ABC11 spoke with Wake County District Attorney Lorrin Freeman for the first time since last week’s major police operation in Raleigh that culminated in the capture of 23-year-old Andrew Graney , the man investigators allege shot into 12 homes and vehicles at random last week in and around Raleigh.
While Freeman declined to speak specifically about a pending case, she said Wednesday that she understood the high level of public interest surrounding Graney’s case and the lead-up to his arrest.
“We’re at the very beginning of a process,” Freeman said. “Mr. Graney is entitled to a presumption of innocence until proven guilty. We’re going to go through this court process. We’re going to be methodical and deliberate in how we go about it. And we’re going to do our best to make sure that justice is served on behalf of our community.”
Lorrin Freeman said, “We’re going to do our best to make sure that justice is served on behalf of our community.”
Freeman praised the work and collaboration of the agencies involved in the investigation and said she wanted to assure the public that her office’s top priority was protecting the community.
