needs to be paid. so, I will say this, Her argument
17:55
is. If she had phrased it right,
17:58
would probably have more validity.
18:02
Intersections are often, I found anyways and all my years up in
18:07
Michigan. Before I came to Arizona, can
18:09
often be more unpredictable than the actual road that you're
18:13
driving on? If she had phrased it, like look
18:17
as I approached the intersection, I started to
18:21
break, I realized how slippery that intersection was and I
18:24
judge that the safest move for me, as I saw no traffic coming
18:28
in the other direction was to go through.
18:31
I could see that and I could make that argument, but the way
18:34
she was making it, I don't think it's stuck.
18:36
Good morning, everybody TCF live.
18:37
It's a Wednesday. Good to have you here.

feed. All right Lake County, Judge
24:23
O'Donnell, try that. the accident, it wasn't knowing
24:30
Could I speak for just a moment on that point here?
24:33
You actually think that if his perception that it wasn't an
24:37
accident that he hit him. I do think that would fall under
24:41
the knowingly because the knowingly refers to making the
24:47
action knowing. I mean, it's not in the here's
24:50
here's what, here's how this stuff goes.

25:07
What the sentence should be because he really did.
25:09
He's going to tell me that he really didn't do it, okay?
25:15
this is how this generally goes, so So if you didn't do this
25:22
stuff, I don't know why you're pleading guilty to it.
25:27
Other than to get it over with which isn't a good reason to get
25:30

41:04

41:15

41:17
paying online. Okay.
41:18
Thank you. All right, thank you.
41:19
All right, let's go on the record.
41:20
I mean let's go off the record already at the record.
41:23
Let's go back here, Adam interpreter.
41:25
Okay, I'm still very confused. How I'm doing the sign language
41:28
of Interpreter, good morning. Good morning.
41:39
Um, you're not able to be in person.
41:42
No, I was booked for this on Zoom.
41:46
Because I understand that first. I'm having a very difficult
41:49
time. Hearing you.
41:50
It's very, very quiet. I'm just unsure how it's going
41:54
to work with you on. Zoom is her client in person?
41:58
Yes, With your client in person, we'd like to German, if that's
42:03
the case drawer, it's difficult enough to be able to hold on
42:06
Console, please. Man, where are you located?
42:09
Are you located in the state of Michigan?
42:10
I'm in Michigan. I'm in Spring.
42:13
Lake Grand Haven, Michigan. oh, We're gonna try it on because
42:21
that's a very expensive mileage that the court will have to pay
42:24
for the sign language interpreter.
42:26
I'm going to presume that. We have that there is a shortage
42:30
of sign language interpreters, which is why one from the west
42:32
side of the state is in Or that, right?
42:36
Yeah, yes, your honor that's accurate.
42:39
Okay. I just need for you to keep your
42:42
volume up on your device because it's still very quiet.
42:44
Oh, I'm going to see if I can adjust it.
42:47
That's much better. I think you just have to get
42:50
closer to your microphone. Okay.
42:57
You're also mine but understand why not, you don't have to zoom
43:01
out, where's your client? In the hallway, right?
43:05
You don't have to zoom on you and your client would be in
43:07
person and your client will be looking up at the screen. for
43:11
the Sign language interpreter, I understand that, but how am I
43:16
supposed to communicate any? Plea offers Etc to my client
43:19
without her being? That's a fair point.
43:20
Correct? Yeah.
43:22
I didn't know if your client had brought somebody with.
43:25
With your with signs with him that sign language that signs as
43:30
well. So that's why I thought he had
43:33
somebody with them but not a certified interpreter.
43:35
Okay, that's why I thought you wouldn't need to go on to zoom,
43:38
but he does have someone with it but I don't know the answer to
43:41
that, but okay, that's fine. Either way.
43:43
Um, I'll have to have you go into the room.
43:47
And then that way your client will be in their with you and he
43:50
can then communicate with The Interpreter.
43:53
That's fine. You're on her Professional
43:57
Standards. Call for a sign language
44:00
interpreter between Council and the client.
44:04
And then another interpreter for proceeding.
44:09
Wait, I'm sorry. What?
44:12
So generally in these situations in these situations, you have a
44:19
sign language interpreter, who interprets between Council the
44:23
attorney and the client and then you have a separate interpreter.
44:29
That interprets for the proceedings.
44:33
Why do there have to be two different interpreters?
44:36
For confidentiality and to remain neutral in the
44:40
proceedings. What takes place between Council
44:45
and the client is confidential. So there are times, we don't
44:50
follow that standard but typically that is the
44:55
professional standard. I am more than happy if it would
44:59
be helpful to be on Zoom with Council and the deaf person and
45:06
then do proceedings. But technically it's it's more
45:10
appropriate to have to interpreters.
45:13
Okay, well, I appreciate that. Um, learning piece today because
45:19
I would presume benefits. That would be the professional
45:22
standard for all interpreters and that's not that anything
45:25
that's been disclosed to us. So that's why I was a bit caught
45:29
off guard, that way. And your honor up with the head,
45:32
I'll speak to my client regarding confidentiality.
45:36
That certainly something that can be waived for perfection in
45:39
our purpose. But okay, find out.
45:41
Okay. so, that's yes. Say that in the state of
45:47
Michigan, There are rules and regulations and you have to be
45:52
indoors. Right, legal works.
45:55
So that's another thing to take into consideration if you have
45:59
an endorsement with the state of Michigan.
46:00
Oh no, no for no no we're very much where that Madame
46:06
interpreter, I wasn't aware of the separate.
46:12
The second, the need for the second interpreter.
46:17
For that purpose. So let's So here we are.
46:26
Well, we're gonna have to not do the ones in the back right now.
46:29
Jerry speak to the people in the back.
46:31
Are those yours? I fucking nobody custody but you
46:33
have classes in prison, right? So we just spent some of that
46:36
before I go back to museums already.
46:39
He was, yes, he's waiting. I spoke to him.
46:41
He's ready to go. Oh, Boundaries.
46:45
Okay, so let's okay. He's got to come back out to the
46:47
main session. Okay.
46:48
Let's handle Mr. Wilcox son, and then I'll put you in a breakout
46:52
room with the typical Plus in the back with Bobby right now,
46:54
this is okay. So I was like, well, we have a
46:58
big time constraint here with with Mr. Serrano then all right.
47:01
Okay. Do you have the book idea?
47:04
All right, so man, I'm interpreter, we're going to go.
47:06
I'm going to do one man and then I will put you in a breakout
47:08
room with the attorney and the client and then let's go on the

We stipulated to the entry. All right.
50:25
Well, I haven't had a chance to read the entire report
50:27
obviously. But um,
50:54
All right, so it's the examiner's opinion that Mr.
50:57
Wilcox does not lack, substantial, capacity to
51:00
appreciate the nature and quality, or wrongfulness of his
51:03
behavior or to conform his behavior to the requirements of
51:06
the law during the legally relevant time.

51:17
Actually, I'm going to press. so, And he was able to respond
51:24
and organized Manner and provide reality based responses as well
51:28
as comply with directives. So therefore, it is the
51:31

51:34
actual disability or statutory Define mental illness at the
51:37
time of the alleged incident offenses.
51:39

1:01:40
that Process Management here to the brain.

1:02:03
this the same condition that it was prior to the crash, aside
1:02:05
from the damage, This was there any work done in between the
1:02:09
crash? And when these pictures were

1:02:44
What did you do in order to get the damages repaired?
1:02:47
Who'd, you talk to well, first, I had to make my chest on me.
1:02:53
Danny, you know, that sharing things, a lot of, you know, But
1:02:59
that's used again, you know? What was?
1:03:02
I didn't need insurance cover, all the names?
1:03:05
Oh, I mean that book coverage. Oh and oh the president you know
1:03:12
the prices and daily are like oh that was generally covered.
1:03:17
So I guess because it's 2007 they don't want to cover the
1:03:20
whole expenses because they really totaled it out but like
1:03:25
you keep the vehicle. Yeah, good thing.
1:03:27
Yeah, that's exactly what they did.
1:03:29
Okay go ahead. Okay okay.
1:03:33
So did you ever take this to an auto shop repair?
1:03:36
Yeah, which auto shop. Just the name A2.
1:03:41
Auto Group mean, anything to you?
1:03:42
Yeah. And when you went to that auto
1:03:48
shop, was it for these damages or something else?
1:03:50
Did they ever provide you with any estimates or invoices
1:03:53
related to the to these repairs? Yes.
1:03:57
And what specifically did you have them try and repair?
1:04:00
Did you ask them to repair was you know, this organization
1:04:03
because I, it's my vehicle. You Need to get.
1:04:09
A picture on the top right side. That's the problem is connected
1:04:15
to the area damages. I'm sure defense counsel from
1:04:21
Marcus people's proposing. It three.
1:04:23
I apologize. I'm going a little bit out of
1:04:24
order here may. I approach the witness man.
1:04:28
Storm handyman, 3, please take a look at that.
1:04:31
Document looking recognize that, what is that document?
1:04:35
That was the first stop. I had gotten my GTA.
1:04:40
And this document, it, what specifically is the document?
1:04:44
So yeah, yeah. And is this a fair and accurate
1:04:50
copy of that invoice or receipt? People moved to admit, what's
1:04:54
been marked as people's proposed exhibit number three.
1:04:56
No three. I have a copy for the court.
1:04:59
The court would like that as well may approach.
1:05:01
Yes. Here.
1:05:10
So start looking at this document on the right hand side
1:05:13
near the top. There's some consensus, a labor
1:05:15
and description as an on the left-hand side as part and
1:05:18
description. What is that?
1:05:20
Or what was being serviced? So the last thing I really
1:05:24
needed to be the diverse school bus driver versus brain.
1:05:27
You know that you didn't place. It was basically.
1:05:31
Oh snap don't. And then we're says total and
1:05:36
balanced due does total. I believe is 1200 and balance
1:05:40
due is zero. What does that mean?
1:05:42
So that means that's pretty much I was in labor for the job.
1:05:46
I guess, what's the difference between those two lines?
1:05:48
Do you know? Different.
1:05:54
Yeah it's just I think that stuff together as one, you know,
1:06:00
they was there a problem with your grandma before this Was
1:06:05
there a problem with the support their cross member before this?
1:06:10
Okay. I got, you know, like I said a
1:06:26
little bit less than he Fun, thank you.
1:06:33
And so sir how much was paid out of pocket to replace that
1:06:36
crossmember? Oh I'm showing defense consoles,
1:06:40
Marx was exhibit. Number six And personal Witness.
1:06:45
For me, propose exhibit, numbers 6.
1:06:47
Do you recognize this documents? And what is that?
1:06:50
That is the main seat received from the bottom.
1:06:54
Again talking about a seat for that.
1:06:56
It was. Yes, it was six and evidence.
1:07:02
Any objection, you know, your arms.
1:07:04
If it's just the court. So, who actually paid this 1200
1:07:17
dollars? Yeah.
1:07:23
Other than that cross member. What other repairs did you get
1:07:26
done? Yeah, well this is right here.
1:07:35
Did you did you ever get an estimate for how much he would
1:07:39
cost to get that done and his wife?
1:07:43
Here he was a cheapest one in Destiny was well, you know, with
1:07:48
all how many different auto shops are dealerships, did you
1:07:52
speak to in order to get an estimate for these repairs?
1:07:55
Sure it's savior, they two of them.
1:07:57
They recommended for me to reach out to those sandwiches which
1:08:01
are today there was to, on my price range.
1:08:03
It was so expensive. Do you remember how much the
1:08:05
estimate was for the, for those two, that your insurance
1:08:08
recommended? The first one, I think, first,
1:08:12
we showed for the first day and I can't tell you.
1:08:19
Okay. Know written estimate from these
1:08:29
other places. No, I'm trying to man, Brooks
1:08:37
the witness. You Ain't turning.
1:08:39
He was the marks you supposed to do you recognize this documents
1:08:45
Yes, I did. What is it?
1:08:46
This is right now. Wait, took his place to get
1:08:50
Sarah. And isn't so is it fair to say?
1:08:54
This is an estimate for that repair.
1:08:57
And is this a fair and accurate copy of the estimate that you've
1:08:59
got from A2? Auto Group for as relates to
1:09:02
these damages people move to admit with Marxist people post
1:09:05
exhibit two into evidence. Oh, you're right.
1:09:13
Yes. Yeah.
1:09:17
So we're looking at this, what was the estimate from a auto
1:09:20
group for the repair to the cab in the body?
1:09:23
I don't know. After I don't see me, you know,
1:09:32
to do the job. What was the quote from the
1:09:37
dealership for how much it would cost to repair your vehicle's
1:09:41
damage for the body, not the crossmember, just the body,
1:09:44
right? So what was oh is that the 4939
1:09:51
64 cents on page two? Okay.
1:09:54
And all of that, how much did you say your insurance would
1:09:56
cover? And I believe that for me, I
1:10:08
personally witness you may Storm.
1:10:10
Handing you with more people to propose exhibits for you.
1:10:14
Recognize that document. Yes, what is it?
1:10:16
So, this is actually this is more of a better number of, you
1:10:20
know, more of the best check was 1932 for my insurance.
1:10:24
But what is this? Document sorry, this is the
1:10:28
definition of things on my truck and is this a fair and accurate
1:10:33
copy of that letter from your insurance?
1:10:36
People move to admit with the Marxist people propose exhibit,
1:10:38
four into evidence. No objection know, you're stupid
1:10:41
for you, but they paid that check to you.
1:10:44
Yes. May I approach to published
1:10:47
report? Yes.
1:10:55
So the amount of that check that Progressive gave to you, is that
1:10:58
the total payment amount on this document that 1932 all right.
1:11:02
and so, When we take the estimate of the 4939 64, from
1:11:10
that would be people, too. How did that 1932 go towards the
1:11:14
4900 estimate? Yes.
1:11:16
So that's Okay, and so how much do you end up actually paying
1:11:23
out of pocket for those repairs? I can support just about a job.
1:11:28
I'm showing defense consoles from March people's proposed
1:11:32
exhibit five. I'm a person witness.
1:11:33
Wait. Sir.
1:11:35
Any new people's proposed exhibit?
1:11:37

1:11:39
Yes, I do. What is it?
1:11:40
This is the receipt. The mechanic Amy for the job for
1:11:44
the care job. And is this a fair and accurate
1:11:46
copy of that receipt for the repairs, for the body damage?
1:11:50
People move to being marked as people's proposed exhibit five
1:11:53
into evidence. You made it permission to
1:11:56
publish? Yes.
1:12:04
So you paid or who paid the actual 3000 dollars on this
1:12:08
receipt. Yes.
1:12:10
All right, so in total that makes the total payments from
1:12:13

1:12:17
older than the auto the A2 Auto Group in the two?
1:12:23
Insurance recommended. Mechanics was there anyone else

1:12:30

1:12:51

1:13:50
I'd be happy by this. Okay.
1:13:52
So I missed three days to my job coming here, you know.
1:13:55
So I mean Bear. I mean, I just saying, I ain't
1:14:03
trying to get. Everybody, I mean it's a shark
1:14:06
for everybody out of, you know. I understand that.
1:14:09
But what are you considering fair?
1:14:11
I'm trying to clarify the last answer you gave I think there
1:14:16
will be Easter bunny jump the 3,000 for the body.
1:14:20
Crossing family. Thank you.
1:14:23
Good morning. I'm gonna remain for you here.
1:14:26
So if there's anything you can't hear me say, or don't
1:14:28
understand, just let me know what else?
1:14:30
Speak up and try to find myself, okay?
1:14:33
okay, so you testified That when you reach out to your insurance,
1:14:38
technically they total of your truck, correct.
1:14:42
Give me the option to go. Okay.
1:14:45
First is getting it fixed. Yeah, just because I was still
1:14:49
paying for the stroke. Let me do this shit.
1:14:51
Okay. And Did.
1:14:56
And you said you have full coverage correct?
1:14:58
Yes. so, if you have full coverage, What is that mean that
1:15:03
your insurance would cover the rest of these repairs outside of
1:15:07
your deductible? If I in my opinion of my
1:15:10
experience, this is Insurance being assurance.
1:15:13
Okay, but you have you have a thousand dollar deductible on
1:15:16
your insurance policy. Yes.
1:15:18
Did you pay that thousand dollars?
1:15:20
I think that's that's what that's what they took away from
1:15:24
the check. The game going.
1:15:24
That's minus you got so basically, They told your truck
1:15:30
out for 2,932.19, and subtracting your deductible from
1:15:36
it. Is that what you're saying?
1:15:37
I think in a way. I think.
1:15:39
So. Yeah.
1:15:40
Okay. So they did well you think so?
1:15:42
That's what they did. They gave you the action.
1:15:45
Total man. Yeah, which means they would
1:15:47
take the truck and pay you money.
1:15:49
Yeah. But they didn't do that.
1:15:52
Yeah. Because you know, I might be my
1:15:55
trucks and what they was gonna understand what you're putting
1:15:59
me, but I'm just trying to get a clarification with your church
1:16:02
company. Insurance company did is They
1:16:06
gave me the option. They paid, what they would pay
1:16:10
Richard 2900 Took your truck holds out.
1:16:17
You got to keep the truck and whatever that was worth.
1:16:21
And they gave you money. So yeah.

1:16:32
13th 2025 correct. Yes sir.
1:16:35
Okay. and, Did you get any estimates before you reached out
1:16:40
to your insurance? Know.
1:16:42
So, How do you know how they came up with the number of what
1:16:48
your truck was worth that? Honestly, I don't know how they
1:16:53
came up with that number. Okay?
1:16:55

1:16:58

1:17:49
vehicle drivable. It's not safe to drive the
1:17:52
Pokemon Center, okay? yeah, you waited and it looks
1:17:58
like and I don't have the exactly the number but the date
1:18:01
of the estimate for the cross number, That stated July 12th.
1:18:06
Correct? Yes.
1:18:08
So you waited after the insurance page you out you
1:18:12
waited an additional two to three weeks.
1:18:15
To have your vehicle checked out.
1:18:18
These was closed. You okay?
1:18:24
Um, but again it's sat there after you received the insurance
1:18:29
check. Correct?
1:18:30
Yes sir. Okay. and then, He later.
1:18:37
And I believe it is. July 17th, that's when you got
1:18:44
the quote for the body repair. Correct license.
1:18:56
I don't know the number that might be.
1:19:00
The 4900. That's people's too.
1:19:05
Do you see that they are? In the 49 page.
1:19:09
Yes, sir. Oh yeah, okay.
1:19:12
So July 17th is when you got that estimate, correct.
1:19:15
Nearly a month after the accident.
1:19:19
And after insurance had, paid you out on this correct?
1:19:24
Yes, sir. Okay. and you're saying, you did
1:19:28
not drive that truck that entire time, Okay, why did you wait?
1:19:33
So oh, I mean it, you know, we say we try to all sit back on
1:19:39
and we said something to cover and they don't And and again,
1:19:45
sure said basically said this truck is not worth any more than
1:19:50
the mornings, right? Yeah, they don't say something.
1:19:56
They didn't actually. And your insurance similar to a
1:20:06
medical provider, correct. They have repair shops that they
1:20:09
choose to work with. My shows did yes and you chose
1:20:13
not to work with any jobs that your insurance works with.
1:20:18
Correct. Yes.
1:20:19
Based on these numbers, we've been a lot more than, you know.
1:20:23
It is about extension is, but if you, but if you so you have full
1:20:28
coverage and if you would have not your insurance, would have
1:20:33
covered the entire thing, correct.
1:20:36
But that's one of the truck. I like how many got like but it
1:20:39
is a truck but you did Total the truck that's why they sent you
1:20:42
to check. That's why you didn't have to
1:20:45
pay your dog, it is each other based on what you know, but you
1:20:49
never paid that will do you. They added that the 1900, right?
1:20:54
So they subtracted it from essentially 200, so you never
1:20:58
actually paid them. Correct.
1:21:00
Insurance. Correct, I haven't made any
1:21:02
insurance, right? So if your insurance would have
1:21:05
prepares how that works and correct me if I'm wrong.
1:21:10
But you pay that thousand dollars and they cover the rest.
1:21:13
That's the point of full coverage correct.
1:21:16
But I don't know. You don't break?
1:21:18
Yes, you would pay the thousand dollars.
1:21:20
Oh, Peter 2, your insurance or to the repair shop as your
1:21:24
course, comfortable experience, company would pay The repair
1:21:29
shop, the rest correct. Yes.
1:21:31
So with the 1990 the 1998. So it's like you said it was
1:21:37
like 29. Know, I think you're
1:21:40
misunderstanding me, sir. If you had paid that the
1:21:44
doctoral, they would your insurance companies Progressive.
1:21:48
They would have paid A2, Auto Group or whatever Auto Group you
1:21:53
had chosen to go. See correct.
1:21:56
He would pay a little bit. Hey you know that but you did
1:22:00
choose to Total your car. Yeah, I mean he told Okay, but
1:22:06
I'm still you know like to say it's they trying to take a lot
1:22:08
of you know I understand that. And collected these trucks.
1:22:14
Place on back. They go up that marks in my
1:22:17
truck only Billy that when they eat the chocolate and it's a
1:22:22
2017. Yeah, but a lot of 2017 trucks
1:22:24
and expensive. so what was the fact that Insurance company, put
1:22:36
a value on that being. Right. they would have paid you
1:22:43
a certain dollar amount, but taking the truck, Well. like, I
1:22:50
mean, I feel like it wasn't Justified conditions.
1:22:55
Okay. I'm not asking what you feel,
1:22:58
but your insurance company said. is, we're going to, we would
1:23:03
give you 2900 for the truck. That's really what they said to
1:23:10
you. Instead give me the check,
1:23:12
right? Well, they wouldn't give me 2900
1:23:15
taking the truck. Right, ugly.
1:23:18
So, okay. And so what they did and they
1:23:22
gave you the other option that they gave.
1:23:26
Was. Okay, we will You're Gonna Keep
1:23:30
the truck you need to pay your deductible.
1:23:33
We'll give you the balance. And that's where the 1900 comes
1:23:38
from, right? so, At the time of the accident.
1:23:43
your insurance company is valued that truck of 2,900, basically
1:23:48
3000 dollars 2900 Yeah, it's just like the yes that's that's
1:23:53
what they value. The truck.
1:23:56
Okay. You don't have any further
1:23:59
questions. Yeah.
1:24:00
No you're all right. Good.
1:24:01
Any redirect know you're on a. Thank you.
1:24:03
Thank you. You may step down.
1:24:09
People have no additional Witnesses.
1:24:12
Any Witnesses for the twins know.
1:24:13
You're Any argument? You're asking for all the
1:24:23
testimony witness said he'd be asking for 3,000.
1:24:26
So that's the court order. 3,000 dollars restitution for the
1:24:29
damage. Victory, through the receipts.
1:24:32
Thank you. You're on.
1:24:35
I believe the damage should be captain of the thousand dollars,
1:24:39
which is the amount, but it's individuals out the cost of his
1:24:44
doctoral. I find a lot of things in this
1:24:49
case. Interesting, the fact that he
1:24:52
did take the payout prior to, you getting estimates to fix the
1:24:55
work, he chose to not go through.
1:24:59
Repair shops. That would have been potentially
1:25:02
fully covered by the insurance. That's the point of having
1:25:06
insurance, I think. And I think there's almost a
1:25:12
double dip at the Apple here where he's received the
1:25:15
insurance payout. And now is asking my client to
1:25:20
cover the work that if his truck was worth it, his insurance
1:25:23
would have covered. And so, I think what he is
1:25:26
realistically out based on the actions of my client is that
1:25:31
thousand dollars? Don't hold.
1:25:33
That was to dunk it from pointing 900. 32 dollars and 19
1:25:40
cents a month when he was sent to check for 1930.
1:25:43
Nice. Which didn't take a brief recess
1:25:46
upgrade station on it as well as.
1:25:55
Okay, we will keep an eye on that and return a little later
1:25:59
for the final judgment. So judgment.
1:26:03
Now, Ali is supposed to have horror man this morning and
1:26:06
here's the situation. He went live about 15 minutes
1:26:11
ago now and he went live in the middle of a hearing.
1:26:16
And hoarder man is not in the courtroom at the moment.
1:26:19
So I'm wondering if the docket got started with them live
1:26:25
streaming and we missed him. So I'm going to keep an eye and
1:26:29
see if he shows up, but it kind of feels like they might have
1:26:31
been having some technical issues or something like that
1:26:33
this morning and we missed part of the docket, but we shall see.
1:26:37
So lots going on in Courtland. Yeah.
1:26:39
What about two and a half hours to go?
1:26:42
Yeah. So lots to see.
1:26:44
Let's Let's stay in Michigan though.
1:26:49
Let's go to judge aquilina. Review is retained.
1:27:38
That is correct right? Changing a pointed to retained
1:27:41
on the cover page and then is it correct on the basic information
1:27:45
sheet Yeah, it says pointing and making that routine.
1:27:53
And then we look under evaluation plan.
1:28:05
And this would be so by public defender, but it's retained
1:28:10
counsel. That's how many.
1:28:15
Fifth Line and the first paragraph.
1:28:20
All right. Thank you on our otherwise.
1:28:22
We do not have any other changes to the body, only to the
1:28:25
guidelines. So if you have any changes to
1:28:27
the box, one change. We like to make Monday's a
1:28:31
description of the offense narrative listed as page to the
1:28:35
second pool Fairgrounds from the bottom.
1:28:38
Begins officers spoke with Witnesses at the scene and a few
1:28:42
sentences over several witnesses, stated that O'Neill
1:28:45
and O'Neill, punched the suspect and physical altercation
1:28:48
occurred. However, other Witnesses
1:28:50
advised. The suspect was the aggressor
1:28:52
prior to the physical altercation.
1:28:54
If you're under, there were witness statements in this
1:28:57
regard. However, that is not what
1:28:59
occurred in this matter. I think it's Undisputed at my
1:29:02
client, was not the initial aggressor in this.
1:29:05
Okay. So this is on page, 200
1:29:08
description of us there. Yeah, sure second paragraph from
1:29:14
the box. Oh, from the Bible.
1:29:16
Okay. Yeah.
1:29:30
I believe defense counsel's statement indicates that there
1:29:34
were actually were witnesses. That advised the suspect was the
1:29:37
aggressor prior to the physical altercation if the court would
1:29:42
like, we could indicate that other Witnesses disagreed, that
1:29:47
could be a compromised, but I don't believe that taking out
1:29:50
that sentence would be accurate reflection of what the the
1:29:57
police have received from Witnesses from the scene.
1:30:01
About I say other Witnesses and defendant disagree.
1:30:04
That's fine here. All right, changes to me.
1:30:18
And I know it's a corrections to the factual information.
1:30:21
You're asking the guidelines. Thank you, honor.
1:30:26
As a relates to the prvs. We would request that prv
1:30:29
number. Five, be scored at two points.
1:30:34
Any objection? No.
1:30:36
Yeah. Would you say the reason?
1:30:37
Yes, you're on the defendant only has one scoreboard.
1:30:42
Prior misdemeanor, you would agree.
1:30:45
Yes, right here. We find is true.
1:30:47
We would ask that prb number, seven be scored at 0 points.
1:30:52
Defendant does not have any concurrent scorable felonies.
1:30:57
All right, it is 0. That makes a total prv score at
1:31:02
57 points. It does not change the level.
1:31:05
Two. Next, as it relates to the OV
1:31:09
scores, we would ask that will be number six, be scored at 25
1:31:14
points. That is the score for the
1:31:18
defendants intent to kill and that the defendant had a an
1:31:24
intent to do great bodily harm at the time that he committed
1:31:27
the crime response. Can we be in agreement with
1:31:33
that? Thank you over.
1:31:36
Six is 25. Well, if you change the five
1:31:40
points and that score is in relation to the two that counts
1:31:49
to contemporary Polonius, criminal acts involving other
1:31:54
crimes that were committed and those counts being dismissed in
1:31:57
exchange for the week. Was five that changes the total
1:32:03
OB score to 145 points. It does not change the level
1:32:09
range does not change. You have any corrections?
1:32:13
All right, let me change Facebook.
1:32:15
Information sheet for reflect the changes. it's changed the
1:32:36
basic information, Julie reflective 50/7 and the 145.
1:32:41
And then checking The. Organizations to see if they
1:32:49
have done anything with that. Doesn't look like those are
1:33:03
mentioned anywhere that I'm finding.
1:33:04
So, Oh yes. We're good on the recommendation
1:33:24
narrative, all right? Thank you.
1:33:26
We wish any are there any pictures?
1:33:31
Yes, you're on right? I understand that there are four
1:33:33
victims that played by the court.
1:33:35
Thank you. Okay.
1:33:44
Thank you. We would have.
1:33:46
There are three now, you're honor.
1:33:51
That you would like. Yes, would you?
1:34:01
Swear from testimony, you're about to be truthful through the
1:34:07
truth and the healthy Virgin Island.
1:34:09
Maybe put your hand out the state and spell your name for
1:34:12
the record first. Name is Magdalena m, a g d, a l
1:34:16
e. N.

1:34:19
I l l a appreciate you being here.
1:34:21
Thank you. Your time.
1:34:22
I know you got your phone knows. You're gonna be reading
1:34:24
something. Yes, I am.
1:34:26
If you need a break, let me know, take your time, protect
1:34:29
your reading through five year old so that we all get it all,
1:34:33
it's important. Sometimes when people read in
1:34:36
their artistic for you really fast and it's difficult for the
1:34:40
core course so we'll get it. But I want to make sure it's
1:34:43
like okay okay thank you. You're on Earth.
1:34:48
My name is Magdalena bonnieux. I am the wife of Christopher,
1:34:51
only It's time here because it's like taking from us.
1:34:57
My husband and I shared decades together, he came into my life.
1:35:00
When my daughter was just two years old and raised her as his
1:35:03
own today, she's, she is 32 years old and is the only father
1:35:07
she ever. Knew this case is not just a
1:35:12
charge or file number, a human life was lost.
1:35:16
Someone who was deeply loved relied upon and irreplaceable.
1:35:21
Our family one. Our family will live with that
1:35:25
loss for the rest of our lives. Since my husband that nothing
1:35:29
has returned to normal, ordinary days are no longer, ordinary
1:35:33
holidays, most phones. And even quite Quiet Moments,
1:35:36
are marked by his absence grief is constant and as permanently
1:35:41
changed the course of Our Lives. The emotional impact has been
1:35:45
severe. And lastly, we live with trauma
1:35:47
pain at the knowledge that his death was preventable.
1:35:52
That reality weighs on us every single day.
1:35:54
The financial impact also has significant has been significant
1:35:58
creating instability and hardship directly tied to the
1:36:01
fence. This loss did not just affect
1:36:05
one person. It impacted an entire family
1:36:08
across Generations. My children lost their father My
1:36:12
grandchildren lost their grandfather, our foundation as a
1:36:15
family was taken in a way. No one can repair.
1:36:22
Today, this court must impose a sentence and I'm asking for a
1:36:26
farm account accountability. This offense did not occur in
1:36:29
isolation the defendant's criminal history, reflects a
1:36:33
repeater disregard for the law and for the safety of others.
1:36:36
Prior to movement with the justice system did not prevent
1:36:39
this outcome. That had an ultimately ended.
1:36:42
With the light loss of a human life.
1:36:46
Michigan, sentencing principles require consideration of
1:36:49
punishment deterrence, and the protection of the public.
1:36:53
When repeated criminal Behavior, escalated consequences, the
1:36:57
census, most reflect the seriousness of their harm and
1:37:00
the need to prevent further danger to the community.
1:37:05
Nothing. This court does today bringing
1:37:06
my husband back. but the sentence in posting was speak
1:37:10
for him in a way, he no longer Kent I'm asking this court to
1:37:14
make sure that his voice is clearly heard.
1:37:16
Thank you for allowing me to speak on. and you clearly spoke
1:37:21
for him, he's standing I also know that.
1:37:28
He is so with you just in a different form.
1:37:32
That you still hear him? And I'm so very sorry for your
1:37:37
loss but your strength is clear. Thank you.
1:37:40
And as a family, I know you're gonna go through this.
1:37:45
I also know what's going to affect your single day and
1:37:48
Trauma go away. And through what you have to
1:37:52
say, thank you. And we should still be here.
1:38:06
But we have far too many victims.
1:38:08
I have far too many families broken by gunshot.
1:38:12
Thank you. Thank you.
1:38:13
Appreciate you. but, Situation.
1:38:37
Right hand. If you swear or affirm or
1:38:40

1:38:49
record. My name is Marisa Bonilla and a
1:38:52

Hello. Thank you.
1:39:03
Your honor for everyone to speak today.
1:39:05
My name is Marisa Bonilla and I am the daughter.
1:39:08
Of course. I'm not here today, only to
1:39:12
speak in grief. I'm here today to speak in truth
1:39:14
and the truth is my father was not anyone's to take.
1:39:19
The truth about Christopher is that he was a kind man.
1:39:22
If you have crosses path in everyday life, he would have
1:39:24
treated you with respect in a world.
1:39:27
That was often turned his back on people.
1:39:29
My dad showed compassion. the truth about me is that when I
1:39:33
heard the news, I didn't cry at first, I listened for him.
1:39:37
I made a promise that I would fight for him.
1:39:41
That I would show up, no matter how hard it was.
1:39:43
I promised that I would never let him feel alone.
1:39:47
My family and I were always his strength.
1:39:49
We were the ones who stood beside him when life became
1:39:51
heavy. This crime did not just take my
1:39:54
Dad's life, it changed every part of mine.
1:39:58
There's not a day that goes by where I do not feel his absence
1:40:02
and The Quiet Moments in the Milestones.
1:40:04
He will never get to see. In the phone calls, I can no
1:40:12
longer make. I carry grief, anger, and
1:40:14
heartbreak all at once. But more than anything, I carry
1:40:18
the love. I have for my dad and the pain
1:40:19
of losing him in a way that should never have happened.
1:40:23
The person Christopher was his kindness.
1:40:25
His presence. His role in our family can never
1:40:28
be replaced. Thank you, your honor.
1:40:30
I asked that you consider the death of the Comcast, not only
1:40:34
to my dad, but to everyone who loved him and dependent on him.
1:40:37
Christopher bologna mattered his life mattered and the impact of
1:40:41
his loss will stay with us forever.
1:40:42
Thank you for allowing me to speak today.
1:40:45
We run on your father and I promise you, I can't promise
1:40:49
life. I promise you walk with you
1:40:52
every day and he is part of all of those things you want him to
1:40:56
be harder. So just know that he's with you,
1:40:58
you iron him, you are his voice and at some point you'll be
1:41:05
reunited, but I agree with you. You should not have been taken.

I heard what you have to say and I appreciate your strengths,
1:41:13

1:41:16

1:41:51
Kristen bonnieux. K r i s t i n b o n.
1:41:56
I l l a thank you. What would you like me to know?
1:41:59
Yeah, my name is Kristen and I am here to speak on behalf of my
1:42:04
family and my self about the lost, my father, who was shot
1:42:08
and killed in February of last year.
1:42:11
My dad was not just another person who's like was taken.
1:42:15
He was our everything. He was a dad, a friend, a
1:42:19
brother, a cousin, and uncle a son, a husband and most
1:42:24
importantly, a grandfather That's how the grandfather was
1:42:28
something. He was truly the best at about a
1:42:32
side of him that not everyone got to see to his grandchildren.
1:42:36
He was gentle, playful patient and full of unconditional love,
1:42:41
he adored them and their adored him right back.
1:42:45
So someone who didn't know him. My daughter might have looked
1:42:48
intimidating at first glance, but he was a gentle, teddy bear.
1:42:51
He had the biggest heart. He was the kind of man, who
1:42:55
would be there for anyone even a stranger There was a saying that
1:43:00
he'll give all, he'll give you the shirt off his back and that
1:43:03
was he who my dad was? He was giving selfless and
1:43:07
always willing to help no matter the cost to do so.
1:43:11
My father was funny. Honest and a hard worker.
1:43:15
He took pride in providing for his family and protecting the
1:43:18
people he loved. But more than anything else, he
1:43:22
was loyal loyal to his family to his friends and loves the
1:43:27
people. He cared about, he loved his
1:43:29
kids he and unconditionally he never questioned whether we were
1:43:33
look, we never questioned whether we were low We both at
1:43:37
every single day through his actions.
1:43:39
Census that the impact on our family has been devastating.
1:43:42
He was our provider and our protector.
1:43:45
He was the girl that held our family together.
1:43:47
Before this happened. We will Incredibly Close So
1:43:51
tight that it felt like nothing and no one could ever tear us
1:43:54
apart. But losing him did.
1:44:00
Without my dad, everything has fallen apart and we are left
1:44:04
trying to survive in a world that feels completely different
1:44:06
without him in it. The pain of his actually is
1:44:09
constant. Holidays birthdays and everyday
1:44:13
moments are not filled with the boy, that could never be
1:44:15
replaced. His grandchildren were growing
1:44:17
up, missing the grandfather, who love them, so fiercely His
1:44:23
children are like navigating life, without the man who was
1:44:26
always there to guide protect and support.
1:44:28
The sloth is permanent. Our family were carry this free
1:44:33
for the rest of our lives and love.
1:44:34
He gave us will stay with us forever.
1:44:36
Thank you for allowing me to speak for my father.
1:44:39
Thank you. Well, you're honored him but let
1:44:42
me just tell you. But he just still is your
1:44:47
protector. Is your guardian angel?
1:44:50
as I said earlier, he's walking with all of you and I do know I
1:44:57
know you say you're all broken, things are different, but
1:45:00
they're going to emerge stronger and more together.
1:45:06
And you will keep him alive. For the grandchildren by sharing
1:45:12
all those wonderful times and memories and history because
1:45:17
that's important to them. So, important to you and every
1:45:20
time you share a story know he's with you.
1:45:23
And at some point alone, now, you may cry while you're telling
1:45:29
the story. You'll find joy and peace, and
1:45:32
his memory and sharing all that greatness that he brought into
1:45:37
your life and into our community.
1:45:39
And I am so, very sorry for the last two, all have suffered in
1:45:43
our community is good. People, we need to be here and
1:45:46
now we take him down by gunfire. Exactly.
1:45:49
So he left you all the big hearts and love and he is still
1:45:53
sharing that with you. And thank you so much for being
1:45:55
here. Thank you so much.
1:46:01
Is there restitution? That is being sought.
1:46:07
Your honor, the thankfully, the family did make an application
1:46:11
to The Chronic victims compensation fund, and they were
1:46:14
given 8000 dollars, we'll be requesting restitution to the
1:46:17
credit victims compensation Fund in the amount of 8,000 dollars,
1:46:21
and that is for funeral. And a lady expenses.
1:46:24
Is that right? Yes, that's correct.
1:46:25
All right now. Yes.
1:46:34
The president has a long history, it's a long violent
1:46:37
history as you're on, our has seen in the PSI.
1:46:42
What I find very telling about the situation.
1:46:47
Is. On page.
1:46:55
Eight. Under finest description of
1:46:58
events. Why to provide a statement?
1:47:06
Those are the words of a person who fancy himself as a victim of
1:47:10
his circumstances. Here, the defendant filed a
1:47:15
sentencing memorandum in this case that did nothing, but Sully
1:47:19
the character of the victim in this matter.
1:47:21
But, let's talk about the defendant, the defendant took
1:47:24
made a choice on February, 16th 2025.
1:47:32
When he left his house with a gun, he was not supposed to have
1:47:36
because he was a felon. But that gun in his waistband
1:47:40
walked into a strip club and decided to drink the night away.
1:47:48
what good is going to happen or come up, drinking the night
1:47:51
away, when a felon has a gun tucked away in his waistband, As
1:47:56
everyone knows. Emotions, get high.
1:48:01
You may see someone that you may have a beef with and that's
1:48:05
exactly what happened. And what he did was bring a gun
1:48:09
to a fist fight. And so walking away instead of
1:48:14
learning what he learned in prison when he did.
1:48:16
His prison term for witness intimidation on a case, he
1:48:20
wasn't even involved in for a murder where he beat up a
1:48:22
witnessed from a first degree. Murder case, that He had nothing
1:48:28
to do with. He pulled the gun out.
1:48:35
In a fist fight. And he shot.
1:48:38
Christopher Bonilla in the stomach.
1:48:44
And instead of standing there and providing any type of
1:48:48
Assistance or calling the police or doing anything that he could.
1:48:53
Like an actual victim would have done.
1:48:58
He picked up his gun that shot. What seems to be rifle rounds
1:49:03
and he walked calmly out of the building stumping.
1:49:07
A pistol back into his waistband.
1:49:09
Got into a car and left the scene.
1:49:11
And we're by chance. Is that gun?
1:49:13
Where has that gone ever gone? It's never been fast.
1:49:18
He never called the police. He never did anything to help
1:49:21
the situation. That is not how we victim Acts.
1:49:24
Yet this person wants to fancy himself as a victim.
1:49:29
And Scully the reputation of Christopher Bonilla in a
1:49:33
sentencing memorandum. Doesn't want to make a statement
1:49:37
on his own behalf. Very telling your honor.
1:49:42
We have a family that has lost. Their patriarch.
1:49:51
Their Cornerstone of their family.
1:49:55
And all because of what? Because of a decision.
1:50:01
That Adrienne Wilkinson. Dirty is what his name is.
1:50:03
That's how everybody knows. I'm dirty.
1:50:05
Made a decision that day you made a decision to put a pistol
1:50:09
in his waistband when he wasn't allowed to Things any grown
1:50:17
adults, should know better than to do than to walk into a strip
1:50:21
club with a pistol in your waistband.
1:50:25
So I would ask that you're on her take those.
1:50:28
Statements for my the victims family into account when you're
1:50:31
forming your sentence, in this case. because, Though, this is a
1:50:37
cleat to a manslaughter and a felony firearm.
1:50:41
I think those are huge. Issues that we have here.
1:50:44
And I think the defendant has to understand that that's not how
1:50:50
Normal people operate in our community.
1:50:55
And I would ask that you're on our follow, the guidelines.
1:50:58
And sentences that have been to 144 months to one.
1:51:03
Sorry, 360 months, on count, seven and consecutive to the 24
1:51:10
months in count six. Council was the Original
1:51:29
sentencing agreement was there. That's correct.
1:51:41
Hills Premiere know some You know, there's no denying
1:52:00
that we're faced with a difficult decision in here, this
1:52:03
matter and a difficult set of circumstances.
1:52:05
We have a family that lost a loved one that they'll never be
1:52:09
able to get back. And my client is going to be
1:52:11
spending a significant amount of time in prison as a result of
1:52:15
his actions. You know, the probation
1:52:17
department and the prosecution has made a recommendation for
1:52:20
144 months. In this matter, for the
1:52:23
manslaughter charge. We respectfully disagree with
1:52:26
that recommendation as we do feel that, that ignores the
1:52:30
facts of the case and the history and characteristics of
1:52:33
my client as well, your honor. Now I did file, a sentencing
1:52:37
memorandum in details, a lot of what occurred in this matter.
1:52:40
And I think that it's Undisputed as to what happened during this
1:52:44
incident insurance My client is at a bar or a nightclub.
1:52:48
And while there he sucker punched, and then he is attacked
1:52:52
by multiple people from multiple angles.
1:52:55
There was no one coming to his defense security at the club was
1:52:58
not coming to break this fight up and yes, my client is a
1:53:02
villain and he just wrong and he had a firearm.
1:53:05
It was a legal for him to do that and in the midst of this
1:53:08
attack, He shot and killed. Christopher Bonilla, you are,
1:53:12
it's on video. We can't run from those facts.
1:53:15
We can't hide from it. That is, what happened on this
1:53:18
night. But I think it's important
1:53:20
because when my client left from home, he never in his mind and
1:53:24
vision, what was going to be happening this night, he never
1:53:27
thought that he'd be using his firearm.
1:53:30
He never thought that he would be attacked and sucker punched
1:53:32
in the club and he didn't know that there was someone who was
1:53:36
holding a vendetta against him. God for the last several years,
1:53:40
my client has been living his life.
1:53:42
The right ways, he removed himself from negative influences
1:53:45
and the street lifestyle Mr. Wilkinson did, he was
1:53:49
successfully did what we want all prior to do.
1:53:52
He reforms and thank you couldn't have a weapon.
1:54:00
Let's start from there, I understand what you're doing and
1:54:03
it is your job and you're doing it very well but let's be very
1:54:08
clear. His Reformation included
1:54:11
violating the law like carrying a weapon handlebar and for that
1:54:17
Runner he is wrong, he had a firearm, he wants to have one
1:54:21
but when we focus on the other aspects of his life, this is
1:54:24
someone who had no education. Took it upon himself to go out
1:54:28
and earn a general education degree.
1:54:30
This is someone who had no skills or training.
1:54:32
So get a point himself to earn a commercial driver's license.
1:54:36
He was working, he was doing Everything the right way.
1:54:39
And in fact, my client had confided in me that he hadn't
1:54:43
been out to a nightclub since he was released from prison.
1:54:46
This was the first night that he had went out.
1:54:49
All that he did was focused on his family and his work.
1:54:53
He worked two jobs around the clock driving a truck up and
1:54:57
down the state of Michigan and throughout the various parts of
1:54:59
the country. He worked on the weekends here
1:55:02
at another job in the Lansing Community, he was doing
1:55:05
everything that he could and his family was proud of him because
1:55:09
he did a complete 180 with his life here.
1:55:11
And I feel for that he has should be getting some credit.
1:55:16
Yes, we have a serious case in this matter and individual lost
1:55:20
their life. But I don't think that we should
1:55:22
completely ignore everything that my client did to reform.
1:55:29
Oh sorry that's okay. I don't think we should ignore
1:55:32
everything that my client did to reform and rehabilitate himself.
1:55:36
He made a mistake and I don't think that he's worth us, just
1:55:41
giving up on your honor. Now, the prosecution had made
1:55:44
some arguments about my client clienting to provide a statement
1:55:48
to the probation department. My client has an absolute right
1:55:51
to remain silent and he ate declined to make this statement
1:55:54
to the probation department on the advice of counsel.
1:55:57
He should not be penalized for that.
1:55:59
He came into court and he made a factual basis about what
1:56:03
occurred that night. I think in light of all the
1:56:06
circumstances and everything that did occur on this night, my
1:56:10
client's history and characteristics as well as the
1:56:13
history and characteristics of the victim in this matters would
1:56:17
be asking the court for a sentence of 60 months with a
1:56:20
manslaughter. So let me just remind you, you
1:56:24
plan to count one homicide manslaughter, wish the official
1:56:30
third it is personal back to 30 years and count to weapons.
1:56:35
Valley Firearms is two years prestige.
1:56:40
These sentence that I will give you an account one and Council
1:56:47
respect, what you had to say and you have a job to do.
1:56:51
However, he pled guilty, it wasn't no contact, no, not the
1:56:57
right to remain silent. But once she has played,
1:57:02
Unclear, how being accountable? Is something that he chooses to
1:57:13
do surgery, wish to make a statement or not.
1:57:17
Yes, what would you like us to know?
1:57:22
How long to begin by expressing how truly star.
1:57:25
I am for. What happened?
1:57:26
Last February. I know they're looking at my
1:57:29
criminal history of making assumption that who I am.
1:57:35
And yeah, I'm just playing to myself back up.
1:57:42
To 10 years ago, I changed everything about who I am, who I
1:57:47
was. It was going to therapy 7 Minute
1:57:55
for once everything in my life was going great. then in
1:58:00
February of last year, I went out with the intentions of just
1:58:03
online but I never envisioned that I would be attacked.
1:58:09
I'm so far removed from their life that the thought of being
1:58:12
sucker. Punched And then being jumped
1:58:15
just wasn't even in the realm of reality for me.
1:58:18
I regret that like was lost and for that, I am sorry.
1:58:25
I'm not proud of this. This is something I have to live
1:58:29
with. Sometimes I've been living with.
1:58:32
one day going to have to answer the God for regardless of how
1:58:39
this instant unfolded, who was drunk and who was the aggressor,
1:58:43
I am sorry, bro, I played in I prayed that the family from one
1:58:50
day. Find it in their hearts to
1:58:52
forgive me. And I asked at the court, takes
1:58:55
everything and just Casey's consideration.
1:58:57
I'm actually No mercy to give you because I see is an
1:59:08
escalation. When I see is someone who has
1:59:11
said, I've done all of these great things.
1:59:13
And so I want you to give me credit For violating the law,
1:59:19
carrying a gun into a bar. And firing twice into a human.
1:59:27
Who does? Could have fired into the
1:59:31
ceiling. That would have scared
1:59:34
everybody. That would have been a cry for
1:59:36
help if that's what you needed. We're taking a gun to a
1:59:41
fistfight. It doesn't work, you were a
1:59:46
felon, you can have a weapon, you chose to drink, you had
1:59:50
control of your life, how much you drink and whether or not you
1:59:54
chose and unlock, hold on with you.
1:59:57
So all of these great things that you did and then
2:00:00
everybody's so proud of gets a race like carrying a weapon
2:00:04
concealed unlocked. We on your person and a bar
2:00:09
where you drink so you're a decision.
2:00:11
Making is clouded by the alcohol.
2:00:15
But it was already clouded having no alcohol.
2:00:18
When you put that on lawful weapon into your waistband, not
2:00:24
the proper license or authority, and then you use it on a human
2:00:28
being, a valuable human being. Now, maybe you didn't give a
2:00:31
crap about him, but the community does and his family
2:00:34
certainly don't, they will be forever without him.
2:00:40
He will not. Share birthdays, holidays
2:00:43
graduations. There are no more hugs There are
2:00:49
no more celebrations with him. His family has to keep him
2:00:54
alive. by the memories he left behind by the footprint, you
2:00:59
left behind, Your sorry, doesn't cut it for me.
2:01:07
You do not just have one or two crimes.
2:01:12
You have what? Seven felonies.
2:01:16
And one another seven six or seven.
2:01:20
Let's see. Six colonies prior.
2:01:22
Now, it's seven and five prior Mr. Meer, what haven't you
2:01:26
learned? Those other?
2:01:29
13 times you were before a judge.
2:01:35
Anybody speaks out anymore. The officer will take you into
2:01:39
custody. It is contempt. 93 days.
2:01:44
Jail and or 7500 is contempt. I don't care about the money but
2:01:51
she'll have 90 three days and our hotel in Mason.
2:01:53
So I expect a quiet courtroom Here.
2:02:09
I don't know where your counseling went wrong.
2:02:11
I don't know where all these Good Deeds went wrong, but they
2:02:14
didn't go far enough. You need some significant time
2:02:17
Behind Bars. So that when you are out the
2:02:20
rest of us can be assured that maybe you learned your lesson
2:02:23
and you can keep us all safe. There's a man who will not be
2:02:29
able. To have conversations with his
2:02:33
family, you'll be behind bars, but you can still see your
2:02:36
family and they can send you pictures and they can come visit
2:02:39
you. unlike the man who was loved that you took down, As to
2:02:50
count one, how much side manslaughter you are setting to
2:02:55
100 months? Zero credit days.
2:03:05
You will pay private assessment, no matter, 130 dollars, and a
2:03:10
68.00 state cost. Best account two weapons, felony
2:03:15
Firearms. You will serve 24 months with
2:03:17
credit for 402 days. That you've already served that
2:03:22
time will be served consecutive with and preceding how one which
2:03:27
technically is count. Six.
2:03:33
And count seven. I think we need to change that
2:03:35
on the cover page. You will pay a 6 8. 0, 0.
2:04:01
Restitution will be paid first and the private is just
2:04:05
assessment and state hospital. He held in advance until he's
2:04:09
released, I want the restitution to pay first while you are
2:04:17
incarcerated. You will participate in
2:04:20
behavioral Trace School. Here.
2:04:28
Anything else you would like him to participate in know?
2:04:32
Yeah, all right, I'm sure the Department of Corrections will
2:04:35
have other programming for you, sir.
2:04:38
I believe that this punishment given the circumstances the
2:04:42
escalation, and the thoughtlessness that went into
2:04:46
bringing a gun in Italy legal gun into a bar being drunk and
2:04:52
firing it. Against a punch or two or three.
2:04:59
I believe this punishment is. Sufficient and proportional
2:05:05
speaks to the necessary continued Rehabilitation of
2:05:10
Defending publicly. It deters, others and protects
2:05:13
Society. There are far too many illegal
2:05:18
weapons and people who decide they want to be all-powerful,
2:05:21
and excuse their actions Away by carrying a gun.
2:05:26
You have 42 days to appeal and request Council.
2:05:32
Please give him his appellate rights, the form should be right
2:05:35
in front of you served. Anything else that we have?
2:05:39
No, thank you. No, thank you.
2:05:42
So that's the form you use. If you would like to appeal,
2:05:53
additionally, I should say let me know, contact with the family
2:05:57
is a victim. I understand that sir.
2:06:14
Your call rights. Thank you.
2:06:34
All righty friends. We're gonna go over to judge
2:06:36
McNally. But an update there, my
2:06:39
suspicion that they might have had Tech issues this morning I
2:06:41
think is correct. Thank you to Austin, who in our
2:06:45
private chat informed us. That He looked it up and this
2:06:51
morning hoarder, man had a unfortunate run in which judge
2:06:55
McNally that ended with him being ordered to report to jail
2:06:59
on May 5th. We don't know yet, anyways, how
2:07:04
long he was sentenced to jail? The fact that it was pushed out
2:07:07
to May 5th implies to me, that it was probably at least 30 days
2:07:10
but I can't state that as a fact and we'll try to get more
2:07:15
information, but he's got a review on.
2:07:19
May 6th which he'll be in custody during And then a
2:07:24
prosecutor review on 71. Those are the things we know.
2:07:27
So the morning went bad for her man from the looks of things but
2:07:32
we'll keep you updated with that.
2:07:33
Having been said, let's let's go to judgment now and we'll see
2:07:36
what else she's got going on. You got to talk to me if you
2:07:41
don't have the money. That's what I know.
2:07:45
He can you pay 40 per week? How much?
2:07:55
Okay, I do. like, The 80 per month.
2:08:02
How about 20 per week? Can you do that?
2:08:04
Okay. Yeah.
2:08:08

2:20:27
You maybe. Cheer.
2:20:34
All right, we'll go back on the record in the case of the people
2:20:37
versus Walker. What are you in your army?
2:20:40
Good morning. Robert with an on behalf of Mr.
2:20:43
Walker, who's coaching Mr. Walker.
2:20:45
Please state your name for the record.
2:20:47
George Walker. All right.
2:20:49
I'll make a determination on the restitution you're setting.
2:20:52
Is there anything that you wish to say before I do it?
2:20:55
So let's face You're on just that.
2:20:58
Mr. Walker is a young man who made a mistake here.
2:21:02
He's here, taking accountability for his actions and was just to
2:21:06
move forward. This image most positive way to
2:21:09
can he's, anyone says, yeah, I am just like my My public
2:21:26
defender said I am a good young man and if I felt liable for
2:21:31
these charts, I would have paid them all without question.
2:21:38
It's talking about. Yeah, other than that.
2:21:43
I'm just grateful to have you as my thank you.
2:21:57
All right, in this case C, Just in the court order finds a
2:22:03
costume. My 350 dollars.
2:22:05
I will also spend 90 days in jail with reference to the
2:22:08
restitution. Any sometimes you get
2:22:12
complicated with. Automobile crashes.
2:22:18
Certainly invitation when somebody doesn't have insurance.
2:22:22
As to what they get collect, or if they had plpd, what they can
2:22:26
collect. in this case, it even gets more complicated in a sense
2:22:31
because in and going to give a couple scenarios in terms of
2:22:36
assessing the damage. First of all.
2:22:40
Individual, the entitled to the restitution for their loss.
2:22:45
They are to be made whole. That doesn't mean that.
2:22:52
They can get a new vehicle. and, so, those would be sort of the
2:23:00
extremes Terms of looking at? in this case, What the?
2:23:08
Victim chose to do. Is.
2:23:14
Causes maybe for them, was certain problem with the
2:23:18
restitution. he only value I know for this vehicle is What
2:23:25
Progressive value to vehicle? That is 290032.19 is what they
2:23:33
value. That vehicle.
2:23:35
Now, it may have had a greater value.
2:23:38
And I'll explain that. But that's the only value that's
2:23:41
before that I have. He could have.
2:23:49
Chosen and the insurance company gave him an option.
2:23:53
He could have taken. The 2932, 19.
2:24:00
The insurance company would have taken as scrap, in essence, the
2:24:05
truck. and then, Theoretically, everybody's done.
2:24:12
In theory. Had he done that and then
2:24:16
showing that the vehicle was actually worth more, but the
2:24:19
insurance company wasn't gonna pay him more.
2:24:22
He might have been entitled to restitution for what that actual
2:24:25
value was. But I don't have that before me.
2:24:29
What he elected to do instead. was, and he was very honest and
2:24:35
I appreciated his testimony waiting to do instead was I
2:24:41
won't take the payout. I will keep my vehicle. pay my
2:24:51
deductible and get the back balance or get the excess
2:24:58
amount. So if you follow the math here
2:25:01
in the calculation here what really ends up happening is he's
2:25:05
paying for that truck. Is really what's happening.
2:25:10
And so he's holding that regard. In a lot of ways because if he
2:25:17
had done it the other way, what would have happened is he would
2:25:21
have taken to 2900? I'll just go three three times.
2:25:25
He would take it to 3000. They would have taken a truck.
2:25:27
He was said the truck is worth more and then he would come
2:25:29
after him or what that amount was how he would have been made
2:25:34
whole but he's been made whole because he had the vehicle.
2:25:39
But that doesn't mean he didn't get to.
2:25:44
Take that vehicle. Back to what?
2:25:48
He says the condition was Because in in theory that's not
2:25:53
part of his loss. I don't.
2:25:58
And so he made a decision now. Why would somebody make that
2:26:05
decision? I understand why he made the
2:26:07
decision. And again, why I appreciate his
2:26:09
testimony, he made that decision because had he taken the 3000.
2:26:15
He would have gotten the 3,000, they would have taken the truck
2:26:18
and he would have actually never seen 3000.
2:26:21
Why would he never seen the 3,000?
2:26:23
Because there's a lien holder. They they would have paid it
2:26:27
over to the lien holder and he'd still have to pay on this truck
2:26:30
that he no longer has. I get why he made the decision
2:26:34
that he made, but that doesn't, that doesn't mean that he has a
2:26:38
loss. That this defendant is
2:26:41
responsible for He made his financial decision.
2:26:46
And he has his truck. Which he?
2:26:51
Says, has that value of going up to 500,000 miles?
2:26:56
And most people know, I'm a four guys.
2:26:58
That's a Chevy? I don't know.
2:26:59
But anyway, I say that for Jesus but I I'm just saying, There is
2:27:05
no laws. The thousand dollar he paid for
2:27:10
the truck is what he did. Bottom line.
2:27:14
And then he got the extra money, he can put that third repairs,
2:27:18
you can put that door to anything you wanted.
2:27:21
So for those reasons and based upon what's before, the court, I
2:27:26
am not going to order restitution of it.
2:27:30
When can you pay the fines and cost of 300 dollars?
2:27:37
Your honor. Can we have a couple of weeks,
2:27:38
please? Pay it by 15.
2:27:43
That's Thank you, thank you very much, Ron.
2:27:49
Thank you. Okay.
2:27:58

2:53:40
I was a heroin addict and I work with needle exchange to help

3:00:21
Like stop on my face, just one moment.
3:00:25
Had you not pulled your vehicle over and gotten out of your
3:00:28
vehicle? none of this would have even
3:00:31
occurred for him, so All right. No, it's not the same for him.
3:00:35
He had pulled over to go to a yard sale or wherever he was
3:00:39
going. Sir.
3:00:43
Okay, I'm just what did you think would happen when you put
3:00:47
your hands on someone to push them?
3:00:53
Hello? I don't know.
3:00:55
Does it work in this court? What did you think would happen?

3:01:02
I mean intend on hurting them. I didn't intend on it and
3:01:05
falling. I didn't know that man.
3:01:06
You know I hear that, that's why I'm asking.
3:01:08
What did you think would happen when you pushed him he was gonna
3:01:12
get out my face. That's it.
3:01:14
Okay. You make it in Newcastle.
3:01:16
I was just indicating he realized this was the wrong
3:01:18
thing and of course, the wrong thing was to even stop there.
3:01:21
I agree with that. He understands that.
3:01:23
Now at the time he clearly didn't apply to resolve what he
3:01:28
believed. The man arrest people and you
3:01:32
can control, you know, okay. And I mean, that's all I was
3:01:39
here. Your daughter with you.
3:01:40
Yes, I was in the back seat back.
3:01:42
I had another shirt. I had my back.
3:01:44
Hold on hold on. So, I just heard you say to your
3:01:48
attorney that your daughter. Hit her head off the window.
3:01:50
Yes. He was in a car seat.
3:01:54
If she was in her car seat, how'd she hit her head on the
3:01:56
window? That window when he ran off the
3:02:02
road? Man, I hit on sir.
3:02:03
I hate the current, what I What type of car seat was your
3:02:08
daughter? In a full car seat and a full
3:02:11
car seat, right? And the full car seat has the
3:02:13
pieces of the of the head grass that go out and so you, your
3:02:18
daughter wouldn't be able to hit her head on the window.
3:02:23
On the window, it's a booster seat.
3:02:26
Now we'll see. Now that's something different.
3:02:27
A booster seats, different from a car seat.
3:02:30
A full car seat. You just thought it was a full
3:02:32
car seat. The full upright booster seats,
3:02:35
she's fine. She's trying to find them.
3:02:37
She's almost five at the end of this month.
3:02:39
So she was four. Yes, when this happened, yes.
3:02:44
Okay, so Your daughter was with you, yes.
3:02:53
You the the victim pulls off down a certain Street.
3:02:58
He pulled over. Because I have an in front of
3:03:01
the yard sale, man. This is what was exactly what
3:03:04
happened. Well, when I read the report,
3:03:07
it's so it showed that he turned.
3:03:10
I, I turned off the street. Now I love all mistakes in
3:03:14
Hudson. That's how this I don't stop,
3:03:21
please stop talking. Here, Mr. Cunningham was going
3:03:50
to a yard sale on Goddard Road. He was the Mr. Cunningham was
3:04:05
going to make a left hand turn off of Goddard on the Lindbergh.
3:04:10
But the red passenger car drove by quickly.
3:04:12
That's your car correct, sir. Yes.
3:04:14
Okay. So we pulled off Mr. Cunningham
3:04:19
pulled off of Goddard Road onto Lindbergh Street, and parked at
3:04:23
the corner of the Lindbergh and Goddard.
3:04:25
So we pulled So when I said you turned, he pulled over to the to
3:04:29
the yard sale. Because that's where the yard
3:04:33
sale was. he was standing outside of his vehicle, he heard
3:04:39
a male yelling, Then he saw what?
3:04:43
Well, whether it was you or not. Then he saw the red passenger
3:04:48
vehicle stopped, a couple houses West.
3:04:51
From where he was and got and you were on Goddard Road.
3:04:56
Right. Yes.
3:04:58
Okay. But I had just made a left hand.
3:05:01
Turn office six and that's where the yard sale.
3:05:03
Is concerns on a kid sir. Okay, one extreme when I'm my
3:05:08
point is Is that Mr. Cunningham pulled off to go to the yard
3:05:14
sale? You were on Goddard.
3:05:18
You pulled over. After Mr. Cunningham turned you
3:05:24
pulled over. Because you were angry and
3:05:29
upset. But he was the one cousin.
3:05:33
Sir. I'm talking about you.
3:05:36
That you were angry upset. You left your daughter in the
3:05:40
car with my brother. He was there sir, ma'am.
3:05:45
I'm being you, then you walked to the person that you were
3:05:48
angry with. No he wrote about Coach Lee,
3:05:51
that's the thing that's in my report he approached me, he came
3:05:54
to me, custody at me when he got his mind nose, the nose with me
3:05:57
ma'am. I just pushed him back out of my
3:05:59
sir, that's all that you're missing.
3:06:01
The entirety of my point, I'm great but he wasn't going to the
3:06:05
show, the entirety of that. And the entirety of my point is
3:06:08
that you never should have pulled over.
3:06:10
Okay, my body, I had visited, I'm wrong.
3:06:12
Okay, I pushed him, I didn't need it to her.
3:06:14
I didn't have no intention of him.
3:06:16
I don't know him. I it was a simple mistake.
3:06:18
Okay, that's possible mistake pulling over.
3:06:22
To get out to check out my daughter.
3:06:24
It and that's all I was checking to see cuz she bought her and
3:06:26
this is the gods. I was truth.
3:06:28
I when I got on to check out my doctor, you guys right in the
3:06:30
area then you should just turned back around and went home.
3:06:32
Exactly what I did I took her right back to her mother man.
3:06:38
I turned right back but that's what I put him on report.
3:06:40
That house. Okay.
3:06:42
Cancel you make continue. So, what I'm hearing is, I'm
3:06:52
hearing a whole lot of excuses. Okay.
3:06:54
Justify your patience. There was no contact with the
3:06:56
vehicles. I think he could have kept going
3:06:58
straight to it and I could have kept going straight.
3:06:59
That's it. People must take and he
3:07:01
approached me and I did the most of us about pushing it.
3:07:04
I think. All right.
3:07:05
What about the lady? Whose house you threatened to
3:07:07
burn down and killed on it. I don't know how to burn down.
3:07:09

natural rescue recommendation. I'm going to indicate is that
3:08:57

3:17:45
of smugly said he's never been convicted of any crime and you
3:17:49
caught out of those words. I cannot say to him.
3:17:53
You are not convicted. and when he explains that people, he can
3:17:59
explain that he didn't need each other and then her no reason.
3:18:03
And a street. Knock me out Butler.
3:18:06

A copy was given to probation. Very good.
3:19:11
Thank you so much. Um Mr. Goldpaw and you may have
3:19:16
to see sir that way. They got this girl and a bit
3:19:20
confused. When did your client moved to
3:19:22
lined up? Right now, I'm asking about your
3:19:36
fiancee's address and why not, I don't understand.
3:19:38
You said a few moments ago. Okay, stop interrupting me.
3:19:46
Just you said a few moments ago, sir that you are coming from 6th
3:19:52
and Goddard because that's where you live, that's right.
3:19:56
But I'm pretty certain you said that's where you live.
3:19:59
That's right. Sir.
3:20:02
Your attorney. Has told you a number of times,
3:20:05
don't talk when I'm talking. Because see the recording right
3:20:09
there. That it can record one person at
3:20:12
a time. Stop talking.
3:20:14
When I'm talking. You stated, that's where you
3:20:19
lived. You said I live at Sixth and
3:20:23
Goddard. That is what you said, did you
3:20:26
not? Yes.
3:20:28
Okay. But you don't live there, no.
3:20:33
All right. So, tell me about your three
3:20:37
warrants that you have sir and what you're doing to resolve
3:20:40
those. well, I have A traffic walking Detroit, but I'm on GPS
3:20:45
tether right now. So that's just a matter of
3:20:47
payment issues and right now it's 325 and payment for no
3:20:51
registration to look at market and that's all it is.
3:20:55
Well, why haven't you paid it, sir?
3:20:58
Are being born right now and I'm fixed income right now.
3:21:01
I'll make it 312.32 a care for hours a week.
3:21:03
Right now, 675 every two weeks, it's only works starts back up,
3:21:08
Sir. Don't you think that you would
3:21:10
make more money? Speaking employment during the
3:21:15
off-season then you do on unemployment but I'm going back
3:21:18
to work. I'm going back to work.
3:21:21
That's great. But then for five months, you're
3:21:23
not working. You're receiving minimum income.
3:21:27
Minimal income. So my questions are and set up
3:21:30
waiting for unemployment to come and just collecting
3:21:32
unemployment. It would seem that it would make
3:21:35
a bit more sense for you to go get employment for even the five
3:21:40
months that you're not. Working as a collecting on the
3:21:44
employment. Well, that's a stipulation that
3:21:46
with the employment you got it. You gotta go on a vacation every
3:21:50
week. So I'm just waiting for a call
3:21:52
and That's what it is. I gotta, I gotta job search
3:21:56
twice while you're on a blend. So I understand that.
3:21:58
So you didn't get one at all. You didn't have anybody call you
3:22:01
for an interview or otherwise. Okay.
3:22:04
How long did I don't play for weeks now.
3:22:06
Okay, So, so these um, are these ones are from June of 2025.
3:22:14
And you've only been at an appointment for four weeks.
3:22:16
So, why did you take care of those back in June, I went to
3:22:20
jail for one of the matters, man, and then I got out and I
3:22:23
hope I paid wanted to give up with that for the driving on
3:22:26
with no proof of insurance. and then the other people is no
3:22:30
registration, which that's what I hold right now because a good
3:22:32
part which is 340 Which is for disturbing the piece.
3:22:36
All that did not dismiss know it didn't sir the discovered
3:22:41
puppies sir I'm looking at it right here.
3:22:44
You have a conviction from September 26th of 2025 In
3:22:51
Lincoln Park. And in fact, you have a warrant
3:22:57
that was issued February 3rd of 2026.
3:23:00
Because you did not appear for a payment me, right?
3:23:04
I don't know what it was for. It says failure to appear.
3:23:08
So let me just go through this and just a moment here in 2025
3:23:14
sir, January of 2025, you have a conviction out of this court for
3:23:19
disorderly conduct. It.
3:23:23
All right. That was the charge and you put
3:23:25
to disorderly conduct and what was your sentence out of this
3:23:29
court, sir? Did you have fines and costs or
3:23:33
would you have probation? Okay.
3:23:37
Then sir you have in September. On the city of Ecorse. you have
3:23:47
a another, another disorderly conduct That was disturbing the
3:23:53
peace fast. This orderly kind of disturbing
3:23:55
the piece, they're used one and they're used to actually
3:23:57
disorderly. Hyphen disturbing.
3:23:59
The piece is what link is what it's showing in the 25th
3:24:02
district court. He looking at these?
3:24:06
Yes, I don't see that, but yes, it is.
3:24:09
It's on the first page. 100 criminal history.
3:24:14
Birthday. First page on the first page of
3:24:17
the PSI under criminal history. I see else will be An 03?
3:24:25
Yes. Go to the last one 2025.
3:24:27
That's Linkin Park disorderly. I was nice and six, right.
3:24:31
Right, right, right, right that I see, but I also I do not see.
3:24:35
Amended one, there's an amended one.
3:24:37
That was done, that showed the line that one.
3:24:40
You know, okay, that was January 23rd.
3:24:42
So what I see serves this This paints a picture for me.
3:24:45
A picture of somebody that is continuing to be. unable to
3:24:52
control his emotions. You have a disorderly conducted
3:24:59
Wyandotte. Then you get one in the city of
3:25:02
Ecorse which is within the 25th, district court Lincoln Park.
3:25:05
That's right. Showing Lincoln Park. then that
3:25:09
say around the same time as you've got the one in Lincoln
3:25:13
Park, in fact, in right before that is when um, Mr. Man, I was
3:25:22
victimized by you sir. So, what I see, sir is an
3:25:28
individual with escalating emotions.
3:25:32
That doesn't know how to control the emotions.
3:25:35
That's what I see. That zero reason to pull over.
3:25:41
Zero. No reason to pull over
3:25:44
whatsoever. And that not only did you pull
3:25:49
over, you get out of your car. And then you start walking up.
3:25:55
To Mr. Cunningham or to the area, wherever you intended to
3:26:00
go? With such Force sir.
3:26:11
That. He felt backwards.
3:26:15
Fractured his wrist did something to his elbow and was
3:26:18
not done conscious. With one. time that you talked
3:26:24
to him, With such Force. That was what happened?
3:26:31
As a result of your actions. You could be mad that he pulled
3:26:38
out in front of you. He turned in front of you, you
3:26:41
whatever it is. So You're right to be angry
3:26:45
about that frustrated, whatever it is.
3:26:46
You don't have the right to act upon that anger in the manner in
3:26:50
which you acted. Not.
3:27:08
but once I asked the recommendation, Communicator.
3:27:15
The amount. Of restitution requested.
3:27:19
Still doesn't show any out-of-pocket expenses to Mr,
3:27:24
Cunningham. As such.
3:27:27
Until that is shown. Restitution and who gets the
3:27:31
restitution? Is Michael.
3:27:33
My question is this bill from the hospital?
3:27:37
Said with the bill from his insurance.
3:27:39
It's a statement from his insurance company that they did
3:27:41
not cover that. So here's my question Council.
3:27:44
If Mr. Mask guy doesn't have that money to pay out of pocket
3:27:47
and he has to pay as he gets it from your client you I'm sorry
3:27:51
Mr. Cunningham if he doesn't have the money to pay out of
3:27:54
pocket and that one lump sum then your proof of payment is
3:27:59
not going to be there at all. So perhaps and I don't know,
3:28:03
maybe Mr. Cunningham has to wait until he's paid prostitution by
3:28:06
your client before. You can pay that bill and full.
3:28:08
I have no idea. I understand that you are This
3:28:13
doesn't. I just saw this, you know,
3:28:17
attached It. Yes, fierce baby. plan was put
3:28:26
to the hospital and finding Mr. Mazdas.
3:28:31
Testimony. This is rejecting the claim it's
3:28:36
not Mr. Cunningham's Mexican. Yes.
3:28:39
I don't see where this document says that.
3:28:43
All right, so what I'm going to learn a direct Mr. Cunningham to
3:29:04
just get something from his insurance company.
3:29:06
Indicating that he is the one that's responsible for that
3:29:08
balance. There you go, once we get that
3:29:11
and we can figure out the exact amount, great.
3:29:14
All right. Anything else other than that?
3:29:18
Right Mr. He's located that we're asking to recommendation
3:29:25
without it. Here's this Court's going to do.
3:29:31
this court, um, Has serious serious concerns.
3:29:37
Regarding Mr. Man's guy in the safety of this community.
3:29:39
Any Community quite frankly. Because Mr. Math guy.
3:29:45
As he's even indicated, doesn't even know Mr. Cunningham yet.
3:29:51
Behaved in this. Incredulous.
3:29:56
Behavior. Where somebody he didn't even
3:29:59
know what this four year old daughter in the car.
3:30:06
And it's all so clear to this court that Mr. Mal's behaviors
3:30:10
continued to escalate and so Mrs. Guy definitely needs some
3:30:14
assistance in managing that anger.
3:30:17
The Court's going to get after hearing from Mr. Man's Guy Mr.
3:30:22
Gold. Paw Mister Cunningham that in
3:30:27
review of the report, the recommendation, the police
3:30:30
report, the criminal history, Of Mr. Mask guy, the court does
3:30:35
find that there's reasonable grounds to departments, feel
3:30:38
some of the six nine point five. The court also finds the
3:30:41
following sentence to be in the best interest of Justice to be
3:30:43
reasonable and proportionate to the seriousness of the matter.
3:30:46
Taking into account the circumstances surrounding Mr.

Man's guy. The Court's going to order 180
3:30:53

Just a cute little room. It's so tiny. um desks that two
3:37:35
people can barely fit behind. It.
3:37:37
Looks like at least from the camera angle a fairly low
3:37:39
ceiling. I kind of expect that the the
3:37:44
pews back there the seating probably pull out into beds just
3:37:48
feels like it's it's got this tiny home feel so I thought I
3:37:53
would share kind of unique. Let's do this.
3:37:56
Let's go. Speaking of Ohio not judge
3:38:01
colada, but back to judge O'Donnell.
3:38:06
I'm getting her treatment and placing a plan we discussed in
3:38:11
in Chambers genre. She is asking this court to
3:38:14
grant that motion. She's prepared to enter a plea
3:38:16
of information. I discussed the information one
3:38:20
cow. Charged with her as well as the
3:38:23
way you were in date to the Lake County grand jury anticipate
3:38:26
that pleased to be forth coming today.
3:38:27
She's confident to go forward. I see no other reasons why we
3:38:30
could not go for it on this today.
3:38:32
Thank you. She's got, 16 separate entries.
3:39:02
On her record. Ranging from minor misdemeanors
3:39:08
to misdemeanor ones. So why is this appropriate for
3:39:11
intervention? Yes, your honor.
3:39:16
Thank you. She recognizes that she brings
3:39:19
to the to the table today. These are many misdemeanors that
3:39:25
are in her past. She's hoping to rectify that she
3:39:29
has not yet somehow got a felony charge and until this this
3:39:35
matter. I so she has at least before his
3:39:39
too late before she overdosed her.
3:39:41
Or did something more drastic with her medical condition, has
3:39:45
recognized a great need for treatment and this matter today,
3:39:49
and she has been attending a meeting.
3:39:52
She assigned medical releases. She has, I think she started
3:39:57
with Signature Health and his now moved on to to Lake jail and
3:40:01
formed a plan, which she will start and intensive Outpatient
3:40:04
Treatment and this month you're on her.
3:40:07
She'd be willing to do anything additional that.
3:40:10
The court May order including mental health assessment meeting
3:40:13
with the psychiatrist or psychologist, Taking any mental
3:40:16
health medications, that may be prescribed to her as well as
3:40:20
meaningfully participate in her treatment plan, your honor.
3:40:24
She knows that the court does not have to Grant this even
3:40:28
though she qualifies for she knows the court, could say, you
3:40:31
know what? You can just do this all on
3:40:33
probation and not get ilc. We know we're putting ourselves
3:40:36
in the situation where we're asking the court and it is a big
3:40:40
ask, you're on our special light of her past, but again she is 46
3:40:47
years old. She's got plenty of time to turn
3:40:51
things around. She's been doing very well on
3:40:54
bond. Has not demonstrated that she is
3:40:56
a bond violator and I think this is a good indication for her
3:40:59
future Behavior. While her past behavior is a
3:41:01
great concerned of the Court. I'd like to court to ship Focus.
3:41:05
Their future behavior, in light of the documentation that she's
3:41:09
provided, she's been in contact with my office.
3:41:11
Regarding the steps that she's taking.
3:41:14
She's got support from her sister, she is Gamefly employed
3:41:18
at Chipotle no issues there with her job.
3:41:21
So she is contributing meatly to society.
3:41:24
I don't believe she poses I can continue danger to herself or
3:41:27
others despite the misdemeanor record here.
3:41:30
Thank you. To an office to the intervention
3:41:34
request. Now, the state would not be
3:41:35
opposed to be greater than All right, I will grant the motion

3:53:17
time to squeeze in one more for today.
3:53:19
Let's, let's do one more from Judge aquilina.
3:53:46
This is docket 254848628 vs Terrier.
3:53:55
Counselor, your parents good morning on April, Michigan and
3:54:00
attorney Luke good at the Republic, under his officer to
3:54:02
represent Street Garrett, who was standing to my right circus,
3:54:05
raise your right hand to swear her firm.
3:54:08
The testimony about to provide me the truth and nothing but the
3:54:11
truth under penalty of perjury Yes, I do.
3:54:14
Thank you for your hand on. This is a final criminal
3:54:16
pretrial servicing any medication yesterday, or today
3:54:19
used to be alcohol and marijuana.
3:54:22
Any sign of fever covid or other illness come out and you've had
3:54:28
enough time to speak with your attorney?
3:54:32
All right. And this has been offering
3:54:36
either or both files and so your honor that there has been a
3:54:40
change in circumstances in this case, your honor, as of
3:54:43
yesterday, the people were informed and made aware of new
3:54:47
criminal charges that Mr. Garrett has I have given a copy
3:54:53
of that police report over to council Um, what I am seeing
3:54:58
your honor is a, it was recently, it was charged
3:55:02
yesterday for a new assault. Strangulation charging.
3:55:06
It's the same victim, your honor that's in 25-4 848, Dash FH.
3:55:13
So your honor, I believe at this point, there would be a
3:55:17
potential violation of the no contact order, as well as
3:55:21
additional new charges being filed.
3:55:23
The people are concerned, your honors special due to the fact
3:55:26
that there is a no contact order in this other case.
3:55:30
And that there is a seat, there's a victim that there are
3:55:34
the same exact charges you're on Earth.
3:55:35
I will say that this client be victim.
3:55:39
On this case is on Zoom at this point in time and you're honored
3:55:43
because of all this I believe that we need a we need a we need
3:55:47
to a sentencing at this point in time to deal with the pa-53
3:55:50
violation. That's right now children we're
3:55:54
not In final pretrial, the yes, correct your honor.
3:56:00
I will say looking at me trial docket, it is the last one on
3:56:07
the docket, on April 17th, but I do believe based off of this
3:56:12
police report that I received in to counsel at this point in time
3:56:15
I believe we need to have a p53 violation Hearing in regards to
3:56:19
these allegations your honor and additionally.
3:56:22
I I think that Mr. Garrett should be put in custody at this
3:56:27
time. Until the phd3 violation can be
3:56:30
heard. As there are allegations that
3:56:32
the defendant is having contact with the victim, but not only
3:56:35
contact with violent contact geometry.
3:56:38
And your honor System Crossing attorney Adam Pfeiffer, as well
3:56:41
with people I was doing this case yesterday.
3:56:43
The officers found surveillance video showing that the defendant
3:56:47
was there at the scene where the victim told the police the crime
3:56:50
happened. Where she told him shortly
3:56:53
outside of that scene. So it corroborates, their
3:56:56
statements so let me ask you this.
3:57:00
Setting aside the violation for a moment was there, any offer in
3:57:05
this? Your honor, there was an offer,
3:57:09
that was conveyed. However, based on these new
3:57:11
charges that were just charged yesterday, there's going to need
3:57:15
to be a reevaluation of that state offer.
3:57:20
Mr. Goodrich, thank you, honor. I was alerted of this situation
3:57:25
this morning, I would say before that, this The alleged victim in
3:57:32
case you did all social send a letter to the prosecutor's
3:57:34
office in, December or camping all of her previous statements
3:57:36
in the matter. I, I don't know what's going to
3:57:40
shape of this. It's my understanding that
3:57:43
they're intending to file charges.
3:57:44
Its I don't see in 54 that they have received those charges as
3:57:47
of yet. I would ask the court to
3:57:49
essentially hold off on doing anything to address his bond at
3:57:52
this time. If they do file charges, you
3:57:55
will need to be arraigned on that case.
3:57:56
And we'll have a bond set on that case.
3:57:58
That will not be a PR Bond based on the fact that he is currently
3:58:02
on felony bond in this matter. So and if we were to proceed
3:58:06
with some type of hearing on this matter, essentially he
3:58:10
would be unable to defend himself because any missions
3:58:12
here would be used against him in the, in the new case.
3:58:16
So I would ask the court to essentially adjourn this out a
3:58:20
while and let let the matter play out and just record if the
3:58:24
Prosecutors Office fight going to file a new charges down
3:58:27
there, we have the film available.
3:58:30
I don't believe that we have it. The officers detail, what?
3:58:33
They just saw in it that they got from ask protection at the
3:58:36
mire. That was okay, where it happened
3:58:38
to clarifier on it. There's evidence that he that
3:58:42
there was filmed him leaving. Meijer not with her.
3:58:44
She was in a vehicle outside of Meijer outside of my room and he
3:58:50
was gone by the time, the police arrives.
3:58:51
So Okay, so does this. Film depict contact or just
3:59:00
being at the same. Meijer it cooperates that he was
3:59:03
at that Meyer at the shortly. After the victim says the
3:59:07
incident happened. She went across the street to
3:59:09
meet with the police for safety. It happened in the vehicle
3:59:11
outside of Meijer, she was driving me there and then he
3:59:15
started strangling her demanding money from her.
3:59:17
Okay. Do we have the part Myers films
3:59:21
are pretty amazing? Um, do we have if they've got
3:59:26
its captured the vehicle, Know, it's the video of him inside the
3:59:33
mark they went and they confirmed that it was his his
3:59:36
face, his clothing that they gave, okay?
3:59:39
But Again, that'll be alone alone by himself in my okay.
3:59:45
But if I had just understood, you are you telling me at some
3:59:48
point? He was in her vehicle?
3:59:50
Yes. In the Meijer parking lot.
3:59:52
Do you feel nearby? The monkey, then gets She's able
3:59:56
to get away, he gets out of the car and goes into the mire.
3:59:59
She's able to get into her car and drive away from the speedway
4:00:01
across the street, where she meets with police pretty soon.
4:00:06
After to answer the Court's question, there is no film with
4:00:09
him of these two in the vehicle in the microphone that we're
4:00:12
aware. But this time, right?
4:00:14
And did she seek medical attention?
4:00:16
Are there were there cruises Etc in a police report noted or not?
4:00:21
You honored. There was she did complain as
4:00:23
minor of neck pain and there was redness found around her neck.
4:00:27
I will say she did refuse medical treatment, but there was
4:00:30
redness down around her neck. All right until they just can be
4:00:35
shorted it out and you are a managed to think and county jail
4:00:38

4:00:42

4:00:45

4:00:53
How much time do you all need to prepare?
4:00:57
Honor of the people have been in contact with the victim in this
4:01:00
matter. I would say a week or two at
4:01:02
most and you run out of, we would ask that that be
4:01:07
Indefinitely adjourn. Because again, we're happy
4:01:10
probable cause conference and preliminary exam.
4:01:13
They haven't even been scheduled on on these these allegations
4:01:16
because they haven't filed the charges yet. so we would ask the
4:01:20
court to hold such an end thing in advance and definitely Are
4:01:25
the Chargers going to be? I've been drafted after, I was
4:01:33
informed by prosecutor fight for these charges.
4:01:36
I did go to the warrant unit and tell them to put this expedited.
4:01:40
So the charges should be getting two fifty four.
4:01:44
A as soon as today you're on I see my understanding that one
4:01:48
was offered and the case filed in district court yesterday.
4:01:51
So likely just wanted to either today or tomorrow.
4:01:57
I'm going to set this for, I don't know how long it's going
4:02:01
to take but let's try May 13th at 9:30. and then you can move
4:02:09
that date backward or forward depending on What's going on?
4:02:13
