The parents of the defendant, a juvenile with ambitions of going to college, hired Attorney Topazio to represent the juvenile at a clerk’s hearing after he was stopped by police and accused by witnesses who alleged that he entered to a parked motor vehicle and removed items therefrom while at a local movie theater. Whoever in the nighttime or daytime breaks and enters a building, ship, vessel or vehicle with intent to commit a misdemeanor shall be punished by a fine of not more than two hundred dollars or by imprisonment for not more than six months, or both. Today through unrelenting questioning of the investigating officer challenging the viability of the Commonwealth’s case, Attorney Topazio convinced the Clerk Magistrate not to issue complaints against his client.
