RESULTS: Not Guilty – Continuous Sexual Abuse of a Child and 3 Counts of Sexual Assault of a Child.
Facing some of the most serious allegations in Taylor County, Texas, Mr. Blizzard’s client was accused by his step-daughter of continuous sexual abuse over a five-year period. However, through a meticulous and unwavering defense, Mr. Blizzard successfully secured a “Not Guilty” verdict on all charges, including continuous sexual abuse of a child and three counts of sexual assault of a child.
Key Elements of the Defense
Expert Testimony:
A cell phone records expert testified that Mr. Blizzard’s client was not in the area during one of the alleged incidents, proving it was impossible for the assault to have occurred as claimed.
Physical Evidence:
Mr. Blizzard highlighted the unique scarring on the client, which the child would have noticed had the alleged abuse taken place, further discrediting the accusations.
Inconsistent Testimony:
Through thorough examination, it was revealed that the child’s testimonies were inconsistent and contained outright lies. This, combined with the police’s lack of proper investigation, made the witness not credible.
Outcome of the Case
After an intense three-day jury trial in Abilene, TX, Mr. Blizzard’s relentless pursuit of justice resulted in a “Not Guilty” verdict for his client. This legal victory not only cleared his client’s name but also highlighted the importance of thorough investigation and credible evidence in the justice system.
