Child abuse charges dismissed
Posted by jefhenninger on February 2, 2010
My client was charged with assaulting his child to the point where she was a bloody mess when the police arrived. The problem in New Jersey is that there is no clear line between corporal punishment and child abuse. So, I argued that this was nothing more than corporal punishment that took a wrong turn. This case took a few months to work out, but in the end, my client had all charges dismissed. He didn’t even have to pay court costs. It was a great result for a very nice client.
