Representative Cases
-
State of Oklahoma v. Johnson – Mr. Johnson was charged with first degree rape based on the state’s theory that the complaining witness was too intoxicated to consent to a sexual encounter. Through diligent preparation and careful cross-examination, Tim and co-counsel established testimony that hours lapsed between the witness’s last consumption of alcohol and the time of the very brief sexual encounter. After a brief deliberation, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty.
-
State of Oklahoma v. Flores – Mr. Flores was charged with sexual battery following allegations by two young women who worked with Mr. Flores at a restaurant. Tim developed testimony at trial that provided the jury valuable context. The jury found Mr. Flores not guilty of sexual battery but guilty of simple assault and battery and sentenced him to 1 day in jail.
-
State v. Cooper
-
State v. Creamer – Mr. Creamer was charged with two counts of first-degree rape and one count of sodomy. The charges were filed as Mr. Creamer was litigating a divorce. Tim defended Mr. Creamer through preliminary examination and jury trial. Following a contentious trial, the jury found Mr. Creamer not guilty of all charges.
