Houston Criminal Defense ATtorney

When a driver is suspected of driving while intoxicated, details surrounding their stop and arrest are essential to their defense. When a driver is accused of drunk driving and the there is a purported witness to this activity, additional facts and evidence will be needed in the defense.

Near Houston, a former pro-golfer almost injured or killed in his attempt to stop a suspected drunk driver. The man leaped out of his vehicle that was traveling southbound on Highway 360 near Ragland Road. He jumped head first into the driver's side window of a moving truck because he believed that the driver, who allegedly was on the wrong side of the road, was asleep at the wheel and drunk.

When accusations of any alleged sex crimes are made, the defendant requires a serious defense. When those crimes include a charge of alleged indecency by contact with a female student at a school, the defendant requires an especially aggressive defense.

The defendant in a recent case worked at a Houston middle school where the alleged incident took place. The 28-year-old guard was arrested for allegedly inappropriately touching a student. This was allegedly one sex crime charge to go along with other alleged complaints that had been brought against the guard in the past. The man had resigned from his position back in December when he was initially questioned by police about the accusations. The guard also allegedly had a history of complaints at the previous school he worked at as well. However, this is the first time criminal charges had been brought. The defendant is stating that he was doing nothing wrong and only performing his duties as a security guard.

When someone is charged with rape, he often requires a strong defense. However, when a man is charged with alleged child sex abuse of a girl who is 11-years-old, he requires an aggressive defense.

The charges stem from an alleged occurrence in June 2011. The girl, along with two of her siblings, was placed in foster care at the time the alleged sex crimes took place. The man who is accused of the crimes was the live-in boyfriend of the relative the children were sent to stay with in Harris County. The girl recently stated she did not feel safe while at that house because of the alleged sexual assault. The man allegedly came into the girl's bedroom at night and that's allegedly when the assault took place. After the alleged assault took place, the girl's parents told her to continue living with the defendant and to forgive him.

Most people, if caught driving intoxicated, would not voluntarily help the police to get themselves a felony DWI charge. However, one woman pulled over for drunk driving allegedly did exactly that.

A 43-year-old woman was pulled over for allegedly driving erratically near Houston. She had just been convicted of a DWI in county court for the second time the week before she was pulled over for a third time. Once she was pulled over, the police asked her for a voluntary blood sample, since this was the second time she was being arrested for a DWI. Instead of letting it go, the woman adamantly told the officer that it was her third arrest, not her second. The officer checked the computer, and then told her that, according to the system, this was only her second arrest. She continued to tell the officer that this was her third arrest and, finally, the officer proceeded to treat the DUI as a felony. As such, he was required to take a mandatory blood sample, as opposed to a voluntary one.
