In a Hayward murder case, defense attorney Sydney Levin posits that Larry Lopez witnessed his friend Rolando Silva's suicide rather than committing the murder. Lopez is facing murder charges but argues the timing of the shooting and Silva's prior discussions of death suggest a suicide. Although Lopez lied to police about Silva's condition after the shooting, Levin claims this was a reaction to trauma rather than guilt. The case is ongoing, with a preliminary hearing scheduled soon.
Defense attorney Sydney Levin argues that Larry Lopez may have witnessed his friend Rolando Silva's suicide, not committed murder as alleged, highlighting substantial evidential support.
In their defense, Lopez's lawyer stated, 'Mr. Silva had suffered from depression and had been preparing for his own death, which could explain the circumstances around the shooting.'
