A Franklin County Court of Common Pleas Judge recently acquitted Evan’s and Co-Counsel Joe Landusky’s client on one count of Drug Possession, a Felony of the First Degree. If convicted, the client faced a minimum sentence of three years in prison. Joe and Evan successfully argued that their client had no knowledge of drugs found in a vehicle the client had borrowed.
The Court separately found that the state had not proved the lesser included offense of Fifth Degree Felony level possession beyond a reasonable doubt.
