2 ex-university players get probation in beating case

SCRANTON, Pa. (AP) — A northeastern Pennsylvania judge has denied bail for a part-time police officer charged in the shooting death of a man outside his apartment earlier this year. The (Scranton) Times-Tribune (http://bit.ly/29JFim4 ) reports that the Lackawanna County judge found Friday that prosecutors had presented sufficient evidence for a potential first-degree murder conviction. Twenty-six-year-old Carbondale officer Francis Schulze has been jailed since he was charged in March with criminal homicide and other offenses in the Feb. 2 shooting of 34-year-old Joe Molinaro of Fell Township. Defense attorney Corey Kolcharno had argued that his client should be entitled to bail because the evidence showed that he acted in self-defense. He called the ruling "a minor setback" and said he looked forward to trying to prove that Schulze was defending himself and others. ___ Information from: The Times-Tribune, http://thetimes-tribune.com/
