Description: Mobile, Alabama criminal law lawyer represented Defendant charged with felony possession of a firearm.

George Lee Thompson, 35, was arrested by Mobile police officers on June 9, 2021, after a 911 caller reported seeing him waving a gun around near a gas station on Government Boulevard.
