We Can Help You Get Your Serious Criminal Charges Dismissed
Wallin & Klarich helps clients achieve dismissal of serious criminal charges. Our firm recently represented a client who was facing serious criminal charges out of Riverside county including kidnapping for rape, rape of an unconscious person, and assault with intent to commit rape. The district attorney claimed that our client had sex with his co-worker when she was unconscious after they had been drinking at a bar. Our client had consistently maintained that he and the alleged victim had consensual sex after drinking and that she was not unconscious.
At trial we were able to cross examine the district attorney’s expert witnesses to that it was unlikely there were any date rape drugs in the victim’s blood and that her level of impairment from alcohol was not consistent with being unconscious. Additionally, we presented text messages that the alleged victim sent after she was at the bar showing she was fully conscious. Our client also testified about how he and the alleged victim had consensual sex after having several drinks.
The jury acquitted our client on all of the serious felony counts including kidnapping for rape which carries a mandatory sentence of life in prison. The jurors were unable to reach a verdict on some counts. After the judge declared a mistrial we made a motion for the court to dismiss the remaining counts in the interests of justice which was granted by the judge. At the conclusion of the case all counts were dismissed and our client will have no criminal record. Because of this he is eligible to file a petition to seal the record of his arrest.
This result shows the importance of having a team of skilled criminal defense trial attorneys who are ready to challenge the district attorney and fight for your rights in court.
