Penn Station Exposure / lewdness charges dismissed for medial professional

2020

Our client was arrested for allegedly masturbating with another person in a urinal inside Penn Station. After giving the police a statement, he was arrested and released with a desk appearance ticket charging him with lewdness and exposure. He contacted us for help when he realized that conviction could lead to a permanent criminal record and up to a year in jail. We filed a motion to suppress the evidence and force the prosecutor to disclose the evidence they had against our client. After several months of litigation, we successfully negotiated a deal to have our client plead guilty only to the reduced and added charge of disorderly conduct, a violation and not a crime, and there would be no jail and no criminal record.
