| Son Of Jackson County Judge Pleads No Contest To Armed Robbery |
| Posted By Freedman & Freedman |
 |
Charles Schmucker of Jackson, the 25 year old son of Jackson County Circuit Court Judge Chad Schmucker, has pled no contest to two counts of armed robbery. Schmucker reportedly accepted a plea bargain moments before a jury trial was to begin on Monday. It was reported that Schmucker also pled no contest to two aggravated assault charges. All charges allegedly stemmed from an incident in which Schmucker robbed two men in a dispute stemming from a marijuana deal. A no contest plea is not an admission of guilt but is treated as such for sentencing purposes. A plea of this type is typically utilized if the Defendant is anticipating civil litigation. It is expected that Schmucker will be sentenced on May 19.

| Farmington Hills Road Rage Suspect Pleads Not Guilty At Arraignment |
| Posted By Freedman & Freedman |
|
Carl Mintz, the 27 year old Farmington Hills man accused of shooting a fellow driver who approached his car during an altercation, pled not guilty at his Arraignment on Tuesday to charges of assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder and felony firearm.
According to police, both men were traveling north on Orchard Lake Road in Farmington Hills on Monday afternoon when Mintz upset the 20 year old driver behind him by tapping his brakes repeatedly. The victim then approached Mintz's car where the two exchanged words resulting in Mintz shooting him in the arm. Mintz does have a permit to carry a concealed weapon, remained on the scene and called 911 after the shooting. "It's not like I wanted to shoot the guy," Mintz said yesterday during his Arraignment at the 47th District Court in Farmington Hills before the Judge suggested he may want to speak with his lawyer before saying too much. "(He) got out of the car, and he scared me."

| Hockey Coach Charged with Assault & Battery After Fight with Opposing Coach |
| Posted By Freedman & Freedman |

A hockey coach has been charged with a misdemeanor count of
assault & battery after punching the opposing team’s coach during a brawl on the ice.
The incident began when the two coaches, one from Allen Park and one from Taylor, had a verbal confrontation. According to reports, the Allen Park coach told the Taylor coach that he was a bad coach and a poor sportsman. The Taylor coach then shoved the Allen Park coach onto the ice.
Moments later a large group of people rushed onto the ice and began fighting. When a referee tried to break up the fight and help the Allen Park coach off the ice, the Taylor coach jumped on top of the referee and began punching the Allen Park coach in the face repeatedly.
The Taylor coach was arrested and charged with assault & battery, but was later released after posting $300 bond.
