Georgia-Mae Chung’s Client Acquitted of Affray in Multi-Handed Trial

Georgia-Mae Chung’s client faced one count of affray and was on trial alongside his co-defendant, his brother-in-law. Another of his family members had already pleaded guilty to affray.  

An altercation had broken out amongst a group involving a machete and a baseball bat. It was alleged that Georgia-Mae’s client had committed affray by throwing an open can of liquid in the direction of those fighting.

The jury heard evidence of Georgia-Mae’s client’s good character and his intention to break up the fight, as well as the decision that had been made to take no further action against one of the armed members of the group.

Georgia-Mae was instructed and assisted by Kyrone Sammy of IBB Criminal Law.
