Virginia Tech Killings Prompt 6-Week Delay Trial of LA Gunman
Because of the "inflammatory nature" of the Virginia Tech massacre perpetrated by Seung-Hui Cho, a Los Angeles criminal defendant is having his trial delayed at least 6 weeks.
Raymond K. Yi, also of South Korean descent, is a sheriff's deputy in Los Angeles. In 2005, he showed his badge and pulled a gun on fellow golfers, threatening to shoot. His defense lawyer (the same man who defended the police who beat Rodney King) claims that Yi's safety really was at risk, while the golfers being threatened report something more like a dangerous emotional breakdown on the part of Yi.
