DRUG CHARGES DISMISSED COLUMBIA COUNTY

The Columbia County District Attorney's Office recently agreed to dismiss criminal charges against our client for possessing THC and drug paraphernalia.  The client was charged for possession after medical personnel was dispatched to his home.  The prosecutor voluntarily dismissed the charge after our attorneys raised a defense under section 961.443 of the Wisconsin Statutes, which provides immunity for individuals who contact law enforcement or emergency technicians in the event of a drug overdose.
