Da'Shaun Taylor Press Release

Timothy Da'Shaun Taylor was charged in state court in 2011 for his involvement in an armed robbery of a McDonald's restaurant. He cooperated with authorities, pled guilty, and completed his probation sentence. In 2016, the federal government charged him again for conspiracy related to the same robbery. Taylor states that he had no involvement in the Brittanee Drexel case and knows nothing about why another individual named him. His lawyers argue that it is unfair for him to be prosecuted twice for the same crime when he already served time, and that the subsequent federal prosecution does not meet the legal standards required.

SUSPECT IN DREXEL INVESTIGATION


TIMOTHY DASHAUN TAYLOR SPEAKS OUT
The Squeeze is On

Charleston, SC, August 31, 2016 - - On September 3, 2011, our client was charged, arrested, and
prosecuted in state court for his involvement in a robbery of a local McDonalds. He cooperated
with local authorities, admitted his involvement, and plead guilty to Strong Armed Robbery on
July 29, 2013. He successfully completed his probationary sentence.
On June 21, 2016, the Federal government filed an Indictment charging our client with Conspiracy
to Commit Armed Robbery for this same exact robbery. We hope this statement is sufficient
enough to allow him to move through this subsequent prosecution in a private manner.
I had no involvement with anything to do with Brittanee Drexel. I dont know
Taquan Brown and I dont know why he would call my name. I am being
prosecuted again for a crime I already helped them solve and already did my time
for, all because some guy in prison is trying to cut a deal. Its not fair to be charged
for the same crime twice and thats not how our system is supposed to work.
The United States Congress has expressly provided that a state judgment of conviction, including
one resulting from a plea agreement, shall be a bar to any subsequent federal prosecution for the
same act or acts. Any attempt to do so must be approved by the appropriate Assistant Attorney
General of the United States, and further, approval can only be granted upon the satisfaction of
three substantive prerequisites, none of which are applicable to the instant case. This subsequent
prosecution is nothing more than an attempt to squeeze Mr. Taylor for information of which he
has no knowledge.
