The attorney representing the man seen slapping an autistic boy at a Pacoima bus stop expressed his client's remorse after the arraignment for the misdemeanor case.'He's extremely saddened and remorseful about the incident,' attorney James Blatt said. 'Had he had knowledge that this young boy was autistic or had some disability, he would have never approached him.
'Sakajian did not appear at his arraignment because of threats, according to his attorney.'He has his reasons, I guess,' Morales family attorney Antonio Villegas said. 'I surely would have shown my face, if I had committed such a heinous act against a defenseless, homeless, autistic child. The more he delays this, the longer the public will judge him outside of this court.
