Sexual Abuse – Jury Acquittal

Teacher/Student Charges – Jury Acquittal
State of Iowa v. ***, J******
FECR009***

J*** was charged with Class C felony Sexual Abuse. The State offered a five year prison sentence and placement on the sex offender registry. After our extensive investigation, the State offered a Simple Misdemeanor Telephone Harrassment with a $65 fine. As a matter of principle, J*** refused the State’s offer. He risked a 10 year prison sentence if he lost. J*** received a Jury Acquittal on all charges.
