Violation: Aggravated Assault
Result: All charges dismissed
Our client was indicted for the felony offense of Aggravated Assault in the Wilson County Criminal Court. She was accused by a man who told police he was a guest in his girlfriend’s home when she pulled a knife on him, threatened him, and then slapped him. After interviewing the witness, we learned the “man” was, in fact, the boyfriend of our client. Our client was upset that he was seeing another woman. When confronted, the man advised that our client should call the woman, invite her over and get to the bottom of the issue, which our client did. The result was the invited woman admitted she was absolutely dating the man and wanted to know why he was at our client’s home. Needless to say, the man found himself in quite an uncomfortable situation. Witness confirmed he hid in a bedroom after refusing to leave our client’s home but no weapons or threats were involved. All charges were dismissed.
