At B Block Law LLC, we know that winning a criminal case often comes down to a defense attorney’s ability to interpret the law and apply it strategically. Recently, we won a harassment trial where the prosecutor’s case was a stretch from the start.
By applying the statutory rule of lenity, which requires that ambiguous criminal laws be interpreted in favor of the defendant, and pointing out the vagueness in Missouri’s harassment statute, I was able to secure a win for my client.
This is where a criminal defense attorney in St. Louis and Chesterfield, MO makes the difference. Knowing how to read and apply statutes, recognizing when the law is unclear, and using that to the client’s advantage can mean the difference between conviction and freedom.
Many people underestimate how broad harassment laws have become, and prosecutors often overreach. When statutes are too vague, they can be misapplied — and it’s the defense attorney’s job to make sure the law is applied fairly and within constitutional limits.
If you or someone you know has been charged under Missouri’s harassment laws, you need an attorney who understands both the letter and the spirit of the law. At B Block Law LLC, we have the experience and knowledge to fight back.
