People v. JR
Our Client was charged with Vehicular Invasion, Robbery, Aggravated Battery and Unlawful Restraint. If convicted, he faced up to 15 years in prison. The Police alleged that our Client took a ride in a taxi. Once he reached his destination, instead of paying, our Client allegedly robbed the taxi driver. The entire incident was recorded on the taxi's internal camera. Through negotiation, we were able to convince the prosecution to offer the minimum of 4 years in prison. We were not able to negotiate probation for our Client because he had a violent background with several prior felony cases including theft, residential burglaries and robberies. However, we were able to have a conference with the Judge ,and were able to convince her to offer our Client Boot Camp. The Boot Camp program is only 120 days and a far better option than 4 years in prison.
