A Joliet man has pleaded guilty to aggravated battery of a bouncer who was wounded in a 2020 shooting and prosecutors say the man is being held accountable for the actions of another person. On March 3, Bryson Carter, 28, of Joliet, pleaded guilty to an amended charge of aggravated battery in the Dec. 13, 2020 incident. The charge said Carter – or one whose actions he is legally accountable for – had caused harm to a private security officer in retaliation for performing his official duties. Carter was 'accountable for the actions of another individual who struck and caused great bodily harm to the victim,' according to an official statement of facts signed March 3 by a prosecutor.
