State v. Mr. H (DMC No. 7155)

REDUCED | Child Pornography, State v. Mr. H. (DMC No. 7155) (Maricopa County Superior Court No. JV-544956): REDUCED to Probation – Mr. H. was a 17 year old male who was utilizing a file sharing software “Limewire.” While downloading music and videos, he came across what appeared to be child pornography. Due to his youth and inexperience, he downloaded these images. He thought they were “gross” and would use them to “freak out” his friends. The FBI traced the images to his computer and executed a search warrant. His mother brought him down for questioning and let him speak to police. This resulted with him being charged with Child Pornography. We were able to keep the case in the juvenile system, as opposed to being transferred to the adult system where Mr. H. would have faced 10 years in prison, per video. Ultimately, the case was resolved with probation until his 18th birthday, 60 days of deferred jail, and various counseling. When he successfully completed his counseling and probation, the jail was deleted and he did not have to register as a sex offender. He now has nothing showing on his adult record.

State v. Mr. D (DMC No. 7195)

DISMISSED | Criminal Damage, State v. Mr. D. (DMC No. 7195) (Mesa Municipal Court No. 2006-0055734): Mr. D. had been drinking with friends when he came across a hole that City workers had dug in order to repair a pipe. He was then seen taking a brick and smashing the pipe, causing a water leak. Police were called and he was charged with Criminal Damage. The witness was a two-time convicted felon living at a halfway house across the street. We were able to convince the prosecutors that they had an identification problem, and that a Diversion program allowing Mr. D. to earn a dismissal would be more appropriate. Ultimately, all charges were dismissed.

State v. Mr. B (DMC No.7288)

REDUCED | Sale of 5 Pounds of Marijuana, State v. Mr. B. (DMC No.7288) (Maricopa County Superior Court No. CR 2007-106013): Mr. B. was observed pulling up to an apartment complex and removing a duffle bag containing 5 pounds of marijuana from his car. Police were conducting surveillance on this area based on a tip by an informant. Mr. B. admitted that he was delivering the marijuana for a friend from California. Because the weight was more than 2 pounds, Mr. B. was facing a potential of over a decade in prison. Through pointing out various issues with the search and problems with the questioning in violation of Mr. B.’s rights, we were able to secure a deal for 2 years of probation with zero days in jail. In addition, he was allowed to transfer his probation to California (where he lived).

We were able to convince the prosecutors to keep the case in Juvenile Court, rather than routing it do adult court, where Mr. A. would have potentially faced years in prison. We were able to show that because of his youth and immaturity, this case should be dismissed in its entirety. In exchange for a 3 page essay to be given to the judge, we were able to have all charges dismissed.
