RSS FeedsCan a plea bargain be overturned in Indiana if the alleged victim recants to the original charges?
August 19th, 2009
The alleged victim accused the defendant of sexual abuse. The prosecuting attorney told the defendant the plea bargain was a one time deal and if he took the deal 4 class A felonies would be dropped. The plea bargain was to plead guilty to a class C felony. The alleged victim has been telling everyone over the past 5 years that the crime did not occur. What can be done about this?
If new discovery is found… A new trial can be had.
