Charges

Three Counts of Indecent Liberties with Children, NCGS 14-202.1.

Facing

Facing 59 months in prison for each count of Indecent Liberties with a Minor; sex offender registration for 30 years.

Description

State vs. 'Confidential Client' - Attorney Patrick Roberts successfully defended a military serviceman accused of inappropriately touching his minor daughter. As a seasoned child molestation defense lawyer, Mr. Roberts gathered various statements from the alleged victim, highlighting their inconsistency and inconclusiveness. His efforts led the district attorney's office to offer a plea for misdemeanor assault, sparing his client a felony conviction, prison time, and the need for sex offender registration. Remarkably, Mr. Roberts also managed to persuade the court at sentencing to allow his client to start reunification efforts with his daughter, who was also his accuser.

Result

Misdemeanor Probation.

The client received misdemeanor probation, was not required to register as a sex offender, and was permitted to begin reunification with his family.
