Mr. Beach’s client was accused of Felony Assault 4 (carries up to 5 years of prison), Criminal Mischief 2 (carries up to 364 days) and Harassment (carries up to 6 months). Mr. Beach’s client was involved in an incident where a vacuum broke over a pregnant woman’s body. The best offer obtained through negotiations was to receive probation but with an agreement that Mr. Beach’s client would receive 13 months of prison if he broke any rules of probation. They went to trial instead. At trial, Mr. Beach agreed to the basic facts, but the issue was whether it was an accident or on purpose. The jury agreed that it could reasonably have been an accident. Therefore, Mr. Beach’s client was found Not Guilty.
