TYPE OF CASE-Criminal
SUMMARY OF FACTS
Scott Mayo worked as a bartender at The Local Watering Hole. One night at work, Scott got into an argument with Basil Scowen. Mayo owed Scowen $1500.00. The argument heated up and, after Scowen picked up a beer bottle threateningly and appeared to be intoxicated, Mayo grabbed a pistol kept behind the bar and fired at Scowen, killing him. Mayo says Scowen told him, \u201cI am going to\u00a0kill you,\u201d and what he believed was imminent danger from Scowen. \u00a0Mayo was placed under arrest. He was not read his rights. He was transported to the local county jail. The prosecution witnesses are the police officer, who came to the scene and took statements from Mayo, and a frequent bar customer, Dawn Dietz, who witnessed some of what happened. The defense witnesses are the defendant, Mayo, and Joe, \u201cthe fireman\u201d, who was outside and saw some of the action through the window while sitting on the patio.\u00a0
