These filings do not include cases where victims were threatened with what appeared to be — but was ultimately not established to be — firearms (for example robbery or felony harassment where the suspect/defendant/respondent threatened a victim with what the victim believed to be a firearm) and these cases do not include incidences that are still pending investigation. These cases vary in complexity and include cases in which our prosecutors worked closely with detectives during the investigation.
