Background Investigations for Criminal Defense Investigations
Background investigations can be conducted on the prosecution's witnesses and any alleged victims. It is extremely important to dissect a person's background to determine if they have a history of lying, committing crimes or anything that might question their creditably. One simple example from a past case, a client was in a self-defense situation where he was charged with assault when he was simply defending himself. Our investigators scoured the person's background, address history and many other things to locate places to search for criminal records. We found the alleged victim had a history of violence and starting fights having multiple charges in two different states. Things like this are extremely important to look for.
Same rules apply with witnesses. We may have a scenario where a key witness claims they are simply a witness and doesn't know the alleged victim. In this case we would do a deep dive into their backgrounds to look for anything that would tie them together. having evidence that a key witness lied about their relationship with the alleged victim would be extremely helpful.
