Defenses

In this video, we explore common defenses used in Massachusetts criminal cases. Understanding these defenses is crucial for anyone facing charges. We cover a range of strategies, including self-defense, where the defendant claims they acted to protect themselves or others; alibi, which proves the defendant was elsewhere when the crime occurred; and lack of intent, arguing that the defendant did not intend to commit a crime. Additionally, we discuss entrapment, where law enforcement induces someone to commit a crime they wouldn't have otherwise committed. Join us as we delve into these defenses and their application in Massachusetts, providing valuable insights into navigating the criminal justice system effectively.
