Charges of Domestic Assault and Battery Against Non-Citizen Dismissed on Day of Trial
On June 21, 2019 police responded to a call for a domestic disturbance. The female caller stated that she was shoved by the defendant while he was intoxicated. Officers went to the scene and interviewed the defendant and the victim. The victim stated that the defendant and his father had been drinking scotch all night. The drinking led to an argument that involved recurring marital problems. The victim attempted to record the argument on her cell phone. The defendant became incensed and shoved the victim in the chest, twisted her wrist and arm and took from her the phone on which the incident had been recorded. The defendant, a non-citizen on a work visa was arrested and charged with domestic assault and battery under G.L. c. 265 Section 13M. Today our office was able to get all charges dismissed.
