Ever heard of "diversion" in criminal cases? Diversion programs offer an alternative path for individuals charged with certain offenses, allowing them to avoid a conviction by completing specific requirements, such as counseling, community service, or rehabilitation.

These programs can be a powerful option for those facing minor charges, particularly first-time offenders, by helping them stay out of the court system.

Winter driving can be unpredictable, with snow, slush, and ice contributing to approximately 24% of all vehicle accidents. But by taking a few extra precautions, you can help reduce the risks:

🚗 Prepare Your Vehicle: Ensure your battery is in good condition, check tire pressure, and completely clear ice and snow from your car before hitting the road.

🌨️ Stay Informed: Always check the forecast and consider signing up for alerts to stay ahead of winter storms.

❄️ Drive Cautiously: Avoid sudden braking or turning, steer gently in the direction of any skid, and disable cruise control when driving on icy surfaces.

🛣️ Plan Your Routes: Bridges, overpasses, and shaded areas tend to freeze first, so stay aware and plan your journey with these hazards in mind.

What happens when a crime occurs because someone is pressured into it? In legal cases, this is known as “entrapment.”

Entrapment occurs when law enforcement persuades or pressures an individual into committing a crime they otherwise wouldn’t have committed. In the U.S., if entrapment can be proven, it may be used as a defense to have charges dropped.

So, what does entrapment look like, and how can it impact a case?

✅ To prove entrapment, it must be shown that law enforcement induced the crime and that the defendant was not already inclined to commit it.
✅ Entrapment requires more than mere suggestion; it involves significant pressure or persuasion by law enforcement.
✅ A proven entrapment defense can lead to charges being reduced or even dropped altogether.

If you have questions about entrapment or your rights, give us a call. Our team is here to provide guidance.
