DISMISSED | AGGRAVATED ASSAULT with a KNIFE – State v. Mr. K. (Maricopa County Superior Court No. A712296CR): Ms. K. was arrested for allegedly fighting with another girl and cutting her with a butcher knife. Although this carried a prison range of 5 to 15 years in prison, we were able to negotiate a civil settlement with the alleged victim. We also told the prosecutor there were issues of self defense. The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office then dismissed all charges.
