Case Victory: Unlawful Search Leads to Dismissal of 10-Year Felony Charge
Repetto Law, LLC is proud to announce a significant legal victory that not only overturned a potential 10-year prison sentence but also restored our client’s ability to move forward with their life and career.
​
The Case
In October 2023, Providence Police conducted a traffic stop on an out-of-state vehicle for a minor violation. What should have been a routine stop quickly escalated when officers extended the detention without justification and proceeded to search the vehicle and its occupants without consent. During the search, a firearm was discovered on our client, who did not have the necessary Rhode Island permit.
The Legal Battle:
Facing a decade behind bars, our client’s future was on the line. However, Attorney Brianna C. Repetto immediately recognized critical constitutional violations in the way the search was conducted. She filed a Motion to Suppress, challenging the legality of the officers’ actions. Over the course of a three-day suppression hearing, Attorney Repetto aggressively argued that the search was unlawful and that the evidence obtained should be excluded.
​
The Outcome
After carefully reviewing the testimony and evidence, the judge ruled in favor of our client, granting the Motion to Suppress and deeming the firearm evidence inadmissible in court. With the prosecution left with no viable case, the charges were officially dismissed on February 19, 2025.
​
This ruling not only protected our client’s constitutional rights but also secured their future, ensuring they are free to pursue their career and aspirations without the burden of a wrongful conviction.
​
At Repetto Law, LLC, we are dedicated to protecting our clients, defending their rights, and fighting for justice at every stage of the legal process. This case is a testament to the power of strategic defense, relentless advocacy, and our commitment to achieving life-changing results.
