R.R. was stopped by the police as a passenger in the vehicle, and was asked if he had a valid driver's license. R.R. answered that he did not have a valid license and was subsequently jailed due to th ... e officer's assertion that he had seen R.R. driving 20 minutes earlier. R.R. elected to have a jury trial due to the harassment he had received at the hands of the police.

The law does not require that any of us stand by and allow another person to physically harm us. The law allows each and every one of us to use whatever force necessary to defend ourselves when we have ... a reasonable belief that we are under attack. When the alleged victim attacked M.A. in his house, M.A. did what he believed was necessary to protect himself. 150 lbs, 5 foot 5, 16-year-old versus 200 lb. 18-year-old. When the two hundred pound frame came rushing towards M.A., his heart began to pound, terror overcame him. After enduring multiple blows to his side, M.A. was finally able to rid himself of a headlock and grabs the closest object he could find, a metal pole. M.A.'s single blow was reasonable. It was justified. And it was done in self‐defense.
