GUILTY NV - Man charged in male revue costume robbery, shooting, Las Vegas, 18 March 2014

A Nevada judge set a June 22 trial date for a 25-year-old man accused of firing a gun while trying to steal costumes and props from "Thunder From Down Under" male revue cast members on the Las Vegas Strip...

Kadmiri's first trial ended in a mistrial last July after a juror reported seeing media reports of the proceedings.

Authorities say a 55-year-old cast member of the Australian-themed men's revue was slightly injured by debris from a wall after Kadmiri fired a .44 Magnum handgun near the man's head. Several heavily-muscled male dancers subdued Kadmiri until police arrived at the Excalibur. Kadmiri was left with a black eye and bruises.

A Las Vegas man who admitted firing a gun while trying to steal costumes and props from the Thunder From Down Under male revue in March 2014 has been sentenced to 10 to 25 years in Nevada state prison.

Joey Kadmiri told a Clark County District Court judge on Thursday that he used methamphetamine before the backstage shooting at the Excalibur that police said left two show employees with gunpowder burns.

His attorneys, Yi Lin Zheng and John Momot, said the 26-year-old Kadmiri was abused as a child by his father and has continuing mental illness.

Kadmiri pleaded guilty last November to felony weapon, battery and theft charges in the Thunder case — and to battery with a deadly weapon causing substantial bodily injury in a separate domestic violence case.
