REDUCED | 3 COUNTS of AGGRAVATED ASSAULT/1 COUNT of CRIMINAL DAMAGE and 1 COUNT DISORDERLY CONDUCT (dangerous) REDUCED to class 6 open/Misdemeanor with PROBATION and ZERO DAYS in JAIL – State v. Ms. H. (DMC No. 6046) (Maricopa County Superior Court CR2005-136932): Ms. H. had become involved in an argument with her boyfriend, when she left and went to a bar to drink. When she came back, she was speeding through the neighborhood and sped into the driveway and smashed into the back of her boyfriend’s car. He was present and had to run into the garage to avoid being struck. When police arrived, Ms. H. fought with 3 officers while being taken into custody. We were able to show through mitigation that Ms. H. had an alcohol issue, and that her boyfriend did not wish to be a “victim”. The Prosecutor extended a probation offer, and then we convinced the Judge to impose zero days in jail. The case was later moved to a misdemeanor at the completion of probation. Ms. H. has no felony on her record.
