After a brutal, unprovoked attack by a homeless man at a McDonald's drive-through in Boyle Heights that left 74-year-old Jose Juan Rangel battered and bruised and his wife Maria Guadalupe Vargas Luna brain-dead, the family has received yet another blow. This time, the LA County District Attorney George Gascón's office states they plan to file a motion to dismiss the most severe charge against Charles Green, a felony count, and only keep the lesser charge of misdemeanor battery.
"The DA, in my opinion, is brushing it off. They're not really seeing the big picture of what impact the injuries that my dad and my stepmother suffered," says Veronica Rangel, the elderly couple's daughter.
In an email, the Deputy District Attorney explained: "The evidence does not establish proof of an intentional act that resulted in Ms. Vargas' fall."
Rangel adds, "They said that he didn't intend to push her, that it was an accident."
In the video, you can see the defendant attacking Jose. They're on the ground, and when Vargas tries to help her husband, she is pushed by the scuffle, falls, and hits her head on the concrete.
"Whatever happened to her, they said he can't be held accountable, only for what he did to my dad. But even what he did to my dad, they want to give him a misdemeanor battery for beating up an old person," laments Rangel.

No, that wasn’t appropriate. In fact you must be a sorry excuse for a human being to make a comment like that.
Anydamnbody should be able to eat where they choose without being injured or being killed.
You should apologize for that callous remark.
When there is no justice or law…… la eMe or LKs will step up to protect a carñal.
Someone needs to pay the man for killing his blood and if you ask a Mexican mafia associate or soldier, this guy should pray he gets locked up far away. Cuz the eMe starts payback with families and ends up with the target.
It’s the cost. I can get 100% grass-fed beef, 85% lean, for $5.49/lb at Aldi.
.
Gotta keep violent crime statistics down.
The time is coming when Americans will be hiring hit men and not wasting their money on maggots with law degrees. That will be a good day.
That’s in-your-face evil. In saner times, Gascón would be prosecuted and removed for that.
If Trump had done the same crime, he would be facing the death penalty
I like the way you think.
I recommend somebody beat the living shxt of Gascon and his family and the rest of the LA County DA’s, break into their homes and rob them of $900.00 of stuff daily.
The only solution to these travesties of justice is Star Chamber justice.........
Let’s go with the “If not for ‘A’ then ‘B’” equation. “If not for” the attackers actions, “then” she wouldn’t have fell and hit her head. Therefore, he should be charged with felonious assault resulting in severe bodily harm.
What is it with McDonald’s that makes certain people go so crazy?
it’s not that they are blowing it off.
They just don’t give a f...
it doesn’t advance their agenda.
The first is expensive, rest are free.
Doesn’t elder abuse have felonious consequences?
Yeah, but you don’t get the pickle slices, onion dust, and the ketchup and mustard.
You just have the beef.
It’s about $8/lb in Oklahoma.
This is why ya don’t use a gun to protect yourself in CA. If you do the corrupt pro-criminal DA’s will destroy you and possibly put you in a cage for many years.
The victim couple, whom did they vote for?
