Our client’s turbulent relationship with the mother of his child ended in serious allegations across two jurisdictions. Even though the alleged victim recanted, Jefferson County pressed its prosecution all the way to trial. And lost.
He was accused of forcing the alleged victim into his vehicle. In one county, he was accused of strangulation. In Jefferson County, he was accused of kidnapping and harassment.
The alleged victim eventually admitted that the strangulation never happened and that the vehicle incident was exaggerated. While one jurisdiction dismissed its case before trial, prosecutors in Jefferson County pressed forward without the alleged victim’s testimony. They claimed that our client had intimidated her into silence and relied instead on bystanders who claimed to have seen the interaction from a distance.
Krizman Law exposed the inconsistencies in those accounts and demonstrated the absence of any proof. The jury returned a not guilty verdict on all counts.
Before trial, we successfully argued to reduce his $10,000 cash bond to a personal recognizance bond. With the money back in his account, he could focus on his defense.
This case shows that Krizman Law is unafraid to take matters all the way to trial if that’s what it takes to achieve a just outcome for our clients.
