Man Ordered to Stand Trial in Shooting of Lady Gaga's Dog Walker

One of three reputed gang members charged with attempted murder in the shooting of Lady Gaga's dog walker and the theft of two of the singer's French bulldogs was ordered Friday to stand trial.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Francis Bennett found sufficient evidence to allow the case against Lafayette Shon Whaley, 27, to proceed to trial

She was so very legally savvy MOO to put out a half million dollar reward for the dogs, not even mentioning the perp who did the shooting and the others.

Smart cookie!... as the trail led to them.

When this first happened Lady Gaga referred to him as a friend, he wasn’t simply her dog-walker. I’m surprised he’s in this position, I’d think she’d help. Unless there are mental health or drug issues and this is a tough-love approach. (?)

''LOS ANGELES (AP) — Federal authorities are offering a $5,000 reward for information about the man who allegedly shot Lady Gaga's dog walker last year in Hollywood and stole two of the pop star's French bulldogs. He was mistakenly released from custody in April and remains missing.

James Howard Jackson, 19, was one of five people arrested in connection the violent robbery in February 2021. He was facing an attempted murder charge when he was released from Los Angeles County’s jail “due to a clerical error.”

''U.S. Marshals, in a statement Monday, said Jackson should be considered armed and dangerous. The reward is for information that leads to his arrest. Authorities previously said Jackson is a documented gang member but have not provided additional information.''
 
I'm glad this guy was recaptured but I wonder how many other people charged with similar violent gun crimes in Los Angeles were "accidentally released due to a clerical error" and were not beholden to a celebrity.
 
21 year sentence for stealing dogs, robbery with a gun and shooting someone.

Why would anyone think that this was a better plan than getting a job?! Was he so institutionalized, that the thought of prison as a punishment was not a deterrent to criminal activity?
