Summary
What happens when an attempted act of defense turns into a federal criminal case? In this first episode of Freedom on Trial, Andy Marcantel and the Attorneys On Retainer team examine a real case involving defense of a third party, federal charges, and the difficult legal questions that can follow a fast-moving encounter. This episode is not about deciding the case in a YouTube description. It is about helping viewers understand how quickly a situation can escalate, how prosecutors may view the facts differently, and why responsible gun owners need to understand the legal risks that can come after a defensive incident.
