In a groundbreaking ruling, the Appeals Court has ruled that Teresa Valdez is to be cleared of all criminal charges against her, following an appeal by her attorney, Terrence Fogel. Fogel brought his case before the Appeals Division on the 10th of April, arguing that Valdez rights were violated by the SABI investigation and there was a lack of reasonable doubt. 

 

The initial investigation from SABI was brought up following the arrest of Mike Marschall for multiple felonies, in where Valdez was accused of perjury and neglect of public duty. The case was fast moving, finishing within 2 days on the 8th of April, ordering Valdez to sentenced to 3 months in prison. 

 

Following the case, Alexandra Forge immediately brought a suit against Valdez, accusing her of negligence against her client (Mike Marschall), despite Forge's rage in the courtroom, repeatedly speaking out of line and very hostile towards Terrence Fogel, the Justice Eric Sanford was quick to bring the court to order, ordering that Valdez cannot be held responsible, ordering that "The plaintiff does not have any claim due to the principle of contributory negligence." 

 

In a ruling issued a hour ago, Justice Bruce Mayner reversed the lower courts decision, arguing that the standards of beyond a reasonable doubt could not have been met. He also argued that the courts lack of time could not establish proper clarity. 

 

Quote

That the lower courts decision shall be reversed for reasons of; 

  • Lack of time dedicated to establish clarity of the type of interrogation being conducted.
  • Due to lack of time to establish clarity, the criminal standard of beyond a reasonable doubt could not have been attained.

 

A statement issued by Terrence Fogel to LSNN.

 

Quote

We're thrilled that the appellate court found that the lower courts conduct of the proceedings was a sham and also found the investigators incompetence, and you can quote me on that.

 

We don't think there will be any strife with the PD as the charges have been dropped and there should be no reason why miss Valdez cannot continue working as an officer of the law. Any future plans I'm not at liberty to discuss currently.

LSNN has reached out to Los Santos Police for a comment and will enclose it once we collect it.
