    Default Criminal Recklessness and Intimidation Charges

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Indiana

    I agreed to let my brother-in-law stay next door in a home I recently purchased and got into a heated argument with my wife after receiving pics of all kinds of damage he caused in a drunken rage to my property. He was suicidal last year and she is always on his side. He told his gf he would kick my ass if I tried to evict him among other things.

    So my wife and I were yelling about it and I went upstairs to get away and went to my bedroom window and shot at a tomcat that has been harassing my cat constantly. It had nothing to do with my brother-in-law and it’s impossible to even see that house from my window no matter how much you hang out of it, all you see is my 38 acres. So I go downstairs and she’s still going at it and I told her if he tries to beat me up, I’ll beat the s—- out of him. The kids went over there and told him I was going to beat him up and he called the police.

    I had a friend pick me up and that was that. The next thing I know, they charge me with this. My attorney got the warrant recalled, but I’m up for a preliminary hearing soon. My wife and kids were the only witnesses and they know 100% I wasn’t shooting over there and what I was doing. She wrote down everything that happened and I gave it to my attorney. I shoot out of my window all the time cause it’s the only way I can shoot down into the ravine and at my targets. It had nothing to do with him.

    I was in shock when I found out they filed charges over that. They also took all of my guns. My attorney just told me that he’s going to ask for it to be dissmissed due to no intent. I have a baby on the way, 3 kids that depend on me, and a career that doesn’t allow felony convictions. I absolutely would never hurt anyone or put them in danger. I’ve just been stressed nonstop. I’d be happy to take a polygraph or anything for them.

    Like I said, I never even spoke to my brother-in-law and hadn’t for weeks. I really don’t know how they can prove this and am willing to fight it to the end. What should I expect next? Any info would be great. I’m sorry for the long post, but I wanted to cover everything. Nobody ever told them I was shooting at anything other than into the ravine out my window. I fee like the cops exaggerated the police report cause I wasn’t there.
