The defense attorney for Alex Foreman said that the victims shot first during the chaotic incident, raising a self-defense argument that Foreman could have used at a trial.
OAKLAND — The suspect in a shootout that left two 17-year-old boys dead has been sentenced to six years in state prison through a plea agreement with Alameda County prosecutors, court records show.but those charges were dropped as part of a plea deal. He was transferred to state prison on July 16, records show.
Foreman’s lawyer, Darryl Stallworth, said in an interview that had the case gone to trial, he would have argued self-defense. He said that Mitchell fired the first shots, killing Alley, and that Foreman was in fear of being killed when he allegedly fired back. At the time of Foreman’s arrest, police said they had video evidence as well as interviews with a member of Alley’s family to back up the allegations. They said that a deal was arranged to sell dozens of bags of cannabis labeled “Frosties Strain” and that Foreman — who went by “Bub” — intended to Mitchell and another person who was there at gunpoint.
