Congratulations to Tyler Beach on a Presumptive Prison Car Theft and Possession of Weapon Trial Win!

Mr. Beach’s client was accused of Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle (driving a stolen car) and Unlawful Possession of a Weapon. If convicted, Mr. Beach’s client was facing up to ten years of prison and was expected to get a prison sentence if convicted. At trial, the prosecutor was able to prove that Mr. Beach’s client was in a car and that car was listed as stolen but - as Mr. Beach pointed out - the prosecutor didn’t prove who actually owned the car - maybe it was actually Mr. Beach’s client?. And, the prosecutor failed to get any testimony or other evidence about a weapon being found on Mr. Beach’s client successfully admitted through the evidence rules. Accordingly, at the end of the prosecutor’s submission of evidence, the judge granted Mr. Beach’s motion for a Judgement of Acquittal on both charges!
