Greeley Defense Attorney for Person and Violent Crimes
Person and violent crimes are given close attention in Weld, Morgan, and Logan County, with penalties ranging from a $50 fine to the death penalty. Compared to property crimes like Theft, government workers worry about public criticism if they act with restraint in punishing offenders. Many of these person and violent crimes are charged as an act of Domestic Violence when the alleged victim is or has been in an intimate relationship with the accused. Some of these crimes are very easily charged, as the threshold for the actions is low. The Weld County Sheriff deputies and Greeley Police know what to ask victims to encourage admissions so they can arrest someone for these easy to charge crimes. Especially for those crimes where the victim's feelings are a vital part to determining if a crime was committed or not.
