reviewed video of a YouTube prankster playing a joke on a man who then shot him at the Dulles Town Center mall, and could not rule out charging the prankster with a crime — drawing a rebuke from the shooting victim’s father.said it showed “partiality in the law” and “mob rule” that Loudoun County Commonwealth’s Attorney Buta Biberaj would even consider a case against his son.
But she said that, as a separate matter, she could not rule out prosecuting the shooting victim if evidence were to show that Cook threatened or touched Colie. Asked whether she had any such evidence, Biberaj said “the collection of evidence continues.” A Loudoun County assistant prosecutor, Anthony Needham, responded in court that Colie should be denied bond because he opened fire in a mall against unarmed people, before adding: “We also are looking at charging the victims of this matter,” Biberaj said.
“You don’t know the recipient of this type of prank, where they are, or what their trauma might be — they may receive it as being a threat,” Biberaj said.Three other men were in the mall with Cook, Biberaj said. Cook’s relatives have said his fellow YouTubers were recording video for their channel, “Classified Goons,” which has more than 40,000 followers.
