Client was a visiting friend in Lynn, Massachusetts when Police were called to his location. When Police arrived they saw client, who was underage walking with alcohol. When Police approached him they stated he pulled out a shiny object out of his waistband and threw the shiny object about six feet. When Police looked over at that location they saw a loaded .22 Semi-Automatic Pistol. The Defendant was taken into custody and searched his person and located two switchblade knives as well. Client had a previous gun charge on his record that had been dismissed two years prior, which, although dismissed was not helpful to the perception of client as a gang-member. After nearly two years of hearings, investigations and motions a deal was struck that allowed Defendant to avoid jail all-together—Despite the one year Mandatory Sentence that the law requires. Client made the final decision and his decision was to take the deal. Client admits crime on mandatory jail sentence of one year—receives no jail after plea.
RESULT: Client AVOIDS Jail After Admitting to Charge that Carries a One Year Mandatory Minimum Sentence, No Jail Time or Detention and Remaining Charges Dismissed.
