We have a system of innocent until proven guilty in this country, and the illegal possession charge is the only one I have seen proof of his guilt for.
I neglected to raise the following point when I initially responded to this post. I agree with your assessment, but it should be noted that he should be tried for illegal possession in juvenile court, not adult, as he was a minor at the time. The only reason he is in adult court is due to a direct filing by the DA. Which BTW has been removed as an option in CA as leftists do not believe this is fair or just and that only a judge should be able to send a juvenile case to adult court. Odd that I don't hear anyone mentioning that in regard to this case. If he is indeed acquitted due to self defense, as the two of us agree, then that charge should be certified down to juvenile court and handled there.
