Sheffield and Peters Obtain Dismissal in Child Molestation Case
Following Defense Counsel’s intensive review of the facts of the case, which centered on prior false allegations amidst a divorce and custody battle over the child, and working with child abuse experts, Defense Counsel convinced the District Attorney’s Office that the child’s behavior was not consistent with being abused and that the child had been improperly influenced by the mother to make false allegations against the father. The District Attorney’s Office dismissed all charges just before trial.
