Criminal Defense Case Results in Tarrant, TX

Charge

Sexual Assault of a Child

Location

Tarrant County, CDC2

Allegations

Police opened a case after a report that our client had sexual contact with a minor during a gathering at a residence. We obtained the discovery, including the complainant’s statement and later recorded interview, and mapped the timeline with messages the family provided. The accounts conflicted on key details and the outcry came well after the alleged event, with no corroborating physical evidence. We presented those credibility problems to the prosecutor and pushed back on the proposed prison term. The state agreed to deferred adjudication probation, keeping a conviction off the client’s record if all terms are completed.

Charge

Harassment of a Public Servant (Felony)

Location

Tarrant County, CDC3

Allegations

Officers were called to meet a flight after an in flight incident involving our client. While detained, the client became nauseous while handcuffed and vomited. An officer alleged the client intentionally spat on him, triggering a felony harassment charge. We gathered the reports, reconstructed the timeline, and centered the defense on lack of intent, showing the contact occurred during a medical episode. We pressed those issues with the prosecutor and prepared to litigate. The state dismissed the case.

Charge

Leaving the Scene of an Accident (Hit and Run)

Location

Tarrant County, None

Allegations

While driving for a delivery app at night, the client felt the car roll over an object in the road. Because traffic was heavy, they pulled over farther down to inspect the car and found no damage or blood. Passing back by later, they saw police activity in the area and worried they might be accused of leaving the scene. We were retained during the investigation, compiled the facts and monitored the case. With no evidence tying the vehicle to a collision, the matter was closed and the case was dismissed.
