Hearing In Criminal Case Against Ludwig Kaiser Canceled
Ludwig Kaiser (Marcel Barthel) was scheduled for a hearing in his criminal case on Thursday in Orlando, FL, but the hearing was canceled. No reason was given.
There is still a hearing scheduled for Monday, October 19, regarding Kaiser’s motion to dismiss. In that motion, Barthel argued that he was immune from prosecution under Florida’s Stand Your Ground law.
On June 16, the defense filed a motion to gain access to surveillance video from the alleged battery incident involving Kaiser. This motion, unopposed by the state, asked the court to authorize a subpoena for the footage.
On June 25, Judge Andrew Cameron of Orange County, Florida, ruled on the matter and ordered the subpoena to be issued.
Ludwig Kaiser was arrested in May on a battery charge stemming from an incident in April where he allegedly punched a man in an elevator.
Kaiser, who portrays El Grande Americano in AAA, has continued to wrestle for WWE, notably competing in the mask vs. mask match against Chad Gable.
