The Commonwealth v. You: A practical guide to the Pennsylvania Criminal Justice System for those facing charges - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Facing criminal charges? Your future is at stake.

When you are accused of a crime, you go from being treated like a good citizen, neighbor, mother, father, co-worker, and friend to an accused criminal. Any interaction with the criminal justice system can you leave you feeling hopeless and helpless. Rather than understanding the facts and circumstances of each case and treating each individual with dignity and respect, our system has evolved to favor one-size-fits-all solutions and mass incarceration. When you are charged with a crime in Pennsylvania the case is given a title—Commonwealth v. [insert the name of the Defendant here]. The very name of the case emphasizes the reality of the challenge. Anyone facing criminal charges is fighting to defend their freedom and future against the full weight and power of the government of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. If you are in that situation it really does feel like it is the Commonwealth v. You.

Based on almost two decades of criminal litigation experience and participation in hundreds of criminal investigations and trials, a former active duty military officer, prosecutor, and trial attorney, provides an inside look at Pennsylvania’s criminal justice system.

The Commonwealth v. You is a practical guide for anyone who is under investigation or facing criminal charges.
