CHARGES DISMISSED: Aggravated Assault
Cobb County, 2018
A young man fleeing the abusive uncle of his fiancé was falsely accused of striking and injuring the man with his car. The prosecutor demanded almost a decade in prison. Kilgore & Rodriguez demanded a jury trial wherein the truth of the false arrest was uncovered. After a week in front of a jury, the government was forced to abandon the unfair prosecution in the middle of trial and dismiss the charges altogether.
