But prosecutors with the Maricopa County Attorney&#8217;s Office said facts didn&#8217;t support Moore&#8217;s story and charged him with second-degree murder.<\/p>\n<p>The case swirled with unanswered questions, as Moore was the only person to witness what truly happened.<\/p>\n<p>After Moore was formally charged, he had to answer a question many criminal defendants face \u2014 is it worth taking a chance at trial when a plea deal might mean less prison time?<\/p>\n<p>Information on whether Moore was offered a plea deal was not immediately available Thursday afternoon. Such offers can take place outside of court between a prosecutor and defense lawyer, but would not be part of the public case docket unless a motion went before a judge. Calls to Moore&#8217;s public defender were not returned.<\/p>\n<p>But Russ Richelsoph, a partner at Davis Miles McGuire Gardner, PLLC, said offers from prosecutors are typical in such cases.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>1 \/ 0 \/ 0<br \/>\nThe rest of the article may e viewed here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azcentral.com\/story\/news\/local\/surprise\/2019\/11\/07\/legal-expert-weighs-ac-repairman-robert-moore-acquittal\/2524689001\/\">AZ Central<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Police seek suspects after armed robbery, assault at Lubbock game room<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Police on Thursday were asking for the public\u2019s help in identifying and locating suspects involved in an aggravated robbery\/aggravated kidnapping Wednesday night at a Central Lubbock game room.<\/p>\n<p>At about 11 p.m. Wednesday, man armed with a handgun entered the Bada Bing Game Room in the 5000 block of Avenue Q and demanded money from Henry Palomo, 46, according to a Lubbock police news release.<\/p>\n<p>Palomo then pulled a handgun on the suspect, and the suspect grabbed a second victim, Isabel Vasquez, 60, and used her as a hostage.
