A date rape charge may stem from a mistake or a misunderstanding, usually compounded by the presence of alcohol or possibly drugs. When two people have a previous relationship and are voluntarily spending time together, and forced or unwanted sexual intercourse results, you have a situation commonly referred to as date rape. Sometimes these charges may be based upon miscommunication or based upon entirely false accusations for the purpose of revenge or because one partner was angry or jealous.
Orange County date rape attorney Jennifer Le has experience defending those who are accused of raping someone they know. By using forensic and DNA evidence, witness testimony and California state law in your favor, we may be able to disprove the prosecution’s charges or prove that the accuser enhanced facts or lied about therapy or sexual assault entirely. As a former Deputy District Attorney, Mrs. Le has a clear view of both sides of a criminal charge and can supply creative and effective defense strategies to help you win your case.
When two people are intoxicated, even slightly, their judgment at the time and recollection of certain events at a later date may be skewed. A person who did not want to have intercourse or engage in sexual activity may have given no indication whatsoever and may have even been in agreement at the time; then at a later time realized that they did not want to engage in those activities.
By thoroughly evaluating your particular case and the events that led to your date rape accusation, Orange County date rape and sex crimes lawyer Jennifer Le can build a case in your favor that will hold up in a court of law. If you are looking for a dedicated lawyer who will fight to help you stay out of jail, you have come to the right place.
