Understanding Official Misconduct Charges
My history as a prosecutor provides me insight into exactly what the state must prove to obtain a conviction on official misconduct, from proving that you were acting in your capacity as a public official to proving that you knowingly committed an unauthorized act to benefit yourself or deprive someone else of a benefit. Such actions can involve any variety of white collar crimes, including misrepresentation, embezzlement and fraud. However, it is important to understand that the act you participated in need not be criminal in nature.
I am also available to assist public servants who have been charged with a crime or pattern of official misconduct.
