Cecil Copeland Cleared In Simple Battery Trial
A jury acquitted Cecil Copeland 34, pool manager at Wetmore Road, of simple battery against Russell Russell, 21. Copeland testified he acted as pool manager and deputy sheriff, showing a sheriff’s card before swinging the bat to deter trouble. Evidence showed Copeland struck Russell at least once, with witnesses for both sides admitting a swing. Prosecutors and defense agreed Copeland used a bat but defense claimed self defense and duty to deter a disturbance.
