if i were facing Felony hit and run and dwi charges in texas and could show that the DA and the police were acting inappropriately could i get off?I think the wife of a police officer may be involved in a facebook page and may have gotten information about me and the case to post for the public.If I couldnt get actual proof could the judge still decide on some kind of mistrial or something?
Optional Information: State/Country relating to question: Texas
Just so I have this correct, the wife of one of the officers posted information about you on a facebook page?
A judge can dismiss a case because of outrageous police or prosecutor conduct, but in every case I am aware of (and there aren't many), it was something they did in relation to the investigation or prosecution of the case itself.
I'm not aware of any case in Texas in which a case was dismissed for outrageous police conduct based on something a relative of one of the officers did.
In my opinion, what you've described so far is not likely to benefit your case in a meaningful way.
There may be an internal affairs issue with the police department, but it is not going to impact your case.
Sorry for the bad news, but I can only give you an honest assessment of your case.
Do you have any questions?
Not bad news at all as I am actually not the defendant.
I do have some other questions relating to this case though as was hoping to get you to answer them as well. y
