They were informed in 2010 shortly after the incident happened that the CR had a warrant out for Randy, and they essentially ignored it and didn't tell Randy.

People are always at fault for other peoples mistakes. I'm a licensed electrician. If I have an apprentice and I tell him "do not touch that wire. It is live. It will kill you" and he decides to go up a ladder and touch it anyway while I go to turn it off it's still my fault if he gets hurt. The rationalization is that the apprentice shouldn't be left anywhere near an exposed wire. Somewhat the same as Randy's case, but just an example of how there's always someone to blame for someone else's actions.

And while I completely believe you that this is true, it is still ridiculous.

I'd be pretty pissed if I were Randy too. After what happened in CT, the very least people could do is show some respect. Sadly though, any crowd will always have the few idiots who don't care, so this isn't really surprising to hear.

That pisses me off too, but you also have to remember that quite a bit of the audience was probably pretty drunk by the time Randy did that so ya, it doesn't surprise me either.

Randy is overreacting just a little I was at that show about 99% of the people were silent some even took out their lighters

there were only a few people that were screaming and yes probably drunk

The trial is expected to last until the end of the week. Tomorrow the court will hear from 12 witnesses who attended the concert.

At least it won't be months and months to hear a verdict. Hopefully it all goes smoothly for Randy.
