A Gainesville man is seeking to reduce his sentence after a jury acquitted him of multiple assault and gang violence charges in an apartment shooting, but convicted him of having a gun in the commission of a crime. Though he was not found guilty of the crime itself, only the gun possession charge, Superior Court Judge Bonnie Oliver sentenced Brandon Goss, 21, on Oct. 8 to 60 months of incarceration. Goss is now scheduled to appear in Hall County Superior Court on March 25 for a sentence modification hearing, which was granted Jan. 8 by Oliver.
