Four men who assaulted and allegedly used anti-gay slurs at two men following last month’s Miami Pride festival face a potential maximum of 30 years in jail each.
Prosecutors have added hate-crime charges to the aggravated battery charges the four were already facing.
If found guilty, this raises the maximum jail time from 15 years to 30 years and takes the charge from second-degree to first-degree felony.
Rene Chalarca and his boyfriend, Dmitry Logunov, were walking home from Pride festivities on the second weekend in April when they say they were attacked. They were holding hands when the men confronted them.
Chalarca and Logunov suffered numerous cuts and bruises. Another man, Helmut Muller, became unconscious when he struck his head after intervening.
