NOT GUILTY VERDICT (CAPITAL MURDER CASE)

After everything my case put me through, I want to publicly thank Mr. Baldemar “Val” Zuniga for standing beside me and fighting hard until the very end. This was not an easy case. The pressure, accusations, and amount of evidence presented by the State were overwhelming at times. But throughout tr...ial, Mr. Zuniga continued to fight for me in court, challenged the State’s evidence, argued aggressively on cross-examination, and never stopped advocating on my behalf in front of a very strict court. What stood out most to me was that he listened. Even when we disagreed on strategy at times, he still took my concerns seriously, reviewed issues I raised, and made efforts to put important matters on the record before trial. During trial, both he and co-counsel fought uphill against difficult rulings and limitations, but they continued pushing forward professionally and strategically. At the end of trial, the jury returned a verdict of NOT GUILTY. I know firsthand how much work, preparation, and pressure goes into defending a capital murder case, and I appreciate the effort Mr. Zuniga put into defending my freedom and my life. Thank you again to Mr. Zuniga and everyone who stood with me through this process.
