What can my husband do after neighbor lied and charged him with harassment?
Question
Police were called yesterday. Neighbor alleged that he’s been harassing her, she stated that yesterday he was staring at her son in small pool outside. He wasn’t. She’s lying. Police took her side, called her victim. She’s been harassing us, yelling at us, banging on walls. He got summons for court.
Criminal Defense Lawyer, R. Christopher Simons Answer
If your husband has been charged with a crime, then he needs an attorney. I agree with Mr. Rafter that “she’s lying” is not going to be a good defense. However, an experienced attorney will know how to investigate the case to find the holes in your neighbor’s statements.
