Videos tagged with Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon

This video from Armed Attorneys discusses a case involving unlawful carrying of a weapon where the defendant was 17 years old and acted in self-defense. The discussion highlights the importance of probable cause hearings, particularly in self-defense cases, and clarifies that Texas law, as interpreted by case law like Andrews v. McCraw, does not prohibit individuals under 21 from carrying a handgun in certain circumstances, especially when acting in defense of others. The legal team emphasizes that prosecutors sometimes misapply the law and that a strong defense can lead to dismissal of charges.
