Attorney: Tulsa volunteer deputy charged in fatal shooting cancels Bahamas trip after scrutiny

TULSA, Okla. - A former Tulsa County volunteer deputy charged with fatally shooting a restrained man has canceled his Bahamas vacation after “he was ridiculed in the national press.”

Attorney Corbin Brewster told the Associated Press Tuesday that 73-year-old Robert Bates canceled the June trip because of media “scrutiny and pressure.”

Brewster says Bates had been looking forward to the vacation with his grandchildren, which was planned before the April 2 shooting. He says Bates changed his plans in recent days.
