My son is 17 and sometimes does not hang with the best groups, and although I keep an eye on him and keep in contact with him, occasionally something bad might happen. I always worry about that, but I want him to have some independence and be able to do things with his friends.
A few months ago he was at a party and things got out of control. I thought when I told him he could go, that everything would be ok, since I have talked with his friend's parents. Apparently they were all in the backyard and a big fight broke out between a few of the kids. Then more kids got involved trying to protect their friends, and it was all a big mess. The police had to be called to break it up.
A couple of the kids were hurt pretty bad and went to the hospital to be treated. A detective notified me that my son could be charged as one of the attackers. My son said he wasn't involved and his friends would say that he wasn't. However, my son was among the ones charged for this assault. I had to hire an attorney for him, so I looked and found Whitney S. Boan and went in to talk to her. She was very professional and went through everything step by step. The trial is in a few weeks, and I am not too worried after speaking with her. She has helped to put my mind at ease. We'll have good representation and witnesses as well that will say my son is innocent. The detectives have spoken to the witnesses a couple of times, so I don't know how they can still be going with this. But I'm confident my son will not be charged.
