Share Press Release after the dismissal of the remaining charges in State v. Greg Frazier Shreveport, Louisiana Tuesday, June 7, 2011 Remaining Charges Against Former Southwood High School Softball Coach Greg Frazier are Dismissed Over a year after a Caddo Parish jury acquitted former Southwood softball Coach Greg Frazier of accusations that he molested several of his former players as well as his ex-wife, remaining charges against Frazier have been dismissed. In March 2010, a Caddo Parish jury voted unanimously to acquit Frazier of allegations that he molested a former softball player. Although Mr. Frazier was charged with multiple counts of molestation, the Caddo Parish District Attorney chose to bring him to trial on only one count. Nevertheless, in an effort to prove its case, the prosecutors presented the testimony of all complaining witnesses. The “not guilty” verdict was rendered after two weeks of testimony. Prosecutors presented six complaining witnesses, in addition to an airport security officer, a private investigator. Three complainants were former softball players who asserted that Frazier had repeated consensual sexual relations with them while they played for the Southwood team he coached. The remaining three made allegations that Frazier touched them inappropriately and made lewd remarks. During four hours of questioning by his attorney, Elton Richey, Frazier acknowledged having sexual relations with three of the women who had played on his teams. His testimony explained that the relationships occurred after the women had graduated and were no longer minors, making the relationships lawful. Frazier further explained that he had married and divorced one of the complainants, his ex-wife Tammy, who played softball at Parkway when Frazier coached there in the late 1980’s. The couple had a contentious divorce and child-custody battle that continued through the time of his arrest. Unsatisfied with the verdict, prosecutors decided to bring Frazier back to court on the remaining two counts. That trial was scheduled to begin Monday June 13th. Prosecutors also asked Caddo Parish District Court Judge John Mosley to exclude significant evidence of Frazier’s innocence from the second trial which Richey had presented to the jury at the first trial. That evidence was, key to Frazier’s acquittal. Judge Mosley refused to grant most of the state’s request, and prosecutor’s appealed to the Louisiana Supreme Court. On Monday Morning the Louisiana Supreme Court refused the Caddo Parish District Attorney’s request to overturn Judge Mosley’s decision. Later that day the remaining charges were dismissed Background: Frazier was originally arrested in March of 2007 after a Southwood student accused him of improperly touching her and lewd comments to here when she was in his office at the Southwood softball building. Frazier denied the accusation. Several softball players, including Frazier’s two daughters, were present

Criminal Defense
Shreveport Criminal Defense lawyer Elton Richey makes a difference in the lives of people facing the accidental death of a loved one, a serious disabling injury or unfair criminal charges.
DUI/DWI
Being arrested for DWI is a humiliating experience. Most people are overwhelmed, angered, and confused. If you are arrested for DWI, count on having your body searched, your car searched and towed, being handcuffed, placed in a patrol car, taken to jail, fingerprinted, photographed, and quite literally treated like a criminal. You can also count on some immediate restrictions on your driving privileges.
Wrongful Death
In addition to our core practice area of criminal defense, we also accept select cases involving personal injury, wrongful death or police misconduct. Regardless of the type of case we strive to do only one thing –
Traffic Violations
A police officer’s search of your car is a serious invasion of your privacy. That is why the law prevents the police from merely stopping cars and searching for contraband or evidence of a crime. You always have a right to refuse a police officer’s request to search your vehicle, home, or person. But, if an officer has probable cause to believe that you are carrying contraband in your car, he can still search your car. Likewise, if an officer stops you for a traffic violation, he may be able to search your person and the interior of the car to check for weapons that may be a danger to his safety. Often the police will stop someone for a minor traffic violation and ask permission to search the entire vehicle, even when he does not have any reason to suspect there is evidence of a crime or other contraband in the car. If you consent to a search in such a situation, the officer will be allowed to search the entire car—including looking into the glove box, the console, the trunk, under the seats, and even in the ashtray. Not only will he be allowed to search the car, he is also allowed to open any bags, boxes, purses, or other containers he finds in the car. He will be allowed to search your person, and bring a police dog to sniff inside your car and may even take it to a police impound to have parts removed if he thinks there are hidden compartments. Most importantly, the officer will be allowed to use any evidence or contraband he might find in the vehicle against you in court. Even if it is a small amount of marijuana or other drugs that one of your passengers had on them, or that someone left in the car before you got into it. While some people are of the view that “innocent people have nothing to hide” and should not mind the inconvenience caused by a police search, our founding fathers saw things differently. Having lived under the tyranny of a police state the men and women who drafted our constitution believed that a person’s right to privacy as well as their right to be left alone should be respected. They believed a person should feel secure in their persons, their papers, their houses and effects. That is why they insisted that the fourth amendment be included in the Bill of Rights. A roadside search can take a considerable amount of time and involve considerable embarrassment and inconvenience, even if you “have nothing to hide.” If you do not consent and the officer searches your person or vehicle without lawful authority, then the officer would not be allowed to use anything that he might find as evidence against you in court. Therefore, it is generally best to refuse to let the police search your car. In today’s “zero tolerance” environment, the police will arrest you even if they find a few leaves or marijuana or an open container of beer. Sometimes when a person refuses to allow the officer to search their car, he or she will threaten to obtain a search warrant or call a police dog to sniff the car for drugs. It

White Collar Crimes
During his time in law school, he academically excelled in criminal and constitutional law classes, earning CALI awards in Advanced Topics in Criminal Law, Sentencing Law, and Corporate & White Collar Crime Law. In addition, Mr. Adams participated in the Louisiana State University Prosecution Clinic, in which he was sworn in as a Special Assistant District Attorney by Hillar Moore, the District Attorney for East Baton Rouge Parish. While in the clinic, he received intensive instruction in criminal prosecution techniques and assisted in the prosecution of misdemeanors and felonies. Spending over two years working with the East Baton Rouge Parish District Attorney’s Office, he was introduced to courtroom procedure, refined his legal research skills, helped prosecutors prepare criminal cases, dealt with evidence, and assisted with numerous trials. In addition to obtaining criminal prosecution experience, he developed good working relationships with many of the prosecutors in the office, and those relationships have proven invaluable.
Theft
Misdemeanors
The exact progress of any particular case will differ depending on the practices in the jurisdiction and the complexity of the case. For example, misdemeanor cases tend to move quickly and with less formality. Felony cases move more slowly and deliberately. Federal cases tend to move quicker because caseloads in the Federal Court System are lower than most state court systems.

Murder
Share Here is the full text, and a link to the latest Shreveport Times coverage by Vicki Wellborn of the dismissal of charges against our client Terrence Glaster, who was falsely accused of murder last Christmas. Mr. Glaster is represented by Senior Associate Chris Hatch. MANSFIELD — The shooting death of a Mansfield man almost a year ago remains unsolved. And a criminal charge against an alleged shooter has been dismissed for a second time. Last month, DeSoto District Judge Robert Burgess formally dismissed an indictment handed up in March that accused Terrence Glaster, 31, of second-degree murder in the slaying Dec. 24 of LaDerrick Hadnott. Court records show no reason for the dismissal. The indictment marked the second time Glaster had been accused of Hadnott’s death. He was arrested in January after Mansfield police developed him as a suspect. A grand jury in February declined to indict him, so he was freed.The panel convened the next month after Mansfield police generated more information about Hadnott’s death. Hadnott was discovered dead of a single gunshot to the head in a house on Topeka Street that he shared with a roommate. Glaster’s attorney, Christopher Hatch, raised questions about the investigation and filed a pretrial motion in September seeking disclosure of grand jury testimony, particularly that of investigator Billy Locke. Hatch’s motion takes issue with information Locke provided at a previous hearing during which the detective said he saw or observed Glaster in front of a Grove Street house where a cooperating witness obtained a recording that was presented to the grand jury. “This evidence would be favorable to the defendant for impeachment purposes because it would be inconsistent with Locke’s testimony at the (preliminary examination) held on July 17, 2013, that he did not, in fact, actually see a person that he knew to be Mr. Glaster in front the Grove Street residence,” Hatch’s motion says. Records do not indicate the court ruled on Hatch’s motion since evidence sharing in the discovery phase was ongoing just prior to the decision by the DeSoto district attorney’s office to dismiss the indictment. Mansfield Police Chief Gary Hobbs said the investigation into Hadnott’s death is...

Premises Liability
Discovery: Discovery is the process where each side has the chance to learn about the other side’s case. It takes place is several ways. Commonly depositions are taken of the parties and witnesses. At a deposition the witness is placed under oath and asked questions by the lawyers. A court reporter transcribes the testimony and witness has the opportunity to review their statement. The parties may be required to answer written questions called interrogatories. Interrogatory answers are generally prepared with the assistance of counsel and the party must swear or affirm the truth of the answers.Discovery may also involve the production of documents such as medical records and bills, and physical evidence like photographs of a car or truck crash. It may involve the inspection of the accident scene with an expert witness such as a accident reconstruction expert in a car crash case or a safety expert in premises liability case where merchandise fell on a store customer or the customer was injured by a defect in the property. “We try to take full advantage of the discovery process to learn about the case and prepare you for trial. We will prepare you for your deposition and be there to provide advice as necessary and prevent undue harassment and embarrassment.”
