Date rape implies that both people knew each other prior to the alleged crime. With the additional layer of personal relationship or relational history, it can be much harder to determine whether sexual activity was in fact unsolicited by the victim or forced by the accused.
With more than 50 years of trial experience, we know that alleging date rape is often used to cover up other issues such as an unwanted pregnancy or infidelity on the part of the victim. We have achieved many successful results based on our:
- Detailed investigative techniques
- Thorough understanding of the limitations of DNA and other scientific evidence
- Informed knowledge of the protocols police officers and the prosecution must follow, which could lead to inadmissible evidence or confessions
- Adept cross-examination of witnesses revealing inconsistencies
Do You Need a Manhattan or Long Island Date Rape Drug Lawyer?
Many date rape cases involve alcohol or drug use, which often affects how one or both parties remember the incident. You may remember no objections to engaging in sexual activity, while your partner is alleging that he or she was in no position to actually give consent. We defend clients who were accused of using date-rape drugs such as rohypnol ("roofies") or GHB to coerce sexual activity. As former high-level prosecutors, we know what tactics to anticipate and proactively build your defense accordingly.
