It looks as though neither boxer Mike Tyson nor paparazzi photographer Tony Echeverria will be in need of their Los Angeles criminal defense attorneys with the start of this new year. The Los Angeles city attorney’s office decided not to charge Tyson and Echeverria after their brawl at the Los Angeles International Airport last November, due to “insufficient evidence.” “We took a look at the evidence and concluded that there was insufficient evidence that either party was at fault beyond a reasonable doubt,” said Frank Mateljan, spokesman for the city attorney’s office in the Los Angeles Times . “It didn’t rise to the level of filing a charge.” The fight between Tyson and Echeverria gained a lot of media attention last November immediately after the incident occurred

It’s something that you would think only happens in a movie. Any television watcher has probably watched a scene where the criminals tie a person to the wall with duct tape, and then do damage to the property of some sort while the victim is observing. In real life, people are a little more clever and aren’t stupid enough to do such a thing
