Charges of Indecent Assault and Battery Against Accountant Nolle Prossed

The defendant is an accountant working at a well known international accounting firm. Several weeks ago he was at a nightclub with some friends. A women in the club approached the bouncers and complained that while waiting in a line for the bathroom a man reached up her skirt and touched her genitalia with his fingers. She quickly identified our client as the culprit. The bouncer removed the man from the bar and detained him until Boston Police came to the venue. When they arrived the victim again identified our client. He was charged with indecent assault and battery in violation of G.L. c. 265 Section 13H. He hired Attorney Stephen Neyman immediately. At the arraignment Attorney Neyman presented the judge with a Rule 17 subpoena request, seeking videotape evidence from the nightclub. The judge allowed the motion. The nightclub produced the security videotape. This clearly showed that our client did not commit this case. The evidence prompted the prosecution to file a nolle prosse today. All charges are now dismissed.
