Controversial streamer Clavicular in court today on charges stemming from a live stream in the Everglades.
2
He was caught on camera shooting at an alligator that already appeared to be dead.
3
Local tenants, Trent Kelly, live in Miami with more of what happened in court.
4
Trent.
5
That viral video sparking outrage online,
6
and now as a result,
7
these two popular South Florida streamers are now accepting plea deals in this case.
8
Let's take you to some video from earlier this morning.
9
social media streamer Brayden Peters,
10
known online as Clavicular,
11
walking into a Miami-Dade courtroom earlier today before taking a plea deal in a case connected to that viral Everglades gun video.
12
Peters, along with co-defendant Andrew Morales,
13
also known online as Cuban Tarzan,
14
both pleaded no contest today to a misdemeanor charge of unlawfully discharging a firearm in public.
15
Now this charge stems from a March 26th live stream
16
which showed Peters firing multiple rounds from an airboat into the
17
water at what appeared to be a dead alligator inside the Francis Taylor Everglades Wildlife Management Area.
18
Investigators later opening a criminal case after the video went viral online,
19
generating a lot of outrage among wildlife conservationists.
20
While today's hearing in court was relatively short,
21
both Peters and Morales briefly addressed the judge while going over the terms of this plea deal.
22
Take a listen.
23
Please state your name and date of birth for the record.
24
Regent Peters, 12-17-2005.
25
Are you under the influence of anything right now?
26
No, you're not.
27
Have you spoken to your attorney about this case?
28
No. Are you satisfied with the representation that Mr. Nyman has provided to you?
29
Yes, ma'am.
30
Okay, you were charged with one count of an awful discharge of a firearm.
31
I understand will be entering a plea of no contest to that charge on the conditions laid out on the record.
32
Is that correct?
33
That's correct.
34
Now, under this deal, both men must now complete 20 hours of community service and a firearm and FWC wildlife safety course.
35
Their community service also cannot be streamed or monetized online.
36
If they violate the terms of their plea deal,
37
The judge said today they could face up to a year in jail.
38
Now, while neither defendant had any comment following the conclusion of this morning's hearing,
39
the attorney for Peters did send Local 10 a statement saying in part,
40
quote, my client has accepted responsibility for his conduct and reached a resolution that appropriately reflects the circumstances of this incident.
41
No individual was injured and the alligator involved was already deceased prior to the events at issue.
42
For now, that is the latest live this afternoon from the courthouse in Miami.
43
I'm Trent Kelly, Local 10 News.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
