Other Acts Evidence In The Last Act

Recently, I had a client who went to trial on Attempted Sexual Assault, Kidnapping and Felony Battery charges. On the Thursday before the trial was set to begin, the government (state prosecutor) attempted to introduce "other acts evidence" against my client. It is an area that is very problematic for people accused of crimes. Prosecutors get to attempt to introduce evidence regarding other bad acts that a defendant has allegedly done under the legal theory that it goes to intent or motive. The reality is that it shows a jury that he did something before, so he must have done it again.

Lawyer For A Lawyer

I've been hired as a consultant in an OWI case in Rock County. The client had heard good things, and his lawyer was open to the idea of me consulting on the case. I believe we may have found a good issue regarding the PBT (Preliminary Breath Test) which could lead to the suppression of evidence.
