TOMMY ADLER
(OKC) won an acquittal on Wednesday, September 14, 2005, for his client, described as a "salon manager" on thirteen (13!) counts ranging from kidnapping to assault & battery with a dangerous weapon; with a count of discharging a firearm from a vehicle thrown in for good measure. The State alleged that the client became enraged when a customer answered the phone at the salon; and witnesses supposedly saw client pull a gun and start striking several persons in the salon with a gun when it would not fire. Tommy apparently convinced the jury otherwise. Very nice!
12.2005 : I am informed that Tommy presented a Motion to Quash in a drug case just prior to jury selection. Motion granted! Mr. Client go home (or onto your next case, whichever the case may be!) Great job, Tommy, and fill us in on some details.
12.2005 Okla. Co. Pub. Def., has been on a roll lately, this time obtaining a Not Guilty in an Assault w/Intent to Kill case. I spoke to Tommy at the Oklahoma County Criminal Defense Lawyers Meeting last Thursday and he mentioned that the case involved a homeowner who was attacked in his home. Fairly gruesome facts in that apparently client popped this chap's eye out of its socket during the fight. Good self-defense case and Tommy said the facts were the best he's ever seen. The DA was Mike Fisher and Tommy said Mike addressed the jury in the closing and told them he could live with a NG verdict(!) Tommy was surprised to hear that. I have never heard a DA say something like that, but he apparently realized the facts were bad, too. I will have to check, but I think this is three in a row for Mr. Adler(!!!) Outstanding job, Tommy!
