Client's Sex Charges involving 9 year old girl dismissed
June 20, 2009
Topic: Criminal
We defended the client from criminal sexual battery charges supposedly committed lewd acts against his 9 year old step-daughter. Our client was in his mid-40s with no prior record. The client faced not only a lengthy prison sentence, but the loss of his job, reputation in the community, and likely press coverage that comes from these types of charges. The former spouse made up the charges and coached the daughter what to say to the police. Through our proactive investigations, we were able to get the charges not filed against the client.
A charge of sexual battery or lewd conduct on a child cannot be remvoed from your record even if the charges are dropped! We aggressively defended the case and the client avoided the prosecution. If you believe that false allegations have been reported to DCF or to the police, call us immediately! We can help.
