Congratulations to Angus Dunlavey on another Jury Trial Win!

Our client faced charges of Assault in the Fourth Degree and Harassment arising from an alleged incident involving a family member with four broken ribs. A conviction on both counts carried the potential for nearly a year and a half of jail time. At trial, Mr. Dunlavey exposed critical inconsistencies in the prosecution's case — most notably, the complaining witness provided three different accounts of the alleged incident: two separate statements to law enforcement and yet another version on the witness stand. Through careful cross-examination and a focused presentation of the facts, Mr. Dunlavey demonstrated that the evidence simply did not meet the burden of proof required for a conviction. The jury agreed, returning a Not Guilty verdict on both charges. Our client walked out of that courtroom free.
