Hi my boyfriend was tazed and charged with a felony for resisting arrest. But then the cops came and said they needed the names of everyone that seen them taze him. Because he didnt resist until they pulled the tazer on him then he got scared. Now they upped his charge to a felony. Pls advise..Sincerely Melissa V

Answer

After 28 years in criminal law, I have seen more police brutality in Mohave, than in most other areas, and, due to that, more motions to suppress have been won there. You need to get a good criminal defense firm for your boyfriend, so that he can fight the charges. I wish you and your boyfriend the best..... David Wallin
