Attorney Brian Tevis represented one of two college students who were codefendants in case involving armed robbery of a convenience store. The robbery was caught on surveillance cameras and a friend of the two defendants had told police that the accused had admitted to “hitting a lick” at the store. Additionally, a distinct looking firearm was found in their vehicle. The state offered 20 years in prison, with the first 10 years of their sentence having no possibility of parole.
After a three day trial in Carroll County where Attorney Tevis aggressively defended the rights of his client, the jury only took about 17 minutes to deliberate before they returned to the courtroom. They deemed them not guilty on all four counts, which included armed robbery, aggravated assault, and two counts of possession of a firearm during a felony.
