Sixty-five year old retired Ohio Detective was indicted for Aggravated Burglary, Attempted Rape, Gross Sexual Imposition, and Kidnapping, all with Firearm Specifications. The accuser alleged that while on duty the detective committed the offenses while investigating another matter in her home. The case was litigated by Ian Friedman and Eric Nemecek. After almost one year of intense pre-trial motion debate, the jury was summoned to the courtroom to begin trial. The State of Ohio then accepted defense counsel’s proposal to conclude the case with only a misdemeanor plea. As such, the client was ultimately convicted of Dereliction of Duty which resulted in a $750.00 fine and six (months) of unmonitored probation. The client exited the courtroom to return home.
