A St. Louis man was accused of DWI after allegedly swerving, failing all field sobriety tests, and blowing a .14 on a breath test machine. Attorney Brian Cooke filed a motion to suppress the results of the breath test. Through a careful cross examination, we were able to show that the officer had failed to follow state regulations when administering the breath test and did not know how to perform the field sobriety tests correctly. As a result, the judge ruled that the breath test was inadmissible at trial. The state made an offer for a reduced charge which our client turned down. On the day of trial, the prosecutor dismissed the case. We also won the DOR license hearing. As a result, our client was able to walk away with completely clean record.

A Jefferson County woman was charged with possession of methamphetamine after police claimed that they found methamphetamine in her bedroom, as well as numerous items of paraphernalia and meth-making chemicals throughout her home. To complicate matters, the police claimed they found our client hiding right next to where the meth was found. During the trial we were able to create reasonable doubt by undermining the credibility of the officers involved. The jury returned a quick not guilty verdict.

A St. Louis man was charged with Robbery 1st Degree and armed criminal action. Attorney Brian Cooke challenged the credibility of the alleged victims story. All charges were subsequently dismissed.
