NOT CHARGED | DUI DRUGS – State v. Mr. R. (DMC No. 6729) (DPS DR2005-067653 Code 2300): Mr. R. was a juvenile who was accused travelling 60 MPH in 45 MPH zone. He performed field sobriety tests, and the officer required Mr. R. to do a breath test, which revealed a .000 BAC. He was then forced to provide urine, under threat of going to jail if he did not do so. Because of the potential violation of his juvenile Miranda rights, no charges were brought.
NOT CHARGED | DUI – State v. Mr. T. (DMC No. 10831) (Ironwood Justice Court/DPS DR11-162936): Mr. T. was involved in a minor rear-end collision at 363rd Ave & Buckeye Road. The officer alleged that Mr. T. had appeared to have been drinking. Mr. T. indicated that he thought perhaps his drink had been “laced”. No field sobriety tests were given, and he refused to do any blood or breath tests. Ultimately, we convinced the prosecutor that they did not have enough evidence to bring charges.
NOT CHARGED | DUI; OPEN CONTAINER and CONSUMPTION WHILE DRIVING DISMISSED – State v. Mr. Z. (DMC No. 5906) (Arrowhead Justice Court/DPS DR05-003681): Mr. Z. was involved in a traffic collision on HWY 60 near mile post 146. He had an open container in his car and had admitted to drinking while driving. Because he had some injuries, no field sobriety tests were given. Because of discovery issues, we were able to convince the prosecutor to dismiss the open container and consumption while driving charges. In addition, no DUI charges were ever brought.
NOT CHARGED | DUI DRUGS (Depakote, Sapharis, Lithium, Edluar, Adderall) – State v. Ms. M. (DMC No. 10773) (West McDowell Justice Court/DPS DR2011-030389): Ms. M. was observed leaving the west bound 10 to the 7th Street off ramp when she drove up on the dirt median and then drove off. The officer stopped her and claimed she appeared intoxicated. She admitted to being on several prescription medications due to two new knee replacements in the last 6 months. The officer still attempted to give her field tests, even though she wasn’t fully healed. After we contacted the officer the State chose not to proceed with charges.
NOT CHARGED | INSURANCE FRAUD – State v. Mr. S. (DMC No. 9815): Mr. S. was involved in a nasty divorce with his wife. She had stored numerous items to be resold as antiques in her house. When she left, she filed an insurance claim stating that there was 40,000-50,000 in damage and theft. Mr. S reported her to the insurance company and informed them that he was the true insured party and was the one who suffered the actual loss. The insurance company tried to claim that this was somehow a fraudulent statement. We were able to show that the fact that he was a victim of theft (even though it was from his wife who he was divorcing) still entitled him to a lawful insurance claim.w
NOT CHARGED | Solicitation of Prostitution- State v. Mr. P. (DMC No. 9869): Mr. P was one of the individuals on the “Desert Diva” list that was released to the media. This list involved an escort service that was determined to be a prostitution ring. The police obtained all credit card numbers and information and released the names of the potential “John’s” to the public. Mr. P hired us, and we were able to prevent the State from proceeding with any further evidence that he engaged in prostitution. No charges were ever brought.

NOT CHARGED | CHILD MOLESTATION & KIDNAPPING – State v. Mr. B. (DMC No.7243) (Maricopa County Superior Court No. CR 2006-XXXXXX): Mr. B. was a teacher at a local elementary school and was accused by a student of fondling her breast over her clothes. We had Mr. B. take a polygraph test, which he passed. In addition, there were no other witnesses to corroborate these allegations. The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office still insisted on proceeding to Grand Jury, however there was no indictment returned. The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office then made a Motion to the Court to release the findings of the Grand Jury (which is necessary in order to discuss Grand Jury findings), and that Motion was granted. Even though Mr. B. was not indicted, he was still forced to resign his position. He was initially facing years in prison, but ended up with no charges being filed.
NOT CHARGED | CHILD MOLESTATION – State v. Mr. W. (DMC No.7266) (Pinal County Sheriff’s Office): Mr. W. was a teacher for Special Education students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. He was accused of improperly touching a student, and was put on Administrative Leave. We were able to show that the actual incident involved a 12-year old student who kept falling asleep in class. When Mr. W. went up to her and rubbed her back in order to wake her (with 30 other students in the room), she woke up and claimed that her bra strap had become undone. She then retracted some other allegations she had made against Mr. W. and no charges were brought against him. In addition, he had no adverse record placed on his teaching license. Lastly, he then transferred to teach at a local high school and was paid for all of the time he had been placed on Administrative Leave.
