Legal Question in Criminal Law in Massachusetts
Grand Larceny over $250
Three men were arrested for pawning in stolen jewelry. One man wrote a statement saying my boyfriend was the one who committed the crime of the robbery and theft, which is false. Will a statement like that hold up in court? And also, do you have any suggestions on how to win the case? My boyfriend didn't know the jewelry he pawed in was stolen, he was trying to help out a friend.

Any statement is some evidence. Any bit of evidence like this requires some corroboration.
To prevail, your boyfriend's case would have to be analyzed by a criminal defense attorney, as would all of the evidence.

It depends on what other evidence they have against the other parties. Your boyfriend should get an attorney to fight the charge. If you want to set up a consultation you can contact me.

Overall, every bit of evidence is considered by the DA's office, or the jury at the point of reaching trial. That being said, it is given the proper weight dependant on the evidence is believable or not, and as to whether the person making the statement is believable or not.
