Defending violent crimes in Los Angeles requires skill, knowledge and experience. It can also require a creative mind, because sometimes a violent crime will occur at either an odd location or a sacred one. Churches, schools, cemeteries and other sacred locations can be the site of criminal charges, even though everyone in attendance understands the importance of the location. This is when a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Lawyer is so important, to protect your rights in even the most embarrassing situations. In San Bernardino County, police and investigators are examining a violent brawl that took place in a kindergarten graduation ceremony. Women were allegedly arguing and got physical in a field near a ceremony at Puesta del Sol Elementary in Victorville, CA. Several men were also involved, forcing school officials to place the school on lockdown until deputies could sort the matter out. Several misdemeanor charges were filed, including against the two women who allegedly started the incident. Prosecutors say the women could face up to six months in jail if convicted for interference with peaceful conduct at a school as well as 90 more days for unlawful acts committed on school grounds. Attorneys have a difficult job, as you can see, protecting the rights and freedoms of people facing severe punishments. The potential for 9 months in jail is more than many people can bare, and could cause an individual to lose their job, face public shame and much more. Violent Crimes in Los Angeles are seriously prosecuted, even those crimes that are misdemeanors.
