MESA, Arizona (PNN) - March 4, 2016 - Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery decided to bring second degree murder charges against the Mesa terrorist pig thug cop who shot and killed Daniel Shaver at the La Quinta Inn in Mesa. We represent Daniel's widow Laney Sweet and their two young daughters in the wrongful death case. I'm also going to appear in court on the criminal case representing the victims.
On behalf of her two young daughters, the victim Laney Sweet wants everyone to know her husband Daniel Shaver was a wonderful and devoted husband and father. He was a kind, loving and peaceful human being. His tragic and senseless murder has caused irreparable devastation to all their lives.
Today's announcement of second degree murder charges against Mesa terrorist pig thug cop Philip “Mitch” Brailsford is the first step towards justice for Daniel and his family. We commend Maricopa County Attorney Montgomery for his decision to bring these criminal charges, and we fully expect justice will be served.
A thirty-five million dollar notice of claim has already been served upon the City of Mesa and is currently pending. A civil lawsuit is expected to be filed within the next few months.
The civil lawsuit will proceed independent of the criminal case. Marc J. Victor will represent Laney Sweet as a victim in the criminal matter. An initial appearance in the criminal case has been scheduled for March 15, 2016 at 2:00 pm.
