State v. Mr. H (DMC No. 18021)

State v. Mr. H (DMC No. 18021) – Felony Child Sex Trafficking, and Felony Sexual Conduct with a Minor – Reduced to Attempt and Probation (with 28 Days in Jail) – Maricopa County Superior Court (Case No. CR2022-138774)

Mr. H was on a website called Escort Alligator, where he saw an advertisement from “Ashley” who claimed she was 18 and looking for people to respond. He sent her a text stating “Hey there, I’m down for car fun.” She said “I want to let you know that I’m 16, some guys aren’t cool with that. I’m just letting you know so you don’t think I tricked you. You good?” Mr. H responded, “You’re not a Cop or Law, just making sure,” and she said “I am still interested.” It turned out the person he was speaking with was an Undercover Officer with the Phoenix Police Department who was conducting a Sting Operation.

Mr. H agreed to meet the alleged prostitute at Arizona Mills, and agreed to pay $100 and texted that she could “try giving him a blow job or sex.” When Mr. H arrived at Arizona Mills, he was immediately Arrested by Police Officers. At that time he had no cash on him, and had a movie prop fake $100 bill in his console. He told the Police he was only there to make sure that “Ashley” was not “being Sex Trafficked and was not there against her will.” He stated that if she was there against her will, he would have called the authorities. He also pointed out that his $100 bill was clearly a fake movie prop. He was then Arrested and Charged with Felony Child Sex Trafficking and Felony Sexual Conduct with a Minor. It was at this time he secured the services of DM Cantor to Represent him.

At the Initial Appearance, we were able to show there was No Probable Cause for the Felony Sexual Conduct with a Minor allegation, and that Charge was Dropped. However, he was still facing potentially two Decades in Prison for the Child Sex Trafficking Charge.

We were able to meet with the Prosecutors and show that Mr. H had a history of mental illness and PTSD. This occurred because he, himself, was molested as a child. We were able to show then that he was truly trying to “help a victim get out of that situation.” Although the Prosecutors would not Dismiss the Charge, they ultimately offered a Reduced Plea of Attempt and Probation (with Only 28 Days in Jail). If Mr. H had gone to Jury Trial and lost, he could have received up to 21 years in Prison. Once he completes Probation, he will become a free man without any encumbrances.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I worked with Nick Boca and Robyn McCraw. I felt I was in the best of hands from the beginning. They were clear and upfront at all times with their communication and instruction. Any divorce is a difficult time, and Nick and Robyn understand that. Their compassion for my situation and professionalism in how they handled my case stood out the most. I would highly recommend their services to anyone going through a difficult divorce.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cantor Law Group came as a recommendation from a family friend, and I am so grateful that this led me to speak with Nicholas Boca. Nik represented me in a complicated divorce which detailed a substantial claim of waste that spanned my 25-year marriage. He was very straightforward and honest and worked purposefully on my behalf at all times. He was empathetic to my situation and found ways to navigate difficult challenges unique to my case. Perhaps most importantly, he understood the importance of bringing closure to my situation and did his best to avoid unnecessary legal expenses. His methods to find resolution required wisdom and experienced practice of law.

My heartfelt gratitude also extends to Robyn and Amanda. This was a team effort. Amanda’s knowledge of law, Robyn’s organizational skills and instinctive nature were invaluable. My “team” at Cantor Law Group cared. My case mattered, I mattered, my family mattered.  From the front desk to the billing department, everyone handled my inquiries and needs without delay. Each person I interacted with seemed to know me personally and I felt reassured they were all working together to achieve the best possible outcome.

Cantor Law Group has an excellent reputation amongst the experts. It was extremely reassuring knowing that the work ethic and professionalism of Cantor Law Group is respected by both the experts and the court.

I would HIGHLY recommend Cantor Law group.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. All the attorneys are exceptional and they all work collaboratively on your case. While I worked closely with David, the other attorney's where always up to date and provided unparalleled guidance. Bottom line, they are a cut above and they deliver. You get what you pay for. If it matters, talk to DM Cantor.
