Criminal case involving jeweler John Stafford dismissed

Video obtained by News Center 7 through a public records request showed a portion of an argument that happened on the fairway of the golf club. It did not actually show Stafford pulling out a gun.

The case was dismissed with prejudice, meaning the state could not bring the case to another court in the future.
