The depths in which law enforcement agencies narrate stories and twists your statement aren’t pleasing, sometimes rendering helps gets you in trouble and it’s not something anyone will be proud of. I helped a drunk guy off the roadway and he fell off and had slight accidents, I was accused of pushing him to the roadway, I was charged and that affected my livelihood. Couldn’t get a better job or pay a proper rent due to background checks of crime I didn’t entirely commit. Few months passed and my cousin introduced me to a programmer whom helped me clear my crime records from the database, have been always grateful for the opportunity that presented itself to me.
For people living in a perfect world delusion, a person can get arrested with no resistance for speeding and the officer can escalate the charge to retaliation felony for saying you will see him in court and fight the ticket. We no longer live in a free country in the USA
That sucks. That’s why it’s best not to say anything. If the officer wants to arrest you, just say “do what you gotta do”. They may still try to throw some bullcrap charges in there, but it’s still up to the prosecutor to go forward and prove those charges. The sad thing is that society doesn’t see things that way
Cops are dirty. Never believe them or give them permission to do anything. They can legally lie to you and manipulate you. They pretend to be on your side and they never are.
When applying for any felony expungement, be sure to file a 17(b) as well which is simply a request to have your felony reduced to a misdemeanor before the expungement. These can be done at the same time and the judge can grant the reduction and expungement at the same time. DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT hire an attorney for this. An attorney will charge you 1500 to 5000 dollars. Go to the public defenders office. They will assist you in filling out and filing the paperwork for FREE!
So me and my friends thought it would be funny to break my neighor’s window. Then he called the cops and we charged with burglary. but we only broke the window. This happen in 2009. We completed our 5 years probation, comomunity service and fine and restitution. Can I file a form to reduce buglary to damaging property?

Any advice on a 6 year old first offense for personal dug use charge ? With no prior record and no contact or trouble with police since that first offense ?
I was a dumb 18 year old, I got charged with theft 2 which is a Class C?? felony in Alaska. They put me on 6 months unsupervised probation, told me just stay out of trouble for 6 months. I got that done they dropped the Felony to a Class A Misdemeanor. And they said my case was dismissed. My question is am I still a convicted felon and if my case was dismissed am I still convicted of anything Felony or Misdemeanor??? Edit: I was 18 at the time I was so confused and scared to death. The whole process was confusing to me. I am 21 year old now
So I was charged with burglary of habitation I was a 20 year college student my freshman year. I’m 21 now I also play football at the university. I have a attorney! I was with some friends other football players and they went and his dorm and stole his phone on campus. I was with them but never went in the room. Days later the kid got his phone back and wanted drop the. Charges but the campus police didn’t really want him to so he didn’t. But months later the kid wants to drop the charges now. I’m also a first time offeneder. Still playing football at a different college and still in school. Any advice? Also I went and take to the police about what happen that night willing and they took me jail after I gave them all the information they wanted.
@1MONEYJAY YT Hey bro... I will advice you reach out to a professional who can help you clear all that. (spirassp . com) helped me with my felony charges. 4 in total, 2 got cleared and the others reduced into minor misdemeanor. My life changed for real.
I got an f3 reduced to an m1 recently. I get properly sentenced in September. I had to do supervised probation for 4 months to get it reduced tho it sucks. These are my first offenses so ask your attorney to get that felony dropped down asap. Say you are even willing to plead out asap. Go to your prelim if you didn't go yet don't waive it unless you have no shot at winning the case.
@@shinski8114 if you got your f3 felony reduced down to a misdemeanor with no jail time, then you been screwed. They had no real evidence against you. That misdemeanor “deal” you had was something that they should have charged you with in the first place

Thanks for this great information. What if the felony is tax fraud and the defendant is a green card holder, a single male with no family or real estate in the USA? I highly doubt that charge can be reduced to a misdemeanor.
It happen exactly how you stated it forge wrong name on police document went to trail it was my first offense judge knocked it down to misdemeanor I paid fine No probation
Lol, I love how people in legal situations always tell things are possible but never tell you how it's possible so it's actually still possible for them to need to be used in your defense.. I have a simple possession charge that was moved to a felony possession of cds it's for marijuana... I'm wanting to find out the motion needed to drop this down to a misdemeanor case especially since it's not legal here where I am for the last 4 yrs.. This is keeping me from being able to get a really good job and I also just need to get it done with and over.. but I don't see the need trying to go in and accept a felony conviction when I know for a fact it's possible especially with marijuana and especially with the amount I had to have this case entered into a misdemeanor court instead of a felony court..
I would say this. Anything to do with drugs, sex, death, theft and children… you are pretty much screwed. I also have a felony charge for “intimidation” and “possible deadly weapon drawn”. The prosecutor just wants to win. He is willing to throw out the weapon charge because he can’t prove it, but he wants me to plea to “intimidation” because I’m a big black guy lol. I have no priors. My felony charges shows up on background checks. It’s been a year now. But you know what? This has been a blessing in disguise, because it forced me to start a small business. I deliver things with my flatbed trailer. I could get arrested, bail out the same day and don’t even have to stress about that “good paying job” because I’m my own man out here now

You have to get an Attorney. If it's already a felony cut and dried then you have to get an Attorney that specifically deals with expungements and such.
What can I expect going to pretrial for interfering with a police investigation first offense no criminal record? Will I go to prison? Is it a felony or a misdemeanor?
I will not accept a plea deal. If the prosecution is not willing to simply reduce the charge to a misdemeanor without a plea, how/when can I get the judge to determine the case is a misdemeanor offense and not a felony? It is considered a wobbler crime.

@Lilmosey1320Leaksss , it's still gonna show up as a felony if someone does a background check. Been dealing with this for 24 years. Mine was downgraded to misdemeanor but it still was a felony act. Do a background check on yourself after you've been told it downgraded just to be sure.

I’m just now working on a reduction or expungement so that I can get my clinical license.
What were your charges
@@Backendddz welfare fraud
Smh. Sounds like you got railroaded
Any advice on a 6 year old first offense for personal dug use charge ? With no prior record and no contact or trouble with police since that first offense ?
I was a dumb 18 year old, I got charged with theft 2 which is a Class C?? felony in Alaska. They put me on 6 months unsupervised probation, told me just stay out of trouble for 6 months. I got that done they dropped the Felony to a Class A Misdemeanor. And they said my case was dismissed.
My question is am I still a convicted felon and if my case was dismissed am I still convicted of anything Felony or Misdemeanor???
Edit: I was 18 at the time I was so confused and scared to death. The whole process was confusing to me. I am 21 year old now
Not a felon but it's still a mark against you
Can I ask what did you do???
I did a armed robbery at 18 and im 19 rn out on bond give me advice my case federal
@@julianmachado9095 federal? Oh Jesus you are screwed…
@Miguel Robb public defender told me D/A trying to give me 2 years but i qualify for the first offender program
I got my felony reduced to a misdemeanor and it still shows up as a felony on my background check
😢worst news ever
Probably because you were arrested on felony charges. Just FYI
I got charged with reckless driving (speed) in Virginia and reduced it to an infraction. Still shows up as reckless driving lol
Get your lawyer to write a letter to the background agencies to show it was reduced. Look into expungements
Happen same to me,paper says dropped down to class a mis,but felony also,i feel they tricked me again
“Better Call Saul!”
How can I go back to court and thank the judge or my probation? It been since 04-2016 since I have been a changed man
Either commuting another crime or just simply go back yourself lol the second choice sounds better tho
Write a letter. Its easier to express yourself in a letter.
Great video! Do you have any recommendations for defense lawyers in Michigan?
Thank you for a great informative video.

Days later the kid got his phone back and wanted drop the. Charges but the campus police didn’t really want him to so he didn’t. But months later the kid wants to drop the charges now. I’m also a first time offeneder. Still playing football at a different college and still in school. Any advice? Also I went and take to the police about what happen that night willing and they took me jail after I gave them all the information they wanted.

I got an f3 reduced to an m1 recently. I get properly sentenced in September. I had to do supervised probation for 4 months to get it reduced tho it sucks. These are my first offenses so ask your attorney to get that felony dropped down asap. Say you are even willing to plead out asap. Go to your prelim if you didn't go yet don't waive it unless you have no shot at winning the case.
@@shinski8114 if you got your f3 felony reduced down to a misdemeanor with no jail time, then you been screwed. They had no real evidence against you. That misdemeanor “deal” you had was something that they should have charged you with in the first place

In a nutshell be born very wealthy or you're screwed. If you have the misfortune of being born poor than you have few choices. You can be cannon fodder, aka join the armed forces, you can sale the drugs our government brings in and end up being free labor for the evangelical Godist churches private prison industry, or you can be a royal serf, meaning your call work yourself to death for almost enough to survive. IDC you're lucky enough to learn to break the rules were taught while making money for whomever is no more than one of two steps up from you, you can climb up out of poverty. I'm including all but upper middle class in that group known as "the poor"

You should still be able to get a passport with a felony but some countries don’t allow felons entry though.
You can get a passport, but getting a visa to a country will be the hard part.

Then don’t do something that could get you a felony charge, it’s pretty simple.
Thanks for this great information. What if the felony is tax fraud and the defendant is a green card holder, a single male with no family or real estate in the USA? I highly doubt that charge can be reduced to a misdemeanor.
Deportation. Immediantly.

What is it assault and felony
It happen exactly how you stated it forge wrong name on police document went to trail it was my first offense judge knocked it down to misdemeanor I paid fine No probation
Lol, I love how people in legal situations always tell things are possible but never tell you how it's possible so it's actually still possible for them to need to be used in your defense..
I have a simple possession charge that was moved to a felony possession of cds it's for marijuana...
I'm wanting to find out the motion needed to drop this down to a misdemeanor case especially since it's not legal here where I am for the last 4 yrs..
This is keeping me from being able to get a really good job and I also just need to get it done with and over.. but I don't see the need trying to go in and accept a felony conviction when I know for a fact it's possible especially with marijuana and especially with the amount I had to have this case entered into a misdemeanor court instead of a felony court..
I would say this. Anything to do with drugs, sex, death, theft and children… you are pretty much screwed. I also have a felony charge for “intimidation” and “possible deadly weapon drawn”. The prosecutor just wants to win. He is willing to throw out the weapon charge because he can’t prove it, but he wants me to plea to “intimidation” because I’m a big black guy lol. I have no priors. My felony charges shows up on background checks. It’s been a year now. But you know what? This has been a blessing in disguise, because it forced me to start a small business. I deliver things with my flatbed trailer. I could get arrested, bail out the same day and don’t even have to stress about that “good paying job” because I’m my own man out here now
@@miguelrobb5719 even tho they say after 2018 in Oklahoma all possession of CDS is considered a misdemeanor offense not a felony.?.?
@@stephenhanes8043here’s an update for me. I got accepted into a pre trial diversion program. After a year, the case gets dismissed and I can go on with my life. 8 months down and 4 more months to go and I’m completely free of this crap. No more case hanging over my head and my record remains free of any convictions.

What if your priors are arrested for a felony but it got dismissed to a misdemeanor? So you technically only misdemeanor charges
Yes, your final disposition was a misdemeanor so you have no felony on your record.
@@Kadijakxobut does it help reduce felonies
@@googlegmail9888 I’ve never been through the process before so I’m not quite sure, but I believe if you were initially charged with a felony but got it reduced to a misdemeanor in the end, then only a misdemeanor is listed on your record. I hope that answers your question.

Would you accept a pre trial diversion with out drug evidence being lab tested first?
Yes because now, it doesn't have to be the real drugs in some cases. As long as you were selling this fake, lookalike substance as the real drug, you can still be charged and convicted as if it were the real drug.
Just research the laws in your state/county. Many states have adopted this as law

Make suuuuure you get a face to face answer with an Attorney on this question. You can end up in prison trying to vote. There was a case with a female I believe was in Texas that she ended up with prison time for trying to vote and was told her felony had been downgraded to a misdemeanor.
You can't vote if you have a felony on your record, not a misdemeanor.

Didnt even explain how to reduce it. Paperwork etc.
You have to get an Attorney. If it's already a felony cut and dried then you have to get an Attorney that specifically deals with expungements and such.
They have to prove a Felony. It is totally not have to prove a misdemeanor.
How much do you charge?
What can I expect going to pretrial for interfering with a police investigation first offense no criminal record? Will I go to prison? Is it a felony or a misdemeanor?
I will not accept a plea deal. If the prosecution is not willing to simply reduce the charge to a misdemeanor without a plea, how/when can I get the judge to determine the case is a misdemeanor offense and not a felony? It is considered a wobbler crime.
