My question involves criminal law for the state of: Texas
In my area, a man has been accused of making a Terrorist Threat at his son's school. The school, police and the media do not have accurate facts regarding this incident. I got third hand information that came in and asked questions about school security, no threat, no gun, no demanding demeanor. The media got a hold of this and didn't let up.
Did this man get arrested for the wrong charge? Besides getting an attorney, is this innocent man going down? Some friends are helping him out, his employer has suspended him without pay. Is there any good information I can share with the family.
There are too many conflicting stories, and I am a believer in innocent until proven guilty.......Thanks. Jeff
P.S. Can he sue the school district or city for defam?
