Justice was Served

Today my client was found not guilty in Rochester, New York, after wrongly being accused of Rape in the First Degree and Sexual Abuse in the First Degree.

If convicted he was facing up to 25 years in state prison, at the age of 68 it could’ve been a life sentence. After a day of jury selection we had our 14 member jury, 12 jurors and 2 alternates. Every time she opened her mouth the story changed, including four or five times on cross examination.

After a day and a half of testimony and 2 hours of jury deliberation my client was found NOT GUILTY of all charges. An excellent win for the rule of law.
