BRIAN ASPAN & SHANNON MCMURRAY
(Tulsa), tried a first degree murder case that ended in a Manslaughter I conviction and a 20 year sentence. The case was well-publicized in Tulsa and involved a client who was charged with using his car to strike and kill another man with whom client had been fighting. The incident happened near a bar and the victim apparently had a .19 BAC. Defense was accident and client took the stand in his own defense. Interesting twist is that the judge sua sponte instructed on Man. I over defense objection (defense wanted "all or nothing"). Any time you walk into the courtroom with a client facing life or LWOP and walk out with substantially less and a dynamite appellate issue, I'd call that a victory.
