As a <a href="http://www.freylegal.com/" target="_blank">criminal defense lawyer</a>, I have represented 100's of individuals facing allegations involving a sex crime. They may be charged with <a href="http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2907.02" target="_blank">Rape</a>, <a href="http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2907.05" target="_blank">Gross Sexual Imposition</a>, <a href="http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2907.07" target="_blank">Importuning</a>, <a href="http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2907.08" target="_blank">Voyeurism</a>, <a href="http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2907.09" target="_blank">Public Indecency</a>, or <a href="http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2907.321" target="_blank">Pandering Obscenity</a> and <a href="http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2907.323" target="_blank">Illegal Use of a Minor</a>. In each and every one of these cases, the stigma and impact upon the individual charged, from the allegation alone, is drastic. Although there is a presumption of innocence within the criminal justice system (presumed innocent until proven guilty), that presumption does not mean that there will not be severe and immediate consequences to both the individual charged and his or her immediate family and friends. Specifically, the allegation can result in an arrest, the collection of personal property by law enforcement and possibly incarceration until the case is resolved. Further, these matters are public record and the media is free to report on the allegation. This often involves the publication of the accused's mugshot within the newspaper and television.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If convicted of a sex crime, the punishments can be severe. In addition to the possibility of prison or jail time, there are also sexual registration requirements that are imposed. If you, or someone you know, is under investigation or is facing an allegation involving a sex crime, it is important to consult with a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible. I am prepared to address the matter and meet with you to discuss the situation in confidence. <b>Please do not hesitate to call The Frey Law Firm for a free initial consultation at (844) 766-3739.</b></div>

By <a class="g-profile" href="http://plus.google.com/114751886795823870730" target="_blank">+Ron Frey</a><br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to media reports, the investigation against Ariel Castro remains ongoing. Upon the collection and review of all evidence by the investigators, the matter will be presented by the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor, or a representative from the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's Office, to a Cuyahoga County Grand Jury. Thereafter, an Indictment will be returned and filed. The purpose of the Indictment is to put the Defendant on notice of the specific charges that have been brought. Generally, an Indictment will include the following items:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. specific offense(s) charged;</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. the code section of the offense(s) from the Ohio Revised Code;</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. the date, or date range. of the alleged offense(s); </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. the location whereupon the offenses are alleged to have been committed; and</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. the identity of the victim(s).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although the Indictment will contain the above information, it will not go into any great specificity regarding the actual details of the alleged conduct. This information will be released as the case progresses through the system via the public hearings and any public records or public comments.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Based upon information released to the public in the Castro case, it is anticipated that there will be many counts brought against Castro once the matter is reviewed by the Cuyahoga County Grand Jury. To give an example of how voluminous this Indictment may be, one should consider that generally, in Cuyahoga County, if a defendant is accused of improper sexual touching, he or she could face a separate count or charge for each body part that was improperly touched. As such, a person can find themselves charged with many counts from a single, relatively brief, alleged incident.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the Castro case, the investigation includes allegations from three (3) separate victims. Further, the allegations involve years of captivity. As such, it will come as no surprise if the Castro Indictment contains a multitude of counts and specifications. Obviously, we will have to wait until the Indictment is returned, but it must be noted that it is not at all uncommon to see Indictments filed in Cuyahoga County that contain a voluminous number of counts, sometimes in excess of one-hundred (100) counts.</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>

Cleveland, Ohio Criminal Defense Lawyer</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
As a criminal defense lawyer who practices in the Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas on a regular basis, I am often asked the following question by clients and prospective clients: "What happens at a pretrial?" The answer will depend upon a number of variables. This essay outlines the general process that occurs during a pretrial in Cuyahoga County in a criminal case.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
First, it is generally required that the defendant attend all criminal pretrial hearings in Cuyahoga County. Generally, the defendant is required to be present at the time that the pretrial is scheduled to commence. Most of the time the defendant will be asked to sit in the chairs outside of the courtroom during the pre-trial. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Many things can occur during a pretrial. Oftentimes, the pretrial consists of the criminal defense lawyer meeting with the prosecutor assigned the case to discuss any issues that need to be resolved. These talks can include discussions regarding the exchange of discovery or evidence in a case, the setting of hearing dates and any other legal or factual issues that may need to be addressed. Further, after the exchange of discovery, plea negotiations are generally entered into whereby the criminal defense attorney and the prosecutor discuss possible resolution of the matter via a plea bargain. In other circumstances, the discussion is focused more upon the trial and the logistics of trial if it is apparent that no plea deal will be reached. Generally, the defendant is not involved in these discussions between the criminal defense lawyer and the prosecuting attorney. Rather, the defendant will remain on the floor or within the courtroom and wait until his or her lawyer returns.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
In addition to meeting with the prosecuting attorney, criminal defense lawyers in Cuyahoga County also often meet with the judge on the case during pre-trial hearings. Each courtroom will handle this differently. However, if there is an issue that needs to be addressed by the court, or if the judge simply wants to meet with the lawyers in order to be updated as to the status of the case, the attorneys will often enter into the judge's chambers for a discussion.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
There are other times during pre-trials when the defendant, the attorneys and the judge go on the record in open court. It is for this reason that defendants should always be prepared and dressed professionally whenever they have a court date or pre-trial. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
In most cases there are multiple pretrials held. In many instances, a matter can be set for a pre-trial and can be converted into a different hearing. For instance, a case can be set for a pretrial in Cuyahoga County and it can be converted to a change of plea hearing if a resolution is reached during the pretrial.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<br />
<br />
According to media reports, investigators are still conducting an examination of the evidence in the Ariel Castro case. Castro has already appeared in court for an initial appearance. That hearing was held in the <a href="http://clevelandmunicipalcourt.org/">Cleveland Municipal Court</a>. At that time, a bond was set. His next court appearance will likely come at his arraignment. Castro's arraignment hearing will be set once he is indicted by the Cuyahoga County Grand Jury.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>
THE GRAND JURY</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Grand Jury proceeding is closed to the public. A prosecuting attorney from the <a href="http://prosecutor.cuyahogacounty.us/">Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's Office</a> will present evidence to the grand jurors. Ultimately, the grand jury will issue an Indictment. At this time, Castro has only been charged with three (3) counts of Rape and four (4) counts of Kidnapping involving the victims Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus, and Michelle Knight. It is widely anticipated that he will face many additional charges and additional counts once the Indictment is returned. It is important to note, the standard for getting charged or indicted with a criminal offense is probable cause. This is a much lower standard than what is employed at trial. At trial, guilt must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Probable cause is a much lower standard.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>
THE CASTRO INDICTMENT</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Indictment is a formal charging document that outlines the specific crimes alleged along with applicable references to the Ohio Revised Code. The Indictment will generally outline the basic elements of each alleged offense and will also generally provide the date and location of the criminal conduct. I expect that once the Indictment is filed, the media will publish it for widespread viewing. It is important to note, the Indictment will indicate the charges being brought, but it will generally not go into any great detail as to the specific conduct.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>
THE CASTRO ARRAIGNMENT</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once indicted, the Castro case will be set for arraignment. At this time, the general public will be able to access the <a href="http://cpdocket.cp.cuyahogacounty.us/" target="_blank">on-line docket for Cuyahoga County</a> in order to follow the matter (journal entries, court filings, motions, briefs etc.) as it proceeds through the justice system. The felony arraignments in Cuyahoga County are held on the 12th floor of the Cuyahoga County Justice Center. Since Castro is incarcerated, he may not be present in the courtroom for the arraignment. Instead, he may appear via video from the jail. If this is the case, his attorneys will be present in the courtroom and speak on his behalf. Castro will be able to hear and see the proceedings via video from the jail. Generally, this is how incarcerated defendants are arraigned. However, Castro could exercise his right to be present within the courtroom for the arraignment proceeding. If he does, he will be present in court with his attorneys. He will remain in his jail uniform for the arraignment proceedings.</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A Cuyahoga County Judge will conduct the arraignment. Generally, the defense attorney will address the court and indicate the following:</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. The defense is in receipt of the Indictment;</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. The 24 hour statutory period has been satisfied (i.e. the Defendant has had a copy of the Indictment for more than 24 hrs. prior to the arraignment). This requirement can be waived if the Defendant did not have a copy;</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Waive reading (the defense will generally waive the reading of the Indictment open court);</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. Enter a plea of not guilty to all counts; and</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. Request a reasonable bond or the opportunity to make a bond argument.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Generally, the judge sets a bond, taking into consideration information from the bond commissioner, and assigns a judge to the case. Please see my blog regarding <a href="http://clevelandcriminalattorney.blogspot.com/2009/04/bail-bonds-in-ohio-state-courts.html" target="_blank">Cuyahoga County Bonds</a> wherein I delineate the different types of bonds that can be set in a criminal case. In Cuyahoga County, the judge is assigned randomly. The judge that conducts the arraignment will not be assigned to preside over the case itself. With regard to the issue of bond, please see </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some judges in Cuyahoga County provide the arraignment judge with a date upon which they want the first pre-trial in the case set. If one of those judges is assigned the case, Castro and his attorneys will be immediately informed of the date upon which they will need to be back in court. If a judge is assigned who does not provide dates, no date will be given at the time of the arraignment. Instead, the date will be set thereafter and communicates to the attorneys generally by way of a telephone call from the bailiff or some other method of notice.<br />
<br />

Further, Cleveland Criminal Defense Lawyer, Attorney Ian Friedman is featured in a video wherein he explains aspects of the Indictment, Arraignment and Bond. I have included that video below:</div>

<b>THE MEDIA IN THE ARRAIGNMENT ROOM - CUYAHOGA COUNTY</b></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is fairly common for media to be present within the arraignment room in Cuyahoga County. Generally, film crews are able to setup their cameras in order to record the arraignment proceedings. Even if a Defendant appears via video, the media is generally able to record the video screen upon which the defendant appears.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In Cuyahoga County, generally, only the Defendant's who have been summoned to be arraigned, their attorneys, members of the media and court staff are permitted within the arraignment room. Family members, friends, alleged victims and others are generally not able to be accommodated. Unless there is some sort of issue pertaining to bond, the average arraignment lasts only a few minutes. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<br />
In Ohio, individuals sentenced to incarceration in a Correctional Facility may be eligible for early release. This mechanism of release is known as Judicial Release. This process begins by filing a Motion requesting that the sentencing judge afford the inmate the opportunity to be released and placed on conditions of Community Controlled Sanctions. The timing for eligibility varies depending upon the level of the felony offense and the duration of the sentence imposed. <br />
<br />
Since its inception, <a href="http://www.faflegal.com/">Friedman & Frey, L.L.C.</a> has had success across the State of Ohio representing individuals seeking early release from prison. The goal of each Motion is to capture the true identity of the individual, and such an endeavor is not possible without investing a great deal of preparation into each Motion to be considered. <br />
<br />
You see, it is our job to educate the court as to who our client really is and why they should get a second chance. At <a href="http://www.faflegal.com/">Friedman & Frey, L.L.C.</a> we are skilled at helping judges or juries see the inner dignity and basic humanity of a person. Using verifying documents and letters of support on behalf of our client, we will construct an argument supporting the individual’s character and sincerity so that they can be treated with as much dignity and respect as they deserve.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In general, the question in a case of alleged Assault or Domestic Violence hinges on whether the individual caused or attempted to cause physical harm to another. This simple question is commonly surrounded by complex circumstances and questions that need to be considered in order to prepare the strongest defense for a client. A conviction for a crime of violence such as Assault or Domestic Violence may have serious consequences such as imprisonment, loss of livelihood, financial judgment, and harm to reputation. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Through the years, <a href="http://www.faflegal.com/">Friedman & Frey, L.L.C.</a> has represented individuals accused of assault or domestic violence, who were in fact innocent. Further, people may have been involved in a violent incident but the circumstances justified their actions. Until an exhaustive investigation is performed by the defense, a client may not know all of the possible defenses available to them. It is for this reason that our lawyers place great emphasis on investigation and pre-trial motion practice. If a case must proceed to trial, any element of surprise should be minimized. Such diligent preparation for trial often leads to cases resolving early with less emotional trauma, and less disruption to a client’s personal and professional life. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

The public is inundated with reports of computer-based sex offenses. Yet state and federal law enforcement agencies continue to increase their efforts in prosecuting other technology-based offenses. Examples of these “cybercrimes” include but are not limited to: <br />
<br />
<br />
On-line Fraud<br />
<br />
On-line Theft<br />
<br />
Computer Intrusions (Hacking)<br />
<br />
On-line Threats & Harassment<br />
<br />
Copyright Infringement<br />
<br />
Internet Gambling<br />
<br />
Espionage<br />
<br />
Property Crimes<br />
<br />
An effective defense of a cybercrime requires counsel that understands how these traditional crimes have evolved into their current technological context. Also, the lawyers of <a href="http://www.faflegal.com/">Friedman & Frey, L.L.C.</a> understand the technology itself. This is a crucial point, because it enables them to provide a more comprehensive defense strategy. <br />
<br />
In addition to representing individuals charged with technology-based offenses, firm members regularly lecture and write about issues relating to this rapidly growing area. In fact, Mr. Friedman serves as an Adjunct Professor of Law teaching Computers & Criminal Law; Mr. Frey is an Adjunct Instructor teaching Criminal Forensics. <br />
<br />

Rape, sexual assault, unlawful conduct with a minor, gross sexual imposition--accusations such as these not only carry severe penalties, but they can seemingly turn the whole world against you.
