Why you need an experienced criminal defense attorney.
Three Canoga Park men believed to be members of a Latin street gang have been hit with various California murder charges stemming from a December 22, 2008 shooting outside Canoga Park Bowl, a neighborhood bowling alley.
Richard Bordelon, 21, Martin Sotelo, 23, and a third 15-year-old suspect are being prosecuted for the shooting and killing of James Shamp, a 48-year-old worker at the bowling alley. Bordelon and Sotelo are being charged with one count of murder and conspiracy to commit a crime because of race as well as one count of attempted second-degree robbery stemming from a separate incident. Sotelo was also charged with one count of unlawful driving or taking of a vehicle and one count of evading an officer. The 15-year-old suspect was charged in Juvenile Court with intentionally committing murder because of race, street gang killing and discharging a weapon.
All of the above charges are serious felony matters. They require an experienced criminal defense attorney on your side.
