Client Under Investigation for Drug Trafficking Avoids Prosecution

Kelly Keegan’s client was under investigation for mailing large quantities of controlled substances from the State of California to a house in Champlin, Minnesota. Her client was arrested, and a police investigation continued for over a year. After several conversations between Kelly and law enforcement investigators, the police and prosecutors elected not to bring charges against her client. Kelly oversaw the case to completion by then having records of the arrest removed from the client’s criminal record. Records of an arrest where no charges were ever filed can still appear on a background check and often do, limiting the opportunities of people in situations where the evidence never even supported a criminal charge. It is critical to be thorough and to understand how a stressful situation of an arrest can affect a client in many different ways.
