Verdict: San Jose Suspect Innocent
San Jose Criminal Law : VIB Law Firm Verdict: Innocent
On April 29, 2008 at about 12 PM two residential burglaries took place in the City of Morgan Hill.
A witness saw 3 persons running through her backyard on the day of the incident. This witness stated that she could clearly see the face of one the burglars and noticed distinctive "buck teeth" on this burglary suspect.
Our client was identified in an "in field show up" where the police brought him handcuffed to the location of the witness who made a positive ID on the client. The witness stated she was positive due to the distinctive teeth of the burglar.
By the time our firm was hired, the client's prior attorney had negotiated a 2 year Prison sentence and was strongly pressuring the client to settle his case. We were hired and immediately investigated the matter thoroughly.
We were able to find a very strong alibi existed for the client. In fact, independent witnesses remembered him eating at a Round Table restaurant at the time in question. In fact, the manager even found a receipt with the date and time the client had been there on it.
Due to our efforts, the case was dismissed by the District Attorney's Office after the results of our investigation was turned over to them. Our client went from a 2 year Prison sentence to being set free by his decision to hire experienced San Jose Criminal Attorneys, Valencia, Ippolito and Bowman.
