People v. CP
Our Client was charged with Felony Possession of a Controlled Substance. The Police claimed that they pulled our Client over for having a cracked tail light and not wearing a seat belt.

People v. DH
Our Client was charged with Felony Aggravated Unlawful Use of a Weapon in a School. It was alleged that our client participated in a plan to bring a loaded gun into a Chicago Public High School. A fire alarm was pulled which allowed our Client to leave the building and return with a loaded handgun. Because of the amount of people returning into the building, no one was required to pass thru the metal detector. Our Client allegedly told another student that he had brought a gun into the building. This student notified school personnelle who detained our Client. The police were called and a search of our Client revealed that he did indeed have a loaded gun in his possession. We tried to Suppress the gun, but the Judge denied our Motion. However, we were able to work out a deal for time considered served. Our Client dressed in and out!

People v. EM
Our Client was charged with Felony Possession of a Controlled Substance. Officers alleged that they stopped our Client for driving the wrong way down a one-way street. The testifying officer claimed to have seen our Client reach into his pocket and stuff a golf ball size bag of narcotics into his mouth and begin to chew and swallow it. The testifying officer stated that he grabbed our Client at which point the bag exploded and several small bags flew out of our Client's mouth into the passenger compartment of the car. The problem with the officer's testimony was that he said he saw our Client pull this golf ball sized item out of his pocket while our Client was seated in the driver's seat of a Hummer and the Officer, who admitted to being only 5'3" stood outside. At 5'3", there is no way for the officer to make the observation he claimed to have made because of the size of the vehicle. All charged were dismissed at the Preliminary Hearing.
