Charges of Assault and Battery Against Economist Do Not Issue After Clerk Magistrate Hearing
Our client lives in a very expensive Boston suburb. She often takes her children to a local park. Several weeks ago she was at the park with her children and a friend. An unleashed dog ran up to our client, biting her and causing her to bleed. The dog owner ignored the incident, grabbed the dog and left. The injured woman went to confront the dog owner. While doing so she was physically assaulted. She responded in self defense.
