The client was arrested after being suspected of being involved in a low lever drug transaction, was represented by Boston Criminal Attorney Steven J. Topazio. According to the Police Report, the police observed two male parties hanging around a building when moments later, the defendant pulled up in his motor vehicle and the two male parties began to hang into the motor vehicle with their arms inside the motor vehicle. When one male entered the motor vehicle; the middle console light was turned on as if both parties were looking at something. After a few moments, the party who entered the motor vehicle exited it and was stopped by police who discovered he was in possession of a syringe. The defendant’s motor vehicle was stopped and the defendant indicated when asked that he did not have a driver’s license, and was arested. The defendant was arrested and following a search of the motor vehicle, suboxone was found in the center console. Attorney Topazio filed a Motion to Suppress alleging the search of the defendant and his motor vehicle was illegal and without consent and that all evidence obtained by the police was the fruit of this wrongful search. Despite recommending committed time, today Attorney Topazio convinced the Assistant District Attorney to dismiss the possession offense and to reduce operating after license suspension subsequent offense to a first offense, and fining his client $500.00 in lieu of incarceration, instead of arguing the motion to suppress, and the Judge agreed.
