Robberies in Phoenix On the Rise

Reward for Phoenix Robbery Suspect

Yet another robbery has taken place in good ol’ Phoenix. However, this time, if you could help the authorities you could make a little cash. A $1,000 reward is being offered if you have any information that could help the police track down the two men that robbed a Phoenix body shop at gunpoint on January 25th.

Silent Witness have released images of the two men that police say entered the Estrada Body Paint & Auto Repair. The Auto Repair shop is located close to 13th and Washington streets around 12:35 p.m. kind of odd to rob someone at lunch time.

One of the suspected men walked behind the counter and then pointed a gun at the clerk and demanded the money. The other man was the lookout man.

Suspect at Large

Silent Witness says that police are now looking for a Hispanic man. They think that he is around thirty years old and around five foot, nine inches tall. He weighs around two hundred pounds. He also has black hair and brown eyes. They also say he has a beard. At the time he was wearing a black hat and black boots and blue work pants.

The lookout man was described as having a beard and was wearing an Oakland Raiders hoodie. Not much to go on with that one.

If anyone has any information, please call Silent Witness at 480-WITNESS. Don’t forget, if you help out you could get a little cash for you trouble!

FBI Searches for Bank Robber

Usually when you think of a robbery you think of a group of guys because that’s what you see in the movies. Well this time, the FBI is asking for the public’s help in finding a woman who is wanted in the connection of multiple bank robberies around the metro Phoenix area in just the last month.

Apparently, Phoenix likes to name their robbery suspects bandit because her name is “SOS Bandit”. Why? because of her “slip on shoes”. She has robbed at least four banks between January 30th and February 16th using the same plan in each of the robberies according to an FBI press release.

The woman entered the banks and acted as if she was just a regular customer however after a few moments that changed. She presented a note to the tellers demanding money, threatening “physical harm” if her demands weren’t met.

 

The woman is linked to robberies at:

  • Amtrust Bank at 8764 E. Shea Boulevard in Scottsdale on Jan. 30.
  • Amtrust Bank at 2975 W. Ray Road in Chandler on Feb. 11.
  • Bank of America at 8750 E. Raintree Drive in Scottsdale on Feb. 15.
  • JP Morgan Chase at 1744 E. Southern Ave. in Tempe on Feb. 16.

Phoenix Criminal Threats Lawyer

Criminal Defense Cases

Formerly referred to as terroristic threats, the crime of criminal threats may be charged as a misdemeanor or a felony offense, depending on case specifics. A criminal threat occurs when an individual threatens to kill or injure another person and that person has a reasonably sustained fear for his or her safety, or the safety of his or her immediate family. A defendant may potentially be convicted of making criminal threats even if he or she did not intend to carry out the threat, provided that the alleged victim had a reasonable basis to fear for his or her safety.

 

Arrest in Phoenix for Criminal Threats

If you have been arrested for making a criminal threat, it is critical that you protect your rights by retaining an experienced criminal defense attorney. For a vigorous defense, contact the Law Offices of Criminal Defense Lawyers PLLC immediately.

Arizona prosecutors have considerable discretion to charge criminal threats offenses as a misdemeanor or a felony. If you are convicted of a misdemeanor criminal threat, harassment or stalking offense, you could face up to one year in county jail. If you are convicted of a felony criminal threats offense, you could face up to four years in state prison. You could face significantly greater penalties if you used a firearm or other dangerous weapon while making criminal threats.

 

Types of Criminal Threats

A Criminal Threat is a strike offense, which means that you could face significantly enhanced penalties if you are convicted of a future felony. Even a nonviolent felony could result in twice the prison sentence if you have a prior strike offense. A third strike could result in a prison sentence of 25 years to life.

 

Criminal Threats Defensive Strategy

There are many ways that our skilled Phoenix Defense Attorneys can raise a strong defense on your behalf. First, we will examine the facts of the case to determine if the prosecution has enough evidence to obtain a conviction. In particular, we will look at any evidence of the alleged communication. Does the prosecution have copies of an email or voicemail? If the state has nothing more than a he-said-she said case, the prosecution will have a tougher time proving its case.

 

Taking Your Criminal Threats Case to Trial

Even if the prosecution has evidence of the alleged communication, we will examine the nature of the communication. Was the threat a serious one? In other words, did the alleged victim actually fear for his or her safety and was he or she reasonable to have such fear? The prosecution does not have to prove that you intended to carry out the threat, or even that you had the current ability to carry out the threat. However, the prosecution must establish that the threat you made is the type that would have caused the defendant to have a reasonable fear.

If you choose to take your case to trial, we offer skilled Phoenix trial lawyers who will aggressively defend your rights in the courtroom. If you do not want to fight your charges at trial, we can negotiate with the prosecution to seek a favorable plea agreement. Depending on the facts of your case, we may be able to help you keep this off of your record. If that is not possible, we can seek a plea to a lesser offense, including a non-strike offense, or we can seek an agreement on sentencing that will limit the penalties you face. With a team of former prosecutors, the skilled attorneys at the Phoenix Offices of Criminal Defense Lawyers PLLC are highly adept at finding creative solutions for their clients.

Police Get Involved in Phoenix Shooting

Man Shot By Two Phoenix Police Officers

When a police situation turns scary who do you call? On Wednesday night a thirty-two year old man was shot by two Phoenix police officers. However, the man later admitted to charging at the officers with a knife because he actually wanted to shoot them.

The Phoenix Police Sgt. Vince Lewis said that the man was actually part of a domestic violence case. He was carrying a large kitchen knife when he ran towards the officers. That’s when the police did, what they believed was their only choice and opened fire at the man.

Sgt. Lewis’ Statement:

The family reported that the suspect has a mental illness and was consuming alcohol during the evening. The suspect later told police that he charged at the officers to force them into shooting him.

According to the reports, the shooting happened just before 7:30 in the evening.  The police had to be called for a domestic disturbance abuse call. The police said that the call involved an adult man who was mad and threatening to kill his mother and stepfather. What a horrible thing, just because you’re mad at someone, you can’t just decide to kill them.

When the officers arrived to the scene they found a man chasing his own stepfather with a knife.

The officers told the man to drop his knife, however he continued toward them. That is when the officers had to start firing at him.

Sgt. Lewis’ Statement:

Fearing for their lives, and that of the stepfather who was hiding behind police, both officers fired their service weapons, striking the suspect who then dropped the knife, thus ending the violent threat.

 

According to a neighbor, David Rice, the man had chased his stepfather down the street. They got into a confrontation about a block from in front of Mr. Rice’s home.

Apparently the man has schizophrenia and the mother was running down the street to tell the police that.

The suspect, had to be taken to the hospital. He was in “very critical condition”. As of Thursday, he was still in the hospital.

Rice said that the suspect was well known in his neighborhood. The neighbors say that he is usually a pleasant man and is quite often seen riding his bicycle. Rice said that he’s never seen anything before that would make him believe that the young man would turn violent.

Sgt. Lewis said that the two officers who shot at the suspect were: a forty-five year old man who served for 15 years as an officer and the other was a thirty-three year old man with nine years experience as an officer.

Family Homicide

Man Charges With Killing Grandmother Over House Rules

A man pleaded guilty for killing his grandmother last year. He brutally beat her with a shovel and then slit her throat. All of this because of some strict house rules which were curfew rules and how much he had to pay her for rent.

Apparently the man has a violent past. According to the Maricopa County Prosecutors, Jason Eric Howell had also pleaded guilty to child abuse as well as aggravated assault charges for another case he was involved in. The sentencing for that will be this coming July 1st.

Forty year old Jason Howell, was at first charged with “first degree murder, attempted first degree murder, hindering prosecution, and abandoning a body”.

The court records show that Jason had told the police that he had first tried to kill his grandmother, Helen Jean Lee who was seventy-eight years old, in her sleep. However he stopped when she woke up.

Not but a couple days later, Jason then attacked his grandmother with a shovel. He then violently slit her throat. Afterwards he disposed of her body in the desert.

Later, Jason led the investigators straight to his grandmother’s corpse.

Jason’s Grandmother was Missing for Days

Someone had reported the elderly woman missing just days before they found the body. When they went to the grandmother’s home they found a “bloody crime scene” inside of the house.

The police were not strangers to Jason’s home, they had been out on a few calls there before for Jason had hallucinations and “erratic behavior and violent tendencies” that the police had to respond to.

On the same day that his grandmother was reported missing, Jason was arrested on several charges which include: assaulting a police officer as well as kidnapping.

Criminal Defense Cases

If you are suspected of murder, aggravated assault or another violent crime, an experienced criminal defense attorney can secure your rights. A skilled lawyer will not only look for ways to get the charges against you reduced or dismissed but will also focus on developing an effective criminal defense trial strategy. At Criminal Defense Lawyers PLLC, we have a substantial background defending clients accused of violent crimes in the state of Arizona and the greater Phoenix Metropolitan Area. Our lead criminal defense attorney, Daniel Perlman, is a former prosecutor who previously pursued charges against individuals suspected of violent crimes. Mr. Perlman and the entire Perlman Law Group offer a comprehensive view of the criminal justice system and know the right steps to take in developing a defense strategy while seeking to mitigate any potential damage.

Our ability to work with the facts in plea negotiations can turn a weak defense into a strong one. In our experience, a creative approach to your defense strategy can result in a sentence of probation or work release, even on a felony plea.

Effective Defensive Strategy for Violent Crimes

As a starting point for an effective defense strategy, we will evaluate the police report, witness statements and any physical evidence. Criminal Defense Lawyers PLLC takes its approach a step further through identifying creative solutions by focusing on the actual risk of punishment you are currently facing. The threat of prison will probably be based as much on your prior record as it will be on the facts of the current criminal charges.

Our firm handles cases involving all types of Violent Crime allegations, including:

  • Assault and Assault with a Deadly Weapon
  • Murder, Attempted Murder and Manslaughter
  • Weapons Offenses
  • Armed Robbery
  • Kidnapping and False Imprisonment
  • Criminal Threats
  • Gang-Related Crimes
  • Resisting Arrest and Assault on an Officer
  • Domestic Violence

If weaknesses in the government’s case mean that you stand a good chance of success at trial, we will aggressively represent your interests before a jury. If the evidence against you makes a trial too risky, we will advise you and work with all parties — including prosecutors, probation officers, court services and community agencies — to show that you are an excellent candidate for favorable treatment.

Martial Dispute With Extreme Results

Phoenix Woman Arrested for Husbands Death

Being married fights are bound to happen. Does that mean it gives you an okay to shoot your spouse? Probably not. Amanda Lynn Miller is now facing twelve years in prison due to shooting her husband which resulted in his death.

Amanda at first, pled guilty to 2nd degree murder after she shot and killed her spouse. The husband was thirty-six year old, Jesus Nevarez-Galindo.

According to the reports, Amanda had told the police that her husband started a fire in the kitchen before she shot him. When the police arrived to the scene he was already dead.

The investigating police said that there had been a history of domestic violence between Amanda and her husband. The investigators found out that they had been arguing over “financial difficulties” just before the shooting.

Divorce Due to Spouse Abuse

When a marriage is so toxic that you have to put tracking devices on the other person’s vehicle, it’s probably time to get away from the marriage.

Celebrities are no different when it comes to martial disputes. Jason Kidd is a point guard for The Nets is struggling with spousal abuse of his own. According to Kidd his wife, Joumana kicked and punched him and put tracking devices on his vehicles, computers and even taunted him during his games. Due to this extreme behavior he has filed for divorce.

This isn’t something new though, since 2001 the Kidds’ couple has had multiple reports of spousal abuse. Joumana Kid had someone call 911 while Kidd had played for the Phoenix Suns. Why did she call the police? She claims that he had punched her in the face because she didn’t want him eating their son’s French fries.

Things aren’t calming down in the situation though, now Joumana Kidd is filing a lawsuit against her husband. She is claiming there has been “years of spousal abuse” and infidelity. There is a twenty-seven page lawsuit that describes Jason Kidd as a crazy “S.O.B.”.  She also claims that Kidd often beat her, smashed her head against the middle console of their vehicle, threw objects at her, and would frequently go days without talking to her while he was on the road.

Spousal Abuse

Joumana said that she tried to work through their troubles since in 2004 Kidd said he “recommitted” himself to Christianity. Then one time he said that he had a “chemical imbalance” which would cause the issues. Of course things didn’t get any better. According to Joumana there was constant drinking, cheating with strippers and other women, there was also gambling. He would use buying her jewelry to apologize for his horrible behavior.

The local news actually has a map of where Kidd allegedly fool around behind her back.

Friend of Joumana Statement:

She isvery focused. She’s trying to spend as much time with her kids as possible. She’s doing fine. She didn’t want a measure of payback. She tried to have the record sealed.

There are rumors that the Nets are going to trade Kidd before the deadline. Kidd went to Las Vegas for the NBA All Star Game however, he was injured so he couldn’t play.

Hiring the Right Homicide Lawyer in Phoenix

Having a skilled homicide defense attorney is important in any criminal case, but it is even more critical in a murder case. To properly defend a client against a murder charge, a defense lawyer must be prepared to effectively challenge the prosecution’s evidence. To do so, a Phoenix Murder Defense Attorney must be prepared to effectively cross-examine the prosecution’s witnesses, including any expert witnesses.

Expert Witnesses

In some cases, a Phoenix Homicide Defense Attorney may need to use expert witnesses on behalf of the defendant to challenge forensic evidence, ballistics evidence and other scientific evidence presented by the prosecution. We are prepared to do so and have worked with expert witnesses in the past to provide a vigorous defense on our clients’ behalf.

 

In addition to fighting your charges at trial (or seeking a case dismissal for lack of probable cause), we can also negotiate with the prosecution to seek a favorable plea agreement. A plea agreement might involve a plea to a lesser offense or an agreement on sentencing that will significantly reduce the penalties you face.

 

Homicide Defense Strategy

We will take the time to talk to witnesses, investigate what really happened in your case, understand what evidence is in the prosecution’s possession, look for holes in the prosecution’s case, and determine if the police violated your constitutional rights or made other critical errors that can be used to your advantage.

We are committed to raising a strong and comprehensive defense on your behalf. Depending on the facts of your case, the following defenses and strategies may be helpful:

 

  • Self-Defense
  • Insanity
  • Mistaken Identity
  • Suppression of Evidence
  • Challenging DNA, Fingerprint Evidence and other Forensic Evidence
  • Challenging Ballistics Evidence (Relating to Firearms and Bullets)

Phoenix Shooting And Robbery

Robbery Suspect and Fatal Shooting

Phoenix gets slammed with robberies and there’s always a shooting. According to the Phoenix police, a local street vendor who sold food from a cart was sadly gunned down during an attempted robbery.

Sadly, fifty-nine year old Eladio Arrendand0-Estrada was fatally shot on Tuesday night when as he was running for his life from the two suspects who confronted him in a parking lot in north Phoenix.

Sgt. Alan Pfohl said that one of the suspects fired a shot into the ground in front of the victim’s bicycle then shot the victim when he turned and tried to run away from the situation.

Sgt. Pfohl said that the police asked for the public’s help with any information on this case.

The shooting happening near East Bell Road and North 26th Street.

Police Looking for Robbery Suspect

The San Diego Police are staying pretty busy lately had to search for the suspects in two separate robberies of Apple stores in the San Diego area.

According to the local reports, the first robbery took place at the Westfield UTC mall which is at the La Jolla Village Dr. reports started coming in at just a little before eleven a.m. however there was a second incident and it happened around thirty minutes later at the Fashion Valley mall which is located at 7007 Friars Road.

SDPD told local news’ Steve Florinia, that the suspect descriptions at both incidents were a match.

Reports from the police said that three men entered onto the ground level store of the mall and stole an unknown amount of merchandise and then fled into a waiting car. The description of the car was a Chevy four door sedan. The police said that the suspects then of course fled the scene, they mainly got away with computers and cell phones.

The suspects seemed to be in their twenties and were armed with knives. Luckily, they didn’t threaten or harm any customers or employees. The devices were simply stripped from the store’s tables when the thieves yanked them from their cords.

Phoenix Arrest Chili’s Robbery Suspect

Chili’s is a pretty popular restaurant. It’s great for family night or game time. The Phoenix Police have arrested a man who was in connection with the Chili’s which is on N North Valley Parkway on Sunday. The suspect, Jerry Krach was charged with Armed Robbery and Aggravated Assault.

Robberies in Phoenix

The police say that the man had entered the restaurant which is located at, 34710 N North Valley Parkway around 8 in the evening. The man was wearing a mask and was armed with a shotgun. Police say that there were almost thirty people inside of the building as he shot into the ceiling then demanded money.

The man oddly fled the scene on an ATV.  Probably not the best getaway vehicle.

Later, the suspect was seen near 33rd Lane and Via Del Deserto. There he reportedly pointed a shotgun at someone else. A little gun happy that day apparently.

Not long later, the police answered a prowler call. The call came from a mobile home park which was on Black Canyon Highway.

There, a suspect which matched the description of the chili’s shooter. He was detained and identified as Krach.

Police then say he actually admitted to his involvement at the time of the arrest.
