Could the tragic loss of these innocent bystanders have been prevented are justice and compensation available to the victims’ families?

A second man has been charged in the deaths of Marlon Jermaine Williams and Ann Kathleen Leonard, innocent bystanders killed during a robbery “at Jaffary’s Food Court” on April 14, 2018, according to The Macon Telegraph. Mr. Williams and Ms. Leonard were fatally struck in the subsequent gunfire.

Macon police told 13 WMAZ they have now made a second arrest in connection to the two homicides. With the gunmen in custody, another party’s role in this tragedy comes into question.

Was negligent security a factor in this shooting? Read Our Legal Take below to find out if the victims’ families may have legal avenues for justice and claims for substantial compensation in Georgia.

Our Legal Take

Store patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided at the store and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.

  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on or near property?
  • What security measures, such as weapons screenings, bright lighting, monitored surveillance cameras, and visible security personnel, were in place to deter crime and protect the victims at the time of the shooting?

By law, property owners in Georgia are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm.  Should the facts of this matter reveal that the store owner or management company failed to provide adequate security, the families of Marlon Jermaine Williams and Ann Kathleen Leonard may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their wrongful deaths.

Macon News

Joan and John Woodford, of Macon, were reportedly killed when their pickup truck collided with a tractor trailer Sunday afternoon, December 16, 2018.

According to The Union Recorder, the “fatal collision happened at the intersection of Vinson Highway, also known as GA Highway 112, and the Fall Line Freeway, near the Georgia Veterans Memorial Cemetery..”

Georgia State Patrol told The Macon Telegraph, a “tractor trailer traveling south on Ga. 112 ran the stop sign at the GA. 243 intersection and was struck in the left side by the Woodfords’ Ford F-150.” The tractor trailer subsequently “overturned onto the pickup.”

Our Legal Take

As the details of this tragedy continue to develop, and if the tractor trailer driver is found to be at fault, the family of Mr. and Mrs. Woodford may elect to file civil claims in their wrongful deaths.

Based upon its experience and success handling motor vehicle accident claims in Georgia, The Murray Law Firm suggests that the Woodford family should retain an experienced personal injury firm to protect their interests and ensure an unbiased investigation. Photographs of the vehicles and roadways involved and a review of traffic surveillance footage will need to be performed immediately before any evidence is damaged or destroyed.

The Murray Law Firm has obtained over $100 million dollars in verdicts and settlements for its Clients, including for victims of Georgia motor vehicle accidents such as this one. We represent our Clients on a contingency agreement, which generally means that no fees or payments are owed until and unless we recover. Anyone seeking further information or legal representation is encouraged to contact us via e-mail (click here) or by telephone at CALL NOW: 478.246.1010. Consultations are free and confidential.

Could this senseless Decatur apartment shooting have been prevented are justice and compensation available to the victim?

Gunfire erupted following a fight at a Decatur apartment complex early Monday morning, December 17, 2018.

According to FOX 5, officers responded to shots fired “at the Austin Oaks Apartments off Glenwood Road…just before 3 a.m.” A male victim was transported to the hospital with a gunshot wound to the head. His identity and current condition have not been released.

The property was apparently the location of a prior shooting investigation in June 2017, per AJC reports. The incidents raise grave questions over security measures at the complex.

Was negligent security a factor in this shooting? Read Our Legal Take below to find out if the victim may have legal avenues for justice and claims for substantial compensation in Georgia.

Our Legal Take

Apartment residents and guests have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided at the apartment complex and whether this shooting may have been prevented.

  • What additional security measures, such as gated entry, fencing, bright lighting, monitored surveillance cameras, and visible security patrols, were implemented by the apartment complex owner to deter crime and protect residents following media reports of prior violence on property?

By law, property owners in Georgia are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm.  Should the facts of this matter reveal that the apartment complex owner or management company failed to provide adequate security, the victim may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for his injuries.

The Murray Law Firm has recovered millions of dollars for victims of unsafe properties in Georgia, and recently obtained a $29.25 million dollar verdict in Georgia.
