Re: vandalizm

The testimony of the eyewitness IS evidence against you.

What was the method of vandalism? If it was graffiti and you were arrested for a "fresh" crime, but they didn't find graffiti tools on you, you may have a good defense. If it was a smashed window, then the only evidence they have might be a broken window and the testimony of the witness.

Do you have an alibi? Did you make a statement to the police? There's just no way to answer your question without all the facts.

If you're underage, a vandalism conviction can impact your driver's license (or your ability to get a license), so you've got a lot on the line.

Good luck.

Re: vandalizm

"just an eyewitness", and you think that isn't evidence? I suggest you hire an attorney who will know how to defend you.

Re: vandalizm

Eyewitness is evidence against you. Probably among the strongest possible evidence.
