Legal Question in Criminal Law in New Jersey

It sounds like there is more to the story - schools usually don't send students to the police statement for a single excited statement. Was he charged by the police? If there are criminal charges pending you need to retain a criminal attorney, if you can afford one. If he was charged he will have to appear before a judge and face possible penalties. He should not make any statements to the police or anyone else until you consult with an attorney.

If you would like to discuss your matter further over a free phone consult, please contact me at your convenience.

If it happened exactly like that, this is ridiculous and you should fight it.

I suspect that it did not happen just like that.

You want to talk to a lawyer near you who can handle such a thing. I am very far away.

Good luck with this. You need to know what really happened, then you need a lawyer.

There are no options. You have one option, to hire an attorney for him. I agree that it is bizzare that one such comment could lead to a criminal charge. What is the full context of the comment? Call me, if you like.
