Richland County – Second Degree Reckless Homicide Not Guilty Verdict

Attorney Saperstein’s client was charged with Reckless Homicide for allegedly shoving a terminally ill landlord in a dispute over rent; the landlord died two weeks later. Attorney Saperstein convinced the jury to acquit the client on the homicide charge, arguing that medical evidence could not decisively show that the landlord died from the push and fall, but rather than from the terminal illness.
