Charges of Assault and Battery by Means of a Dangerous Weapon Dismissed
On February 15, 2020 police in a Boston suburb were dispatched to a grocery store parking lot for a call of a female in distress. The officers met with the caller and her daughter who witnessed the incident. In some fashion both reported that during an argument the defendant, while driving, struck and broke his rearview mirror and used it to hit his wife. The man was charged with assault and battery by means of a dangerous weapon in violation of G.L. c. 265 section 15A. Attorney Stephen Neyman was retained to represent the defendant. Our investigation quickly established that witness reports were inaccurate and that the police version of the incident was inconsistent with the actual event. Witnesses, represented by counsel elected to properly invoke their privileges and the case was dismissed.
