REDUCED | Aggravated Assault With a GunState v. Mr. R. (Maricopa County Superior Court No. 2001093948CR) Mr. R. was engaged in an argument with his wife after they had both been drinking. He grabbed a gun because he intended to commit suicide. His wife saw him grab the gun and struggled with him, which resulted in the gun being fired inside the house (no one was injured). Police were then called and he was charged with Aggravated Assault/Dangerous against his wife. The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office originally wanted a plea offer of 3.5 years. We were able to get the case reduced to probation with 6 months in jail with work release.
