The president of a major software company in San Diego was referred to us by another private investigator.
The client had been accused of rape by his stepdaughter and had been convicted in a court of law.
The client came to us and emphatically refused the charge. In a case like this, we are as skeptical as anyone else but he just kept insisting, “I didn’t do it.”
Our private investigators reviewed trial transcripts in detail after which we interviewed and interrogated trial witnesses.
We then found and interviewed new witnesses until we found a smoking gun which not only cleared our client of all wrongdoing but proved that the mother and stepdaughter conspired to accuse our client of rape in an effort to obtain all the assets in the pending divorce case.
The guilty verdict was overturned, the accusations were proven false and our client was set free.
