On this week’s episode, Kenzie and Ame discuss the case of the one punch assault by Brandon Joyner from the A&E series Accused: Guilty or Innocent. Brandon was your typical 20 year old college student, working a part time job, attending classes, hanging out with friends and living at home with his mom and dad. One evening, he and his friends were together in his front yard when they hear neighbor David Turner, in a drunken rage, throwing his disabled son-in-law down the front steps of his porch. Being a Good Samaritan, Brandon walks across the street to assist the man they call New York into his vehicle and away from Turner’s anger. But filled with the liquid courage, 65 year old Turner’s aggression focuses on the next big challenge in his way: Brandon. Without much consideration, and scared for his own well being, Brandon throws a punch that knocks David Turner to the ground and results in a traumatic brain injury that changes the course of his life forever. Now, Brandon is looking at being prosecuted by the state and faces up to 20 years behind bars if he can’t prove this was done in self-defense.
