Photograph used for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "History was made in Mustang Municipal Court when a jury returned a "not guilty" verdict on an assault-and-battery citation issued after a citizen's arrest of another resident. The verdict was unique because city officials say it was the first jury trial ever held in Mustang's municipal court. Defendant Jimmy Chambers said he requested a jury trial because police never let him tell his side of the story. His attorney, James Branum, pictured questioning prosecution witness Ellen Jones, said the accuser, David Jones, had filed a civil lawsuit and stood to profit financially if Chambers was found guilty. Chambers was cited for public intoxication and assault and battery after being placed under citizen's arrest by David Jones last April 12."
