Paying careful attention all of to discovery beyond the collection of evidence is also important. This allows us to find potential weaknesses in the prosecution’s case. But, to find those weaknesses one has to be expert in all the elements that prosecution must prove.

Things to remember…
Only talk to your attorney. If you think you are being accused of a theft, burglary, receiving stolen property, or any other theft or property crimes don’t talk to anyone until you’ve talked to a qualified lawyer.
Also, never consent to search if asked. Just say no thank you.
