CRIMINAL APPEALS COURT REMINDS OFFICERS THAT THEY CANNOT STAY FOR DINNER AFTER ASKED TO LEAVE

Изображение
  The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals addressed a situation last week that I have seen come up in Dallas County drug cases more than once: what do the police have to do when somebody lets the police come into their home but then changes their mind? The case went to the Court of Criminal Appeals from the San Antonio Court of Appeals, with the case originating from Kerrville. The defendant was charged with methamphetamine possession. When deputy sheriffs responded to a disturbance call at her apartment, the defendant answered the door, and she appeared intoxicated and distraught.

 Polygraph tests are used routinely in Dallas County as a means of obtaining information and assuring compliance with conditions of probation (Community Supervision) in sex offender cases. In Dallas, and across State of Texas, sex offenders who are subject to rehabilitation are often granted deferred adjudication community supervision on condition that they participate in sex offender treatment. Lawyer office in Georgia . This week the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals held in a case out of Fort Worth (Tarrant County) that polygraph results cannot be used as the sole basis for revoking probation, for adjudicating guilt or for imprisoning the defendant in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. People who are charged with sex offenses are often faced with a difficult choice: go to trial and risk up to a life sentence, or admit guilt and accept deferred adjudication community supervision, with the risk of up to life in prison remaining an option if the probation department motions t...
