The case of State of San Andreas v. Swat Nixon is hereby activated and opened by this Court.

Be advised that the bench-trial court system runs on a weekly time-slot system. The prosecution and defense are hereby ordered to provide their evidence to the Court via Motion for Discovery within the next 30 days or file a Motion for Continuance.

If at any point in time the defendant or prosecution wishes set precedence or desire a formal criminal trial, they are welcome to file a Motion for a Change in Venue.

The Defendant, by and through the undersigned attorney, filed this Motion for Change of Venue, and the reasoning for request is as follows;

• Requested Venue: Formal Criminal Trial
  • Detailed Explanation: A charge like this should not be handled within a bench trial. This is a serious charge that has made the defendant unable to apply for business licenses, property requests, property leases and a firearms license. Allowing a charge of this severity to be held in a bench trial would not allow the defense to work on this case at our full potential. A longer trial would also allow us to analyze the evidence better and give our own evidence within this case. We also believe that precedence should be allowed in this case, with the severity of this charge.

• Honorable Judge Yukimura,
  
  This was explained to the defendant and the defendant seemed to have no issues with getting this trial moved to a formal criminal trial. The defendant does understand that this will be a longer case

The court will be granting the defense's request to hear this as a Formal Criminal Trial. We are rescinding the order for discovery due to the transition of this case from bench trial to formal criminal trial. As such both parties will be notified when they are ordered to provide any evidence to the court via a Motion for Discovery.

The court thanks all parties for their patience in this matter, and expects to have the case re-activated as a Formal Criminal Trial sooner than later.


Respectfully,

  Witness Information

  • Name: Jim Daniel
    Date of Birth: 09/JAN/1998
    Phone Number: 385-3479
    Occupation: Deputy Sheriff 2

  Witness Statement

  • I was patrolling the city when I ran a plate of a vehicle that was reported as stolen. I requested backup and pulled the vehicle over. I stepped out to speak with the driver and he was at first compliant. He gave me his ID when requested. The ID identified the driver to me as Swat Nixon. I asked Mr. Nixon to step out of the vehicle. Mr. Nixon refused and turned the vehicle on before driving away. My backup units pursued the suspect while I caught up. Mr. Nixon fled to Eclipse Apartments where he exited his vehicle and jumped on a Hakuchou Drag. Myself and other units boxed the motorbike in until Mr. Nixon got off and surrendered to us. I put mechanical restraints on Mr. Nixon to keep his hands secured behind his back while I read him his rights and patted him down. Mr. Nixon stated that he understood his rights. During my search, I located the ID again as well as some body armor. I removed all the items from Mr. Nixon that the DOC would not allow. I then escorted Mr. Nixon to my cruiser and secured him in the back seat. I drove Mr. Nixon to the Department of Corrections while other units secured the vehicles.
    Once I arrived to the DOC, I opened the back door and let Mr. Nixon out so that we could go through the front vestibule to get processed. As we were walking to the door, I heard over the department radio that the DOC staff has located a bomb in the front lobby. I told Mr. Nixon to stop but he quickly walked into the lobby. DOC staff joined me and I asked Mr. Nixon to exit the building multiple times. He refused and stated the bomb belonged to him. I asked him how he got possession of a bomb and Mr. Nixon stated that he had someone drop it off before we arrived. He stated that his accomplice was close by and watching the front parking lot and that this accomplice had the detonator to the bomb.
    I noticed that there was someone else in the front lobby. I tried to speak with them to get them to come out but I received no answer. Mr. Nixon stated that there were three people in the lobby with him and they were his hostage's.
    Mr. Nixon stated that he had demands. He first wanted to be uncuffed. Second, he wanted his belongings back. Third he wanted a high speed vehicle.
    Around this time some PD units including Officer Laurant Conrad and Deputy Sheriff 2 Mason Ross arrived on scene and secured the front parking lot. I informed them of my conversation with Mr. Nixon over Tac radio. Officer Conrad approached the door to take over negotiations.
    Officer Laurant stated that no one was able to retrieve a high speed vehicle. Mr. Nixon requested a Shinobi. Again Officer Laurant stated that no one was high enough rank to get that vehicle. Mr. Nixon agreed to a Police marked Buffalo. The agreement was that he would be uncuffed by Officer Laurant and I would hand over his belongings, including the body armor. Also a Police marked Buffalo would be outside the front door running with the door open. Myself and Officer Laurant would enter the lobby at the same time as Mr. Nixon leaving the lobby. Mr. Nixon would leave while Myself and Officer Laurant retrieve the bomb and secure it in a vehicle outside. Mr. Nixon stated that if he was chased then his accomplice would detonate the bomb.
    We complied with the demands and as soon as the bomb was secured in a armored vehicle then other units attempted to pursue. They were unable to keep up and lost sight of Mr. Nixon.

  Witness Statement

  • [
    My involvement in this incident began at the Department of Corrections when Deputy Jim Daniels arrived at the facility with Swat Nixon in custody. After Deputy Daniels let Nixon out of the cruiser, I saw him quickly run inside the building. Upon entering the lobby, Nixon must have noticed a bag with a note suggesting it contained an explosive device.
    
    Nixon immediately “took charge” of the situation, attempting to negotiate his own release (from the arrest GF11 VF01 WM05). Throughout the incident, he claimed to have spotters monitoring the area, a remote detonator, and threatened to detonate the device if his demands weren’t met.
    
    I radioed PD to check if there was any EOD personnel on duty. Fortunately, a firefighter who is also a METRO negotiator clocked in at PD and took over the situation. The negotiator successfully handled the matter by letting Swat walk free and letting us handle the bag, which was empty. We tried looking at CCTV but so much time had passed we could not rewind enough time to see who placed the bag, but Mr Nixon claim he had it planted
