Client was an all-around solid guy who was charged with a variety of offenses. According to Police, they were responding to a report of domestic violence. Once they arrived, they saw a situation that involved client, but client had already left the area. While police were at the location, client drove by police in a manner they say was excessive. They suggested that the operation of the motor vehicle in proximity to the police who were in the road was an assault with a dangerous weapon. Police followed and stopped client and determined that he was under the influence of alcohol and charged him with the offenses. They held him on a dangerousness hearing. After many months they hired Attorney Barabino and after much preparation advocated for his release. That advocating triggered an offer of a plea that was worthy of acceptance and client was released from custody. The assault on police charge was continued without a finding and the others were dismissed. The domestic violence charge was generally continued, the 2nd offense OUI charge was reduced to 1st offense and the speeding was a civil infraction of not responsible.
Result: 58A Release, Case Resolved
