Immediately prior to trial in Lyon County, the prosecutor’s only plea offer was to plead guilty to First Degree Assault and serve 72 months in prison. Ryan rejected that ridiculous offer and tried the case before a jury of 12 people. Ryan’s client was found NOT GUILTY of First Degree Assault, Third Degree Assault, First Degree Burglary (Assault), but was found guilty to First Degree Burglary. Instead of having to serve 72 months in prison, Ryan’s client served less than 6 months in the local jail.
