The state dismissed a Mesa resident's manslaughter case for a choking death. The case was dismissed without prejudice.
An Arizona court commissioner dismissed the case of a Mesa man who was charged with manslaughter after he was accused of choking another man to death last month., a Class 2 felony — the second most serious offense — after the death of Randall Black, 41. On Jan. 24, the two had a physical altercation at Miles Motel at 5911 E. Main St. in Mesa, according to court documents.
Glasby said he was acting in self-defense after Black confronted him, pulled out a gun and accused him of having sex with his girlfriend, court documents show. However, Black was later found to be unarmed, according to the documents. Most of the incident was captured by video surveillance cameras. Black is seen initiating the fight by punching Glasby outside his motel room, according to court documents. In response, Glasby is seen throwing something back at him. Glasby later admitted to police that he threw a soda can at the victim.
