Atlanta Strip Clubs: Defense attorney: Charges never should have been brought in Jewell’s death

The attorney for a man accused of killing the former fiancé of one of the stars of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” is not surprised the case has been dropped.
But the charges never should have been brought at all, attorney Dennis Sheib said Tuesday.
Late Monday, Fulton District Attorney Paul Howard announced that his office would not proceed with criminal charges against Frederick Richardson. Since October, Richardson had been charged with voluntary manslaughter in the death of Ashley “A.J.” Jewell, the former fiancé of Kandi Burruss, a member of the “Real Housewives” cast.
Jewell, 36, died Oct. 2 several hours after he fought with Richardson outside a north Atlanta strip club, the Body Tap. The medical examiner said the primary cause of Jewell’s death was a rare sickle cell trait.
