BROOKHAVEN, Miss. (WJTV) � A judge issued an order on Monday dismissing
all charges against a father and son, who were accused of shooting at a
FedEx driver in Mississippi.

D�Monterrio Gibson, a former FedEx driver, said he was shot at by Brandon
and Gregory Case while delivering a package in January 2022. Gibson was
not wounded during the encounter on January 24, 2022.

The Cases were charged with attempted first-degree murder, conspiracy and shooting into the vehicle driven by Gibson, which did not have a FedEx
logo.

A mistrial was declared in August 2023 after Detective Vincent Fernando,
with the Brookhaven Police Department, left out crucial evidence during
the pretrial.

Due to numerous intentional discovery violations made by the investigator, detective Vincent Fernando, and thus the state, the defendants have been deprived of a speedy trial, intentionally denied evidence, exposed to
double jeopardy and denied due process in general.

Having conducted a hearing and having reviewed the field and all
pleadings, the court finds that the investigator in the case intentionally withheld evidence from the defense, even the District Attorney, on
numerous occasions, resulting in egregious discovery violations by the
state.

These repeated intentional errors are a clear violation of the Rules of Criminal Procedure, as well as well-established case law, justifying the dismissal of the indictment with prejudice.
