Cross Complaint Against Alleged Victim Issues After Appeal From Clerk Magistrate Hearing
The defendant is our client charged with domestic assault and battery under G.L. c. 265 Section 13M. The “victim” is our client’s husband who deceived her into marrying him for the sole purpose of him obtaining citizenship. When our client realized that she had been tricked she sought to terminate the marriage. The “victim” then orchestrated a domestic assault that he filmed. He contacted the police and our client was charged based on what he had produced on videotape. He then endeavored to avail himself of the victim of domestic assault asylum laws. Our office filed a cross-claim that was initially denied by the clerk magistrate. A judge heard the matter and agreed with Attorney Neyman and issued a complaint against the alleged victim.
