Mr.
Petrus worked exclusively in adult sex crimes for over three
and a half year while working as a probation officer: He now
brings this experience to your defense. He has dealt with experts,
drafted lie detector questions, interpreted responses, analyzed
results from Static 99 reports (a device that estimates probability
of recidivism), reviewed Abel assessment reports (a sexual predilection
assessment tool) and other diagnostic-psychiatric reports based
on DSM-IV criteria. He has received countless hours of specialized
training in sex crimes. He has searched computers for child pornography
and assisted in the charging of defendants with crimes thereof.
Since sex crimes often carry particularly long sentences
(including life in prison in some instances) and given the
overzealousness of many district attorneys to force long and
harsh prison sentences on such defendants, if you have been
accused of a sex crime, you will need a knowledgeable and dedicated
defense lawyer. Moreover, the Federal Bureau of Investigations,
the Manhattan District Attorney Office, the Bronx District
Attorney Office, the Kings District Attorney Office, the Queens
District Attorney Office, the Richmond (Staten Island) District
Attorney Office, and the Westchester District Attorney Office
all have specialized prosecutorial units dedicated solely to
the prosecution of accused sex offenders.
Hire an attorney who
is similarly dedicated to your case, to your defense. Allow Mr.
Petrus to bring his particular knowledge
in the area of sex crimes to you. Your life may depend on it.
