Cochran Firm Criminal Case Results

Representing Clients Nationwide

State of California v. Stefan Eriksson

This is a high profile case that originated in Los Angeles in 2006.  Mr. Eriksson was accused of crashing a $1.5 million dollar Ferrari Enzo on the Pacific Coast highway.  Prosecutors alleged that Erikson illegally imported two luxury Enzo Ferraris as well as a Mercedes SLR McLaren into the United States from Great Britain.  If convicted Erikson faced up to 11 years in prison.  The case was tried to a mistrial and later resolved for a greatly reduced sentence of 2 years.

USA v. Tony Lam

This case was brought in the District Court for the State of Arizona.  It involved the illegal importation of 16,000 counterfeit Nike shoes across the border into Tuscon Arizona as well as the bribery of customs officials.  It is said it was the largest trafficking in counterfeit goods case in America at the time.  The case was resolved very favorably for the defendant through a negotiated plea which reduced his incarceration from 17 years minimum mandatory to three years.

USA v. Bobby Kahn

This case was made in the Middle District of Alabama and involved one of the very first cases of interstate domestic violence charged in the United States.  The defendant was also charged in a parallel case in State Court.  The case was resolved with a dismissal of all charges after a successful defense and acquittal of all charges in the state matter.

State of Alabama v. Kyle Mcdaniel

This is a recent case tried to jury involving allegation of sexual abuse by a step father and a young child.  Often times these are some of the most difficult cases to win.  However, our firm was successful in bringing out all the truth in the case.  The team was also able to discredit the child's mother who was attempting to start up a relationship with another man and was likely the driving force behind the made up allegations.  Mr. Mcdaniel was found not guilty after a three day trial.

State of Georgia v. Angela Gray

This case originated in Georgia and involved a traffic stop where crystal meth was discovered in a vehicle that was owned by the defendant.  The police subsequently asked the driver (who was not our client) to follow them to the defendant's property where a meth lab was discovered.  The defendant was subsequently charged with manufacturing and possession of controlled substance with intent to distribute.  We filed to suppress the evidence due to the illegal actions of the police in the completion of their investigation.  After a long and trying hearing, the Trial Court ruled that the police had in fact search the client's property illegally and all charges were dismissed.  The State of Georgia appealed the decision but the ruling was affirmed on appeal.
