Garces & Grabler, P.C. sponsors book-signing

admin — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 14:56:14 +0000

On June 4th, 2010 the Law Offices of Garces & Grabler was pleased to sponsor in the city of Trenton a book-signing by Stephanie R. Bush-Baskette, JD, PhD. This round table discussion highlighted key points detailed in her recently published work Misguided Justice: The War on Drugs and Incarceration of Black Women.

The product of years of statistical research, Dr. Bush-Baskette discussed compelling data suggesting the vast divide in sentencing and parole allocations that exist between suburban and primarily minority communities in our urban environments. This divide is a direct product of Federal and State of New Jersey statutes passed with the intention of appeasing political fervor, as opposed to being developed as a result of a practical, clinical view of incarceration and addiction.

Contributions towards this fascinating discussion were offered from attending academics, active political participants, parolees who have been through the system, and criminal defense attorney Jonathan Kessous of the Law Offices of Garces & Grabler.

Congo Attacks Family Member in Princeton, New Jersey

admin — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 01:40:57 +0000

Just when I thought that we had heard the last of the Congo vs. Rivera dog attack in Princeton, New Jersey, word of Congo attacking another innocent victim hits the news. Only this time, the dog’s unprovoked attack was on a family member. Apparently, the dog owner made the wise decision to euthanize Congo and three other dogs.

The dog owner still insists that the dogs did not bite his family member. But the police officer on the scene and the doctor attending the attack victim have a different report of the unprovoked attack. Detective Sgt. Ernie Silagyi said the police officers responding to the scene indicated there “were obvious dog bites.” The attending emergency room doctor said, “this was definitely dog bites, not scratches.”

Giovanni Rivera, a Honduran immigrant, was brutally attacked by a German shepherd named Congo and four of his pups while working at the dog owner’s home. Mr. Rivera received a $250,000 settlement for injuries caused by the attack through the representation of Kevin Riechelson. This case received national and international attention because it raised issues related to immigration. Read more about the Congo case

Jonathan Kessous , a senior associate in the Criminal/Municipal Court Defense Unit of Garces & Grabler , won full acquittal verdicts after a two-week trial before the Honorable Joseph Rea, J.S.C. The defendant, who faced charges of 2nd degree offenses of Possession of Loaded Firearms/Certain Persons Prohibited from Carrying Firearms, would have faced a 10-year prison term, and would not have been eligible for parole for five years.

Under New Jersey Criminal Statutes, there are two distinct types of weapons charges: Possession of Weapons for Unlawful Purposes, and Unlawful Possession of Weapons.

Possession of Weapons for Unlawful Purposes is having a gun, firearm or weapon for the purpose of using it unlawfully against a person or property, such as in committing a crime.
