People v. PB
Our Client was charged with Felony Aggravated Battery to a Police Officer. It was alleged that police were driving to a domestic violence call, and our Client's vehicle was blocking the street. The police car had its lights on, and the police were on the speaker directing our Client to move. Instead of moving, our Client placed her car in park, exited her vehicle and charged the police with clenched fists saying "Bitch, can't you see I'm doing something, I a'int fucking moving." Even when the police informed our Client that they were responding to a domestic battery victim, she replied "I don't give a fuck!" and refused to move. The Police asked for our Client's driver's license and insurance, and our Client was not able to produce either. The Police attempted to arrest our Client, and our Client resisted by balling up her fists again, pulling away and saying "Bitch, you wanna see who's bad?" Our Client then began throwing elbows and striking the Officer. Our Client also scratched the Officer. There were pictures of the Officer's injuries. Our Client was facing up to 7 years in prison for this incident. We were able to negotiate a deal on a reduced charged of Resisting Arrest. Instead of prison, our Client will be on probation for the next 2 years. If she successfully completes the probation, she will be able to avoid prison all together and will eventually be eligible to have this arrest sealed.
