In North Carolina, the prosecution only needs to prove an intent to cause physical or psychological harm to secure a harassment conviction, regardless of unintended consequences. Actions that unintentionally cause distress are generally not considered harassment. For example, playing music too loud without realizing it carries to a neighbor differs greatly from repeatedly blasting music to intentionally cause distress.

Common defenses include free speech protections, unintended consequences where no distress was intended, and arguing that actions were insensitive rather than criminal. A Raleigh criminal defense lawyer at the Law Office of Dewey P. Brinkley can build the right defense for your situation.

Being pulled over on suspicion of drinking can be upsetting, but remember, you're not powerless.

Always be courteous with police, but avoid chatting or volunteering information because even saying you had one glass of wine gives the officer probable cause to investigate further.

An arrest does not automatically mean you'll be charged with a crime.

Prosecutors review the evidence and decide what charges to file. For misdemeanors, charges may come quickly, while felony cases might go before a grand jury where you do not get to present your side. This one sided process is exactly why having a Raleigh, NC criminal defense lawyer involved early matters. We can sometimes present information to prosecutors before charges are filed, potentially preventing them altogether or getting them reduced.

Don't wait to get legal help. Visit https://www.deweybrinkleylaw.com/ or call (919) 832-0307 and set up a free consultation right away.

Your constitutional right against self incrimination exists to protect you, regardless of whether you're guilty, innocent or somewhere in between.

Invoking this right does not make you look guilty, it makes you look informed.

Police may suggest that only guilty people refuse to talk, but that is false. Innocent people are wrongly convicted every year, often because they tried to explain their side without legal counsel. Your words can be twisted, taken out of context or misremembered in police reports. Our Raleigh, NC criminal defense lawyer, Dewey P. Brinkley, can protect your rights from the very start. Visit https://www.deweybrinkleylaw.com/ or call (919) 832-0307 and schedule a free initial case consultation today to learn more.
