Championing Justice in Armed Robbery Defense

Case Outcome

When John Doe faced charges of armed robbery for allegedly robbing his barber at gunpoint, Veronica White of White & Associates (WAA) took on his defense with unyielding determination. The charges, initially severe, were reduced to larceny over, remaining in the Dorchester District Court due to the Commonwealth's lack of readiness at the probable cause hearing.

White & Associates skillfully exploited Commonwealth weaknesses, filing aggressive motions to exclude key identification evidence due to non-compliance with court orders by the prosecution. Such strategic legal maneuvers paid off when the case was declared nolle prossed, ceasing prosecution.

Not Guilty on Armed Assault with Intent to Murder

John Doe was indicted for the crime of Armed Assault with Intent to Murder. This crime was recorded on surveillance footage and took place in front of Gigi Liquors in Dorchester, Massachusetts. Mr. Doe faced up to 20 years in state prison. Attorney Veronica J White mounted a vigorous defense of Mr. Doe which ultimately resulted in a trial at Suffolk Superior Court. Attorney White exposed the District Attorney's case against Mr. Doe to be highly circumstantial and plagued by suggestive identification procedures. Attorney White forcefully cross examined the Commonwealth's material witness destroying her credibility and rendering her supposed identification of Mr. Doe worthless. Attorney White then further exposed the District Attorney's case by calling expert witness Dr. Ayanna Thomas to testify on her client's behalf. Fingerprint expert Richard Shire was able to demonstrate that were Mr. Doe guilty of this crime that his fingerprints should have been found at the crime scene. After deliberating for a few hours, the jury acquitted Mr. Doe of all charges. John Doe was discharged from this indictment. About White & Associates, P. C.
