Rebecca LeGrand on BBC analyzing the defense team's strategy in the Manafort trial

Attorney Rebecca LeGrand appeared on BBC World News America to share insights on the Manafort defense team's decision to rest its case without calling any witnesses. Forgoing calling any witnesses is always a tough call for the defense, but as Ms. LeGrand explained "It's probably a smart call on a case like this to focus on poking holes in the government's case, instead of putting your own people up there to receive the same kind of potential punishment." Ms. LeGrand also highlighted the importance of documents in this case, and the heavy lifting that must be done by the jury to reach a verdict in a complex white collar case like this one.

LeGrand Law Secures Dismissal of Criminal Charges Against Inauguration Day Protester

LeGrand Law is pleased to announce the dismissal of all charges against our client, who was arrested while protesting the election of President Trump on Inauguration Day last year.

Our client was among numerous individuals charged by federal prosecutors with felony rioting, conspiracy to riot, and destruction of property in connection with the Inauguration Day protests.

Late last week, Chief Judge Robert E. Morin of the D.C. Superior Court dismissed with prejudice the conspiracy to riot charge against our client, as well as several of his co-defendants, as reported by the Washington Post. The dismissal with prejudice was a sanction against the government for intentionally misrepresenting information and wrongfully withholding evidence favorable to our client and the other defendants, in violation of the government’s obligations under Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 (1963). 

LeGrand Law is grateful that our young client is finally free from the burden of criminal charges and an impending trial that was hanging over his head for over a year and a half, and that he can now move on with his life.
