Best Chicago Criminal Defense Lawyer Michael Leonard defends the Home Alone Parents on WGN’s “Let’s Get Legal.” Trials are usually deadly serious matters. However, Michael Leonard of Leonard Trial Lawyers takes on the “mock” defense of Kate and Peter McAllister from the movie “Home Alone” on Jon Hansen’s popular legal show, along with “prosecutor” Patrick Dolan of the firm of Conti & Dolan.
For those of you who never saw the movie, “Home Alone,” the McAllisters are a large family who live in a beautiful house in the Chicago suburbs. In the chaos surrounding their departure for a holiday trip to Paris, they mistakenly leave their 8-year-old son, Kevin, behind. Kevin is played by young McCauley Caulkin. Kevin is forced to fend for himself and fight off the “web bandits,” played by Joe Pesci and and Daniel Stern, as his mom races across the globe to make it back home to him. She even hitches a ride with a polka band and its leader, Gus Polinski (played by the late great John Candy).
On December 14, 2024, Jon Hansen (as Judge), Patrick Dolan (as Prosecutor), and Michael Leonard (as Defense Attorney) hold the trial of Mr. and Mrs. McAllister on child endangerment and abandonment charges. Tune it at the link below and find out if it is a holiday guilty or not guilty for the McAllisters. This one generated a lot of call-ins and text-ins.
