Although it looks like that no one else will be charged," a grand jury applied the law to the facts of the case" according to DA Robert Morganthau, and indicted Plaxico Burress. Burress was at a nightclub called the Latin Quarter on Nov.29th of 2008 when a gun he had tucked into his pants slipped down and accidentally fired hitting him in the thigh.
The gun was not licensed and no one including Burress or his friend Pierce called police to report the incident as required by law. The 31 yr. old Burress faces 3 1/2 yrs. in prison. He pleaded not guilty to weapons charges earlier this year and was released on $100,000 bail. Both Burress and Pierce testified last week before the grand jury and he did state to reporters that he is truly sorry for his actions.
Burress was a member of the New York Giants Superbowl team in 2008, catching the winning touchdown in the final minute of the game to seal the win over the New England Patriots.
