Woman Charged with Theft of a Credit Card has Case Dismissed After Witness Recants Story

There is not much worse than a son wrongfully accusing his mother of stealing from him – especially when that son is living under her roof. Nevertheless, that was the situation in this case. There was much debate over the facts of the case; however, there was one fact that never changed – our client was being maliciously and wrongfully accused of a crime she did not commit. Once pressed on the issue and questioned in regards to the facts, the son began telling inconsistent stories. Finally, he completely recanted and stated he recalled giving her the card to use. It was only because he was upset with his mother about an unrelated issue that he wanted her to get in trouble. This case was dismissed.
