ESPN and Domestic BatteryPosted on: August 23, 2010 at 10:21 p.m.Any Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney will tell you that being charged with any form of domestic violence can ruin your life in the short and long term. Many domestic violence cases in Los Angeles involve here-say (he said, she said) but the laws heavily favor the victim and/or accuser, making it very difficult to effectively defend against such charges. Even if someone is falsely accused, or if the accuser rescinds the charges, police must investigate any domestic violence accusation. This is just one of the reasons why a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney must be contacted the instant you are arrested for any such crime. An ESPN commentator was recently accused of domestic violence. Jay Mariotti, who is regularly on ESPN productions, was released from jail on a $50,000 bond after being arrested on suspicion of felony domestic assault at about 4:00 am Saturday morning. He allegedly struck his girlfriend after an incident in Santa Monica, CA. The two exchanged "harsh words" according to sources and media outlets after Mariotti suspected his girlfriend of flirting with another man. Police were called to the apartment and found his girlfriend with cuts and bruises, allegedly from the ESPN announcer grabbing her and tearing something off of her ear. For Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorneys representing people accused of domestic violence, getting every fact straight and every witness interviewed is absolutely necessary. For your lawyer to be effective, he must know every detail, including people who may have been around you during the alleged incident. Creating an effective defense involves having all the facts handy. In this instance, finding a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney you can trust can be the difference between spending years in prison and living as a free man.
