State of Florida v. Randall Burton Keith

My client was charged with 2 counts of Aggravated Assault with a Firearm and 1 count of Felony Criminal Mischief. The State of Florida alleged that my client pointed a firearm and threatened two victims in the parking lot of the Undertow Bar on St. Pete Beach.

One victim claimed that he had a gun pressed against the back of his head (more than once). He also stated that my client put the firearm inside his mouth.

My client was also charged with felony criminal mischief for using his firearm to smash/break the victim's sunroof.

Because my client was looking at a three (3) year mandatory/minimum prison sentence, up to a maximum of 35 years in prison, he was forced to take his case to trial.

After a three (3) day trial and about 2.5 hours of jury deliberation, my client was found NOT GUILTY on all three (3) felony charges.
