State v. J.A. – First Degree Rape
At Marcilliat & Mills PLLC, our Granville County criminal defense attorneys know that certain North Carolina cities and counties have higher crime rates than others. While that comes as no surprise to most residents, they may be surprised to learn that law enforcement operates differently in higher crime areas than they do in others.
Aggressive and invasive police stops can become routine in counties like Granville, where, according to local statistics, the violent crime rate is 25.1 compared to the U.S. average of 22.7, and the property crime rate is 56.2 compared to the U.S. average of 35.4.
With just over 62,000 residents, the people who live and work in Granville County deserve to be policed and treated fairly, no matter the crime rate the county faces. They also deserve access to the same leading criminal defense strategies as those who live in much larger cities, like Charlotte, Raleigh, Greensboro, and Wilmington. That is what we provide.
With 80+ years of combined legal experience, our North Carolina criminal defense law firm has successfully managed over 6,000 cases throughout the Tar Heel State. We understand no matter who you are, or where you work, if you are facing criminal charges, you need top-notch legal representation to provide the confidence necessary to move forward. We focus on defending serious felony cases; bringing our team of skilled defense attorneys to your county.
When your freedom is at stake, be confident in your defense counsel. You can count on us.
If you have been accused of, arrested for, or charged with a violent crime in Granville County, including aggravated assault, robbery, forcible rape, and murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, it probably did not take long for your to understand that the prosecutor’s office is only interested in imposing the maximum penalties for your case.
This is true because the people most likely to experience high rates of violence and heavy police presence in their communities often have access to fewer resources or the advocacy necessary to tell their side of the story.
We believe the only way our clients can make informed decisions about their futures is if they have all the resources necessary to face their criminal charges with confidence. That is what we provide, no matter how significant your charges appear on paper.
We deliver real-world results for real people who need our help, no matter where they live or work in North Carolina. That is our promise to each of our communities.
Property crimes occur at nearly twice the national average in Granville County. Despite the lesser penalties associated with these crimes, as opposed to their violent counterparts, Granville County residents must understand the importance of mounting a strategic defense for these charges, too.
Property crimes can range from offenses like shoplifting or vandalism to high-level felonies including armed robbery and arson. When Granville County residents are facing significant property crime charges, they must understand that just because no one was hurt during the crime does not mean the prosecutor’s office is going to go lightly on them. Often, it is the opposite. Property crimes give the prosecution the opportunity to “pile on” charges, so the accused may face more than an armed robbery charge, but a weapons charge, endangerment charges, or even an attempted murder charge if the gun is discharged during the crime.
Do not let the prosecutor’s office define your future. Contact our trusted Granville County criminal defense lawyers today to learn more about your legal rights and options to fight these charges based on the admissible evidence and facts of the case — not the prosecutor’s word.
Granville County is in northern North Carolina, sharing a border with Virginia. This is a significant detail in criminal cases, especially when individuals are arrested for drug crimes in Granville County.
If the individual happens to cross over into Virginia to visit a friend, stop for gas, or go through a drive-thru, they can suddenly find themselves facing federal drug trafficking charges.
North Carolina drug laws state that a person commits a drug trafficking offense when he or she knowingly either manufactures, sells, delivers, transports, or possess, or conspires to manufacture, sell, deliver, transport, or possess a controlled substance. Granville County’s proximity to another state can turn a state drug crimes charge into a federal charge, simply by crossing state lines.
We know that those who are facing state or federal charges cannot face prosecutors, U.S. Attorneys, and other legal professionals who have decades of combined experience alone and expect a fair fight. We are here to even the playing field by ensuring your rights are protected from the start of your case, and to expand your legal options, so that together we can pursue the best outcome for your unique circumstances.
