People v. PW
Our Client was charged with Aggravated Unlawful Use of a Weapon by a Convicted Felon. The Illinois Department of Corrections conducted a compliance check on our Client. During the search of our Client's residence, Officers found a lockbox in a common area enclosed porch hidden under the stairs. Our Client did not have a key for the box and was unaware of the contents. Officers proceeded to break open the box. Upon opening the box, the Officers discovered a gun. Our Client then allegedly told the Officers that he knew about the gun and it was for protection. Our Client denied making the statement, and it was never written down or recorded in any manner. We took our Client's case to trial and obtained a NOT GUILTY verdict!

People v. AS
Our Client was on probation for a drug case when he picked up a Felony Delivery of a Controlled Substance - 1000 Feet of a School case. So our Client was facing a Violation of Probation and 4 - 15 years in prison if convicted on the new case. The Police alleged that our Client sold heroin to an undercover Police Officer during a controlled buy sting. The whole situation was under surveillance. Both the undercover buy officer and the surveillance officers claimed our Client sold drugs to the buy officer for $20 in marked police money. We were able to negotiate a deal with the prosecutors to reduce the charges and drop the 1000 Feet of a School element. This made the new case a Class 2 Felony which is punishable from 3 - 7 years in prison. However, this deal also made our Client eligible for Boot Camp. Our Client accepted this deal. The violation case was dropped and he will be out as soon as he completes the Boot Camp program!
