Dooley had been on trial in state district court for more than a week before Tuesday's verdict. Prosecutors called several witnesses, while the defense presented two, including Dooley.
"I wanna thank God, my attorneys at the Washington & Wells Law Firm, and my family for standing with me as my life was on the line," Dooley told The Shade Room. "They wanted to give me life if I was found guilty. Now I can hug my son and think about raising him to be a man. This situation drained me and affected my health greatly. God I give u all the glory. I got my life back and words can’t explain how I feel. Thanks to everyone who wished me well."
