On Wednesday, November 23, 2011, a Nye County Deputy Sheriff and NAPSO member was acquitted of all charges in a case that has existed since March 2008. The charges included sexual misconduct with a prisoner, kidnapping and oppression under color of law.
Since those alleged incidents in early 2008, NAPSO has been there to represent its member. The member didn't spend one dime of his own money to defend his good name and reputation. Instead, NAPSO's dedicated team of criminal lawyers and staff, led by attorney Michael Becker of the Las Vegas Defense Group, dug into the case and dismantled the prosecution's case before a jury that took less than 30 minutes to arrive at its verdict.
All told, NAPSO spent more than $150,000 on legal teams who represented the member since 2008. But, that's not the point. The importance of this story is that justice was done and NAPSO's member prevailed. Final results -- that's what NAPSO is all about !! |
