In the motion, which was obtained by the news outlet, prosecutors wrote that Gonzalez, “not only put the victim’s life in danger, but he did it over a trivial slight – getting the wrong order from McDonald’s. No one should have to live in fear of being threatened with a gun while they are at their job. Nor should the community live in fear of witnessing a crime while trying to get food through a drive-thru.”
