Q: My son is being charged with felony vandillism , the DA wants to give him 4 years...it's apparently for a cut gas line
And dent in tank on a 1980S run down dirt bike .
He was at work when the police came to question him..they said 9 months prior is when this apparently happened. And the accuser didn't call police till day later. That is also when pics were take. ( Anything could have been done to bike in that amount of time) He never did this..but my son dated this guy's girlfriend after him ..which is why the guys upset!! The two saposive witnesses well that's false too .the home where this supposedly happened that guy said never happened..the girl in question said she heard it from my son..not true.
My son works 5 to 6 days a week..then home to help his grandma..he never gets in trouble..he is liked by everyone.and would give u the shirt off his back. And sense going to court he has been given 3 diff attorney s..never a meeting or even 15 mins with any of them..the 15th is priliminary hearing. Oh they r saying damage is 2200..the need expert testimony from a state mechanic..not a made up estimate.
A:
much more info is needed.
i am assuming your son has a court-appointed attorney, most likely a public defender.
i would suggest he writes out all the things that happened and what he suspects and send to the lawyer....and ask for a one on one appt.
if he can't get it, then go to his supervisor......that will shake the trees.
