How To Beat A Sex Crime Charge In California
The answer to this is to have a defense, and there's no one-size-fits-all defense in al sex crime cases in Los Angeles, California. It will spin and be evaluated by the particular facts in your case.
What happened? Do they have evidence to show that you did whatever it is someone is claiming that you did? People can make allegations all they want, but if there's no evidence to back it up and if the person has the motive to lie and get you in trouble, then obviously, that starts to be the formation of a defense in a sex crime case and potentially could be a defense that could beat the case.
Review of the Specific Details
Step one is to sit down with an attorney and give all the information you know. I don't like it when people come in and start to spin the case right from the beginning, as though somehow I have to be convinced of their innocence.
It's crucial to provide accurate information when discussing your case. Please refrain from adding a spin or lying about the facts. I will approach your case from the perspective of the police and the prosecutors. Understanding their viewpoint is crucial in shaping a defense strategy based on the facts from your perspective.
Sometimes, the truth lies in the middle. Sometimes, the prosecutors and police have the whole thing all wrong. Other times, they've got it right. So, I try to look at things at least neutrally in the beginning so we can start to shape a defense because part of our defense is going to have to take into consideration what the prosecutors are going to argue against you — what evidence they have against you — and what the weaknesses might be in our case.
So, we can't just say the same thing every single time — oh, we're going to win the case, and that's it. We've got to look at what type of a case the prosecutors have against you and what evidence they will use to try to prove the case, and then we can start to mount a defense. Then, we can begin discussing what you can do to achieve a successful result.
Review of Available Legal Options
Sometimes, that successful result will relate to getting a not-guilty verdict before a jury. Other times, it will relate to showing the evidence that helps you and convincing the prosecutors to dismiss the case or give you some lesser charge. Yet, other times, it will involve us trying to negotiate a successful plea bargain because the prosecutors have the evidence against you.
Trying to say what that will be without having all the information is complex and is reckless. That's why when you call somebody on the phone and they start telling you how you will win the case before they've seen or heard any of the evidence, you have to scratch your head and say, wait a minute. Is this person just trying to sell me? Or are they talking from knowledge and a good feel for the facts and circumstances of my case?
Developing a Defense Strategy
Successfully defending a sex crime case in Los Angeles requires a comprehensive approach. We must lay out all the puzzle pieces, evaluate them, and then decide on the best strategy. Are we aiming to beat the case or considering a different approach? Perhaps we're looking to mitigate the situation? This comprehensive approach will ensure that we are well-prepared and secure in our defense strategy.
Are we going to get character letters? Will we get letters from your job, family, or friends? That's one of the first things you must do because any time you journey in the criminal defense community, it's difficult. You're dealing with prosecutors, judges, and law enforcement trying to take you out.
A solid plan is essential when embarking on the journey of criminal defense. You'll want to have a map that guides you through the complexities of the legal system and helps you achieve a successful outcome.
Once you get that plan in place, now you can start thinking about what you're going to do to beat your sex crime case either or at least mitigate it down to keep yourself out of jail/prison or try to avoid some of the bad things that come along with a sex crime conviction in Los Angeles or anywhere in California or even the nation.
